MANILA, Philippines — The Civil Service Commission (CSC) on Monday said senior office equipment technicians interested in applying for government positions may now take advantage of the special eligibility the agency offers.

The Senior Office Equipment Technician A and Senior Office Equipment Technician B positions are now included in the list of positions for equipment technician eligibility under Category II of CSC Memorandum Circular No. 10 series of 2013.

CSC chairperson Karlos Nograles, in a statement, said this  means that “qualified individuals will no longer be required to take the Career Service Examination to gain eligibility and apply for plantilla positions.”

The special eligibility can be obtained only by completing one year of “very satisfactory” actual performance under the temporary status of appointment.

However, filing of applications after the expiration of the one-year temporary appointment may be allowed provided the applicant is still in the service with the same position title.

The complete information and requirements for eligibility are available on the CSC website.
