Exam /Credential Assessment 

Civil Service Examinations

There are jobs at CSU that require applicants to take exams.  We administer and score exams following guidelines established by: State Universities Civil Service System (SUCSS).

If an in-person exam is required for the position you are applying for, you will need to schedule it in advance and take it on campus. If the position requires a credentials assessment, an HR Team Member will examine your application materials.

Civil Service Credential Assessments

As part of the Civil Service Examination Process, CSU will conduct open and continuous testing.  This allows an applicant to schedule a review of their credentials for any classification, regardless of whether a vacancy exists.  After the request, the review process should occur within 15 days.  For this purpose, we allow qualified applicants to request and have their credentials reviewed for any civil service classification. 

All Civil Service position titles listed at Chicago State University are subject to State Universities Civil Service Section 70/36d, section 1.3 of the Examination Procedures Manual for Open & Continuous testing procedures.
