How to Apply for a Job at the OWRB
There are two distinct types of employment at the Water Board:
classified service, which includes those employees and positions
under the jurisdiction of the Oklahoma Merit System, and unclassified
service, or those employees and positions excluded from coverage
of the Oklahoma Merit System.
To apply for a Classified Service
position:
This process begins at the Office of Personnel Management
(OPM), located in the basement of the Jim Thorpe Building, 2101
N Lincoln Blvd., in Oklahoma City. After reviewing OWRB job vacancies, if there is a specific job that interests you and the position is classified, an official State of Oklahoma Employment Application may be downloaded or completed online at the Web site of the State Office of Personnel Management. Pay special attention
to education and experience requirements printed on the job announcement
to see if you meet the minimum qualifications for the position. If a test is required, only applicants
who have been certified as possessing the minimum qualifications
may test. Examination results will be mailed to you. If you receive
a passing score your name is entered on the register and ranked,
along with other applicants, according to criteria established
by the OPM with input from state agencies that use the job
family.
When the Water Board has a position to fill, we ask OPM
for a certificate or register, which includes the names of persons
who have been certified as qualified for a particular position.
We then conduct interviews and select from among the highest
ranked applicants according to the merit rules. The OWRB can
also consider qualified candidates who are currently in the classified
service that submit an OPM Form 4b.

recruitment announcement (employment ad, etc.).
