The department or a designated appointing power may receive applications, conduct examinations, and create eligible lists on a continual basis consistent with board rules. The names of eligibles who took the same or a comparable examination on different dates may be ranked for purposes of certification in the order of final earned ratings, except as the order may be modified by the application of veterans preferences or career credits, consistent with applicable statutes.
