Williamsville district to use New York HELPS waiver to speed hiring for clerical and custodial positions
Summary
The district announced active recruitment for clerical staff and custodians and said the New York HELPS program allows temporary waiving of the civil service exam requirement to accelerate hiring and focus on candidate experience.
The Williamsville Central School District said it is hiring for several essential positions, including clerical staff and custodians, and that "thanks to the New York HELPS program, we can streamline our hiring process by temporarily waiving the civil service exam requirement for employees." The district said the waiver lets it emphasize candidates’ training and experience.
The presenter described this as a temporary measure enabled by the New York HELPS program; the statement did not specify how long the waiver will be in effect, how many positions will be filled, or whether the change will alter pay scales or civil-service status after hire.
Applicants were directed to the district newsletter and website for application links. The presenter framed the effort as a chance to "make a meaningful impact within our school community."
