katharine, only late yesterday I discovered human resources at ecology will
only consider as candidates for the position those already on the register
and that the register was closed. this can work against us for specialized
positions since the agency does not have 'fish biologist' or 'forest
ecologist' job descriptions--it has 'environmental specialists', the
description of which would not generally attract candidates with fish or
forestry backgrounds.
while it may not help in this particular case, I suggest anyone interested
in the type of position I posted earlier apply to washington's college
recruitment program (crp) at
http://hr.dop.wa.gov/statejobs/crp.overview.htm. this is an alternative
method used to fill various natural sciences vacancies with recent masters
and bachelors graduates. the recruitment is multi agency and statewide, the
application process is fairly easy, and as far as I can tell is currently
open.
I regret wasting anyone's time.

I contacted WA State Department of Personnel re: this position and was
informed that to apply one would already need to be on the Specialist
2-3 pool list. I was told that this list is not open for new
applications at this time, so essentially, there is no recruitment for
this position at this time. I've attached the message from the DOP
staff member, in case others were interested in this position as well.

Ok, it looks like candidates would have to be on the Environmental
Specialist 2-3 pool already. Those who are in this 'pool' are notified
of
job openings such as the one below, and they have the option to apply or
not. The pool is not open right now and that would be the first step.
I
know it states to contact DOP for a copy of a recruitment, but there is
no
recruitment right now. The last time this was open was in March of this
year. In order to find out when this is to open again, you would need
to
contact Georgia Fraizer here at DOP 360-664-6253 or Misty Ricky of
Ecology
at the number below.
I hope this helps, sorry for the confusion
