DHCS is focused on hiring strong, collaborative leaders to drive transformative changes and advance equitable health care access across California.
Executive-level roles are available through Career Executive Assignments (CEA) and Exempt appointments.
CEA Positions
A CEA is a senior management role in state civil service that helps develop, implement, and manage policies in their area of responsibility.
If you are interested in these Executive-level positions, you should apply for an open CEA position on CalCareers by submitting your examination/application package (by mail or through CalCareers). This package includes the STD 678 Examination/Employment Application and answers to the supplemental questions listed in the job advertisement. Note that you may also need to include a resume as part of the application package.
The examination/application package will be reviewed and scored based on your knowledge and experience. The top-scoring candidates will be placed on an eligibility list for the CEA position and will be considered for further steps in the hiring process.
