What the Technical Assistant Evidence Handling family covers

Technical Assistant Evidence Handling is a graded series in the New Jersey civil service classification plan, running 2 title codes across 2 levels. Every title in it is a state title, so the employer is a state department, commission or authority rather than a county or municipality.

Office support is where New Jersey's classification plan is at its most granular. Typing, transcription, stenography, records, reception and general clerical duties each became their own series, and each series then split into state and local versions, which is why the catalog holds so many near-identical clerical codes. For applicants this granularity is mostly good news: it means a lot of separate eligible lists, most of them asking for a high school diploma and no experience, and it makes clerical work the most common way people enter the system and then transfer sideways.

The ladder, ordered by pay

Ordered by what they actually pay rather than by the number in the title, the Technical Assistant Evidence Handling rungs look like this. Here the numbering happens to agree with the pay order, which is not guaranteed elsewhere in New Jersey's plan.

The distance from the bottom of Technical Assistant Evidence Handling 1 to the top of Technical Assistant Evidence Handling 2 is $30,644, an increase of about 66% over the entry minimum.
