If you're considering applying, be sure to carefully review the job descriptions and application requirements. Many roles in state government require submitting a resume, cover letter, and sometimes additional materials like college transcripts — so it’s a good idea to gather those documents in advance.

State of Michigan Jobs

State of Michigan: For those of you who are interested in public service opportunities, you can browse current openings at this website. If you see an opening that you think is a good fit, you can look at the job specifications posted at the Michigan Civil Service Commission website to understand how your skills, qualifications, and experiences match up against the criteria that will be used to determine whether a candidate qualifies for a particular role. Keep in mind that many state job applications require candidates to submit college transcripts, so if you’re considering applying, it’s a good idea to obtain a digital copy of your transcripts in advance.
