DESCRIPTION
Under general supervision, to do difficult clerical work, requiring the exercise of considerable initiative and judgment, within the framework of County or department policies and procedures; and to do related work as required. DISTINGUISHING FEATURES This is a specialized clerical class. Incumbents of positions in this class perform duties requiring the exercise of initiative and judgment significantly beyond that of the journey-level class of Clerk II. The majority of the duties assigned must fall into one of the following four categories: 1. Positions responsible for regularly eliciting information from or giving information to people in various stressful situations. The stressful situations mainly occur in 'direct (face-to-face) personal' contact. Positions also fall into this category when, because of the situation and the type of clientele, the actual threat of bodily harm exists on a regularly recurring basis. Often the Specialist Clerk I is the public's initial contact with the County system. Such positions may be found in the Health Care Services Agency, Probation Department, Public Defender's Office, Social Services Agency, and the Sheriff's Office. 2. Positions responsible for independently resolving problems for which there is no immediate policy or clear precedent. Such positions may function in an isolated location or field office, or function as 'Office Coordinators' for units with no ongoing, on-site clerical supervision. 3. Positions which require a specialized knowledge (as opposed to a general or a working knowledge) of broad and complex procedures, systems, rules, codes, and policies in order to perform their assigned duties. Such positions normally require a minimum of six months to one year of training in order to make independent decisions and determinations based on this specialized department and program knowledge. 4. Positions which require, as a major portion of the job, independent liaison activities (typically oral) with other agencies or other County Departments as a representative of the County. Incumbents of such positions regularly initiate action and have the authority to deviate from usual methods when independently performing duties. Often in these situations, supervision is not immediately available.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
Either I The equivalent of one year of experience in the class of Clerk II or in an equivalent or higher level clerical class in the Alameda County classified service. (Non-classified includes District Attorney's Office, Hospital Authority, and the Consolidated Courts.) Or II The equivalent of two years of full-time clerical experience. License: Some positions may require a valid California Driver's license. NOTE: The Civil Service Commission may modify the Minimum Qualifications in the announcement of an examination.
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
NOTE: The level and scope of the following knowledge and abilities are related to duties listed under the "Examples of Duties" section of this specification. Knowledge of: • Modern office practices and procedures, including business correspondence, filing, and standard office equipment operations. • Specialized program knowledge of work requiring the application of a variety of rules, procedures, codes, calculations, and systems is required in some positions. • Techniques and practices for dealing with individuals from various socio-economic and ethnic groups, in person, via telephone, and through correspondence (may include contacts with irate and hostile individuals). Ability to: • Analyze and problem solve. • Communicate orally and in writing. • Make decisions and take initiative. • Demonstrate interpersonal sensitivity. • Adapt to challenging situations. • Plan, organize and coordinate work. • Work independently. SELECTIVE CERTIFICATION CRITERIA: 1. For positions requiring the ability to type at a speed of not less than 40 net words per minute from clear copy. Typing must occupy more than 10 percent of working time. Typing may be on a typewriter, or a personal computer. 2. For positions requiring the ability to type at a speed of not less than 40 net words per minute from clear copy, and to take shorthand at a speed of not less than 80 words per minute and transcribe it accurately. Taking and transcribing shorthand must occupy more than 10 percent of working time. 3. For positions requiring the ability to type at a speed of not less than 40 net words per minute from clear copy, and to transcribe dictation from dictating equipment. Transcription must occupy more than 10 percent of working time. (Candidates indicating a willingness to use dictating equipment will be certified to those positions where using the equipment is required, without having to take a performance test.) ALTERNATE RANGE CRITERIA: 1. For positions requiring incumbents to take and transcribe dictation via shorthand or dictating machine recording; these duties must occupy more than 10 percent of working time. DEFINITIONS USED IN CRITERIA #3 OF 'DISTINGUISHING FEATURES': Specialized Knowledge: Indicates that a minimum of six months to one year of specialized education or equivalent on-the-job training is necessary to acquire this specialized knowledge. General Knowledge: Indicates that information concerning a few of the more easily understood aspects from a variety of sources or complete understanding of all aspects from one source is required in order to perform the duties. Working Knowledge: Indicates an understanding of the usual finer points of general knowledge and an understanding of the details from a variety of sources is required in order to perform the duties. Clerical work: Work involving internal and external communications, recording and retrieval of data, and/or information and other paper work required in an office. No specialized education or training is required.
