Departmental Re-employment represents CDCR employees impacted by placement and/or layoff. This type of list takes precedence over all other lists. The first interested individual on the list must be selected (Rule of One Name). This means, if the hiring organization is using a promotional list to make a hire, the hiring program cannot move to the next name or any other list until the interested eligible is hired or the person waives (i.e., is not interested in the position).
General Re-employment represents non-CDCR employees who have been impacted by placement and/or layoff. The three highest names on the list shall be certified for employment (Rule of Three Names). If those on the list of interested eligible names are all on General Re-employment, the hiring program may choose anyone of the three. If there are two interested names on a General Re-employment list, a hiring program can move down to the next rank on their list to make a hire.
