Testing & Validation

The Testing and Validation Section is responsible for initial skills testing and screening of applicants to determine eligibility for a position. We are also responsible for all competitive examinations, promotional examinations, and employment interviews in the classified service. The Section ensures valid examination and interview procedures in accordance with the Federal Uniform Guidelines for Employee Selection Procedures, as well as compliance of test construction and test development to other applicable federal standards.

GENERAL INFORMATION:


A MESSAGE TO CANDIDATES WHO TOOK THE JUNE 2008 OR OCTOBER 2008 CITY OF MIAMI POLICE OFFICER BASIC RECRUIT EXAMINATIONS

On May 7, 2009, a hiring freeze was instituted by the City Manager. As a result, no action is being taken in the hiring process for the Police Officer classification. It is not known at this time how long this freeze will remain in effect, but please be aware that in accordance with the City’s Civil Service Rules the names of all candidates who took the June 2008 Police Officer Basic Recruit exam will remain on the current eligibility register. Once the City Manager lifts the hiring freeze, the Miami Police Department (MPD) will continue to process candidates who earned a passing score on the June 2008 Police Officer Basic Recruit exam. After MPD has completed processing candidates from the June 2008 exam administration, the June 2008 eligibility register will be terminated, and the Department of Employee Relations will establish the October 2008 eligibility register. After the October 2008 eligibility register is established, candidates who completed all parts of the examination may view their results online at www.miamigov.com/employment, or pick up their yellow eligibility card from the Testing and Validation Section of Employee Relations, Monday through Friday, from 9 AM – 4:30 PM, excluding legal holidays (444 SW 2nd Avenue, Suite 746, Miami FL 33130; 305-416-2011.)

Please continue to call the Testing Results Hotline at 305-416-1985, or visit the City of Miami’s website (www.miamigov.com) for updates on the lifting of the hiring freeze, the continued processing of passing June 2008 candidates, and the release of the October 2008 exam results. This message will only be updated after new information is available. If you check back and this message is the same, please understand that the situation remains as is.

Your continued patience is very much appreciated.

Thank you.
