Question: What is the difference between a classified and unclassified employee?
Answer: Classified employees are part of the state's civil service system.
They have certain rights and protections through that system, and are considered
insulated from political and non-governmental pressures. Employees who serve in
unclassified positions are generally appointed by elected officials or cabinet
officers and serve at the pleasure of the official who appointed them. These positions
do not have the protection of the civil service system. All employees of the Secretary
of State's office are unclassified.
Question: How do I apply for a job with the agency?
Answer: Open positions are posted on our HR-Job Opportunities page. You are also
welcome to submit a general application for employment when no specific positions are open.
