Monmouth County Division of Social Services (MCDSS)
"Your Needs Are Our Concern"
MCDSS is part of the Monmouth County Department of Human Services, the largest department in Monmouth County government. We employ about 460 employees and provide financial assistance, child support services and social services to Monmouth County residents.
MCDSS is a government employer and follows New Jersey Civil Service Commission hiring procedures. New Jersey Civil Service Commission job descriptions are utilized for all MCDSS positions. New Jersey Civil Service Commission holds tests for job titles in the Competitive Division and issues lists of persons who have passed the tests. Job vacancies at MCDSS can be found on the Internet at http://www.state.nj.us/csc/. Positions are posted for two weeks and deadlines for registration are listed for each position. Job descriptions and salaries also can be accessed at this site.
Certain entry-level positions such as Clerk and Clerk Typist are in the Non-Competitive Division. This means that there is no Civil Service test given; MCDSS hires applicants on the basis of education, skills, and experience. Applications may be obtained from the MCDSS Personnel office or requested by phone (732) 431-6220.
