The deadline to apply for the 2008 entrance examination for the position of New York State Trooper was December 1, 2007. Testing was conducted in January and February, 2008 at numerous locations throughout New York State and ended February 9th. The eligibility list for this exam can last up to four (4) years. We do not anticipate conducting another exam in the near future.

However, we do offer a variety of non-sworn employment opportunities, with continuous job postings on this site. Please click here for a listing of current civilian employment opportunities.
