City government openings this month - first time posting

I found several public-sector postings with benefits and a steady schedule. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. Applications close on a fixed date and need a full work history. How long did it take to hear back?

Sign up for email alerts on the city's job page. New postings often close within two weeks.

The exam was simple, mostly clerical skills. Practice material is usually on the same website.
