f Real Estate Managers:
^ Provisional Jobs; $ 5 4 5 0
R^aI e.stdte managers are badly
needfd by the New York City
Department of Real Estate, and
qualified at>plicant.5 will be hired
Imm'^'i lately on a provisional
ba-sis
C'Knmissioner Ferdinand Roth
said that the Department's expanded take-over of city properties had resulted in a serious
shortage of employees with real
estate manager qualifications. He
said that private real estate firms
would be canvassed in an eflort
to obtain competent personnel
from private industry. At the
same time efforts would be made
to interest recent college gradua t e who intend to make real
estate their career.
There i.s at present no civil
service back-log of real estate
managers, since the list established
In connection with the examination held a year ago Is exhausted.
As a consequence the Department
is permitted to go into the open
market and engage provisionals
who will be eligible to take the
next civil service examination in
this category which is scheduled
tentatively for April 7, 1962.
"There are promotion opportunities for civil servlc« •mDloyees
in the real estate fleld up to
positions paying $11,500
annually," Commissioner Roth said.
"Employees In this category receive 20 days annual leavs at the
end of a year's service and accrue
one day's sick leave monthly."
Requirements for real estate
managers are three years of satisfactory experience in the active
management of residential, oommercial or Industrial real estate
properties or in responsible position in site management or tenant
relocation activities.
A baccalaureate degree may be
substituted for one year's experience.
Typical duties of a real estate
manager Include the management
of a large number of city-owned
and receivership properties in an
assigned regular area and inspection and examination of properties to determine th« need for
necessary repairs.
Interested persons may receive
further information at the Department of Real Estate's offlee,
2 Lafayette Street.
Provisionals will be paid the
sam^ starting salary, $5,450 a
year, as the civil service real e.stata managers. Regular yearly increments of $240 would increase
their pay to a maximum of $6,890.

THE CIVIL SERVICE'

INSTALLED
So the problem that gives rise
to a conception of public service
that is not wholly warranted is
the Institution itself. It has become, in many cases, too rigid;
too inflexible, too stubborn to
meet changing personnel needs.
It gives rise, in the public
mind, to the belief that the
worker who qualifies is set for
life, regardless of competence,
attitude or conduct.
To this the politician has
greatly contributed. Every election year, he becomes acutely
aware of the hundreds of thousands of civil servants in the
state. He cheerfully promises
them the maximum.
When elected, he delivers in
part. But count the number of
promises and the partial deliveries, and you get a picture of
a well secured, well cared for
worker; with 10 paid holidays
a year, liberal vacation and sick
leave, a less than 40-hour week,
and annual increments.
Actually, this is exactly what
the civil service reformers wanted to achieve. They wanted security; they wanted decent pay;
decent hours and working conditions; respectable retirement
and other social security benefits.
Frustration Abounds
Why then should the fruits
of victory be sour?
Frustration is one answer.
There probably is nothing more
frustrating to the administrator
than civil service rules and red
tape; unless It be the rejection
by the comptroller of an expense
voucher.

hour's work a day out of them."
an upstate political leader told

That was a harsh criticism of
a City Hall work force.
An administrator had a different problem. He was engaged in
social service activities and he
wanted to start a program

literetted — the small justices
of peace and the small county
judges. So, be practical when
you plan. You still are dealing
with people and government.
You in government are well
aware that a new element Is

affairs administrator, has a r rived. He Is Impatient with delays. For him to achieve his full
potential, civil service must supply him with a little more flexibility.

be greater, and the civil servant
can be what he was Intended to
be: A proud representative of a
proud state and local government.
