Merit Matters
- Merit Matters
- United States
- We believe in equal opportunity, NOT guaranteed results. We want Civil Service standards to be high, meaningful, equally applied and blind to race, gender or ethnicity. Written and physical exams should ensure that the MOST QUALIFIED are chosen, they should not be designed to have as many applicants as possible "pass."
