Pot. to be hired for 2 jobs with the same civil service title on the same day - need some info pls
I tried to ask DCAS, but didn't get much. So I am seeking reddit support.
Context:
I am reachable on a civil service title list. I have already reinstated twice, so I have 1 more to go.
I was eligible for a dream job because I am on this list, and so I applied & interviewed.
I was called for a hiring pool interview on Monday through the list. This will be the first hiring pool I've attended. However, I was also given a verbal job offer from that other dream job today (plan to accept on Monday). This offer is with a different department than the hiring pool position.
My primary worries & questions are:
- If I can no longer reinstate for this title before obtaining a start date with the dream job, will I no longer be eligible for the dream job, since I was only able to apply because I am on the list? Could they rescind the offer for that reason, or am I locked in after signing the conditional offer with OMB?
I assume many people will say I should just bomb every hiring pool interview that pops up until I get my start date/offer, and that is fair. I am autistic and suffer from perfectionism, and I am very high up on this list (in the top 20). I guess this could be a test to work on my perfectionism..
- If I were to fail my own test, though, and I were to get an offer through the hiring pool, can I accept two jobs on the same day for the same title, even if they are for 2 separate departments, and then just decline the hiring pool position afterward, as I don't want it as much?
Sorry, this post asks a lot of questions all in one. I likely am overthinking. I just hate when I don't understand the rules of a system as seemingly complicated as the nyc civil service titles.
