During this period, candidates are not required to retest. If a candidate applies and qualifies for another job using the same 2588 Health Worker 4 Exam within one year of the 2588 Health Worker 4 Exam date, their score will be automatically applied to that announcement. After one year, a candidate can either (a) apply their test score to the other announcement or (b) re-test. Re-testing is allowed after one year from the date of the test only if a candidate applies and is qualified. The most recent score becomes the official score if a candidate chooses to retest.</p><p>If the examination undergoes significant changes in the future, the use of banked scores may change. Candidates with banked scores would be required to re-take the exam sooner than the three-year period if they apply to a job opportunity using the same modified exam.</p><p><strong>Language Proficiency Exam: </strong>For positions requiring bilingual proficiency, candidates that meet the language requirement must pass a department-approved language exam before appointment.
