“Interview and Hire” jobs are entry-level positions that range from grades five (5) to eight (8). They are filled directly by individual State Agencies or facilities and do not require a competitive examination like most other State positions. The Comptroller of Maryland accepts applications for Interview and Hire positions on an ongoing basis and keeps them on file for a year. When a vacancy in one of the classifications occurs, the Personnel Office contacts persons with an active application on file. A list of the Interview and Hire classifications utilized by the Comptroller of Maryland and the minimum requirements for each classification are noted below.
