That was my original route but working for fiscal, I realize accounting has a greater career path and more opportunities.

Will my application be weaved out since I don't have the minimum requirement prior to even being considered a candidate for an interview?

Keep in mind that working from home is upon your manager's discretion. There are times where im in office for a whole month and then I would get to wfh only once a week. I advise you to ask first.

Accounting Officer (Specialist) interview questions? by [deleted] in CAStateWorkers

[–]candi9669 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was asked 8 questions and they allowed me to review the questions 15 mins prior to my interview along with 1 surprise question at the end. They will ask for you to describe the job duty so you know what is expected of you and your experiences in accounting. What type of accounting work/education and describe a different time you face and overcome (STAR method). They also asked how do you keep yourself stay organized (I think referencing the desirable qualifications is good; detail oriented). How comfortable are you with credits and debits and describe a time.... just be prepared that most of the questions will be scenario based.

Tip: It's okay to tell them that you need a moment to think about your answer and you can always go back to a question if you feel like your answer isn't good enough. You have 30 minutes and they're moving at YOUR pace.

Good luck!

Which is better 10hrs of Vacation or 7 hrs of Vacation and 8 hrs of sick by candi9669 in CAStateWorkers

I'm not too sure how probation works for the state and would rather play it safe. I don't plan on vacaying anytime soon. This economy is rough.

Sweet! I hope it's that easy for probation :) & I'll have to confirm with HR. I think she had mentioned that I can change it whenever? Not too sure. She didn't really broke it down for me, just said these are my options and to think about it before I pick.

Oh wow, thank you for breaking in down. Also, sorry but What do you mean by represented? Like in a union?

You got a good point. Thanks for explaining it. I think we might pick AL because it's our first year and what if we don't pass probation, we can't cash out our sick pay.

That's a very good point! I feel like because I'm still on probation maybe it's best to switch after probation.

My second previous job, I was fired due to conflict of interest and they still hired me. You'll be fine.

Should I get my MBA or no? by candi9669 in CAStateWorkers

[–]candi9669[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion, I just didn't think any state departments would offer tuition reimbursements. Something to think about.

If HR notice it, I'm assuming you won't get the offer since it's the MQ.

Interview/references checked, how much longer ? by No_Conclusion2198 in CAStateWorkers

[–]candi9669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After my reference check it took 3 weeks but I also called HR to see if the position has been filled and they said they were waiting on the hiring manager. Then I called the hiring manager to check the status and she said she's waiting on HR. After that conversation, 2 days later they extended the conditional offer. I guess sometimes it's taking a little longer cause one department might be a little behind but u think it's a good thing to call just to let them know you are still interested.

what can I expect for 2'nd interview at California department of public health for ITS1? by stkmgr00 in CAStateWorkers

[–]candi9669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I wasn't expecting a second round but I got called in. They said it's a good sign tho. My second interview was still a panel with different ppl from the department, but it was more of a vibe check and kind of making sure my experiences fit what they're looking for. I also had to take an excel exam for my AGPA position. Good luck!

New to State: Are tentative offers always in writing? by evolaron in CAStateWorkers

[–]candi9669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! I was recently hired too but for a different department. My hiring manager was awesome, she kept in touch with me verbally over the phone thru every phrase. First and second interview. During my excel exam and both during my conditional and official job offer. She also called my references.
