About the Civil Service Test
In order to ensure fairness, the Civil Service Commission administers job-specific tests that are designed to measure the applicant's knowledge, skills, and ability to perform the advertised position.
A knowledge, skills, and abilities section is included in the job announcement. More than likely, the Civil Service Commission will base the questions on the written test and the physical agility test (if any) on this section.
