Series Concept

Under supervision, Students perform duties ranging from unskilled to skilled and/or specialized in a variety of positions that typically require the use of manual, clerical, advising, public contact, and/or analytical skills, and perform other related duties as required.

The series is characterized by the generally temporary nature of appointments, the general absence of continuing responsibility for the work performed, and the diversity of duties that may be assigned.

The Student series consists of four levels, with the distinction between levels based on the relative degree of difficulty inherent in the manual, clerical, advising, public contact, and/or research related duties performed; the extent of assigned responsibility for coordinating the work of other employees and the availability of free time for such activities as studying and reading during work hours.

Typical duties performed at the various levels in the series are determined by the special requirements of the positions involved.
