2. What is the procedure for Civil Service exams?: Civil Service exams are given by the Dutchess County Human Resources Department. Exam notices for specific titles are listed on the Dutchess County Website and are also posted at the Hyde Park Town Hall. Notices are posted anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks prior to the examination date and applications can be completed online or in person at the Dutchess County Office Building, 5^th floor. When the town has a vacancy for a competitive class position, we request and canvass a list that the county provides from examinations that have been previously given.
