Check your State, County, Township, and local City web sites. Most of those will list the open jobs on the web site before the local politicians give the jobs to a family member, friend, campaign worker, or campaign contributor. If the job involves actual work and requires actual skills then it would probably be filled by a member the public.

each city/county/state should have their own personnel website, if it isnt a part of their own website.
I tried for about 18 months before i landed something.
what type of jobs are there? i mean, as an example, my last job was as net admin at a doorknob wholesaler.... there HAS to be something more interesting out there than that!!
i know these questions arent easy to answer... heres another....what is more desirable, Cisco expertise or the "jack of all trades" type 2008 "mcse", vmware, exchange, sonicwall etc guy....
Depends on your def of desirable: higher pay or more jobs available?
hmmm, well obviously the upper level Cisco folks command the big $$. i guess what im trying to figure out is if you were equally qualified as a mid level Cisco or MS admin guy.... what would be more desirable to these state or govt jobs? whatever they are....

You can't really compare the two. If it is a Cisco position the Cisco guy would be more valuable and the same for an MS position. Knowledge in both areas and master of none could be more valuable depending on the job role.
It all boils down to what the position entails.
An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made.
