Introduction

This pamphlet is not meant to serve as your only study source. It is by no means an all-inclusive resource. For more extensive study we refer you to the civil service test preparation guides such as ARCO, Barron's and KB Books. This study material includes questions similar to those found on previous county exams, and covers the pertinent topics listed on the current county job announcement.

We hope you find it helpful!

In the interest of clarity and understanding, the pronoun "he" and its various forms (his, him, etc.) have been used. These pronouns are used in a neutral, generic sense to reference a third person in the simplest and most direct manner available with the English language.
