The State's classification system is broken down by job categories. Each job category has assigned job codes. Job codes use the format 1AA1 through 9ZZ7. The first number of the job code indicates the job category, while the last number indicates skill level. Any new hire will start at the minimum of the salary range, unless otherwise posted. The descriptions listed for each job category are to be used as a general guideline and may not be all inclusive.
