Job Overview and Responsibilities

The position of Forensic Scientist is an entry-level role that serves as a foundational step in the field of forensic science. Forensic Scientists are tasked with conducting routine and less intricate biological and DNA assessments and analyses. They may provide support to senior-level Forensic Scientists in scientific inquiries and the analysis of physical evidence collected from crime scenes and illicit drug laboratories. Responsibilities include performing biological screenings and DNA profiling to establish DNA profiles from evidence in straightforward cases involving known suspects, unidentified individuals, and missing persons. Additionally, they are responsible for the technical and administrative evaluation of analyses performed by other DNA analysts, ensuring compliance with laboratory standards and protocols. To maintain their expertise and proficiency as a DNA casework analyst, participation in both internal and external evaluations is required, including those mandated by accreditation standards.

Candidates must undergo a fingerprint check prior to employment. A comprehensive Background Investigation is required, which may include a Criminal Background check and an examination of governmental records. A Medical Evaluation must be passed, and candidates must receive clearance before being hired. Successful completion of a Drug Screening test is mandatory prior to employment. Eligibility Criteria To qualify for the role of Forensic Scientist, candidates must meet the minimum qualifications outlined in the class specifications and be eligible for transfer, reinstatement, or possess current list eligibility. Candidates who have completed a degree in a physical or biological science but lack 3 semester hours in Quantitative Analysis may still apply, provided they submit proof of completion of the required coursework before appointment. For those aspiring to become Senior Forensic Scientists, eligibility for transfer, reinstatement, or current list eligibility is required, as this classification does not offer ongoing examinations.
