Original Entrance Opportunities

Original entrance announcements are open to everyone. Unless residency is waived on the announcement, you must be a current resident of Orleans Parish. Sometimes examinations are both original entrance and promotional. If this is the case the announcements are posted under original entrance and promotional.

It is important that your application show all the relevant education and experience you possess. Applications may be rejected if incomplete. Resumes cannot be submitted in lieu of an application. Please review our General Information and Requirements page.

Thank you for your interest in employment with the City of New Orleans.
