383C.043 VACANCIES.
Whenever a position in the classified service becomes vacant the appointing authority, if it
desires to fill the vacancy, shall make requisition upon the civil service director whereupon the
civil service director shall certify the names of the three persons highest on the reemployment
list, or where there is no reemployment list the director shall certify the names of the three
highest on the promotional list. In case there are less than three names on the reemployment or
promotional lists, the director shall certify the number of names remaining on said lists willing
to accept appointment provided that no name shall be certified from an employment list as long
as there is a reemployment list or a promotional list for the class. The appointing authority
shall at its discretion appoint one of the persons so certified for the working test period. At the
end of the working test period the appointing officer shall notify the civil service director in
writing whether the probationer is a satisfactory employee and should receive the status of a
permanent appointee. Upon such notice the employee, if service during the working test period
did not fall below such minimum standards as have been prescribed by the civil service director,
shall be deemed to have a permanent classified civil service status; otherwise the employee
is automatically separated from the service.
