SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — October 29, 2026. The City and County of San Francisco is accepting applications for a Transmission Line Supervisor I (7229) citywide civil-service examination. The official careers listing, published October 27, 2026, gives an annual salary range of $163,800–$199,082 and an application deadline of November 10, 2026.

What kind of opportunity is this?

The recruitment, identified as REF61076M, is labeled a citywide examination, rather than simply a guaranteed open position for immediate appointment. The city states that an application to this posting is an application to take the exam. Candidates who pass may be placed on an eligible list with a score and ranking; departments can use that list when hiring for this classification.

Applicants should be careful not to equate being invited to an examination with being offered a job. The posting describes a Class Based Test, a combined promotive and entrance list and a Rule-of-Three selection method.
