Current Job Opportunities at COSA

As a federal and state funded agency The Delaware County Office of Services for the Aging (COSA) must comply with the provisions of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania State Civil Service Commission. Consequently, hiring for most positions in this office is done from approved Civil Service lists.

An application form must be completed for each classification that you are interested in applying for. The Civil Service Commission will still accept paper applications but now prefers that everyone apply online. The classifications used by this agency most often are Aging Care Manager 1, 2 and 3 and Aging Program Assessor. COSA uses the Local Government version of all the classifications. The State Civil Service Commission uses a different job code to distinguish positions located in state or local government. You can get information and/or apply directly online at www.scsc.state.pa.us.

If you have further questions regarding the Civil Service process, we encourage you to contact the local office of the State Civil Service Commission in Philadelphia at (215) 560-2253 to determine positions for which you might qualify.
