Veteran's Preference
Dakota County awards preference points to qualified veterans and spouses of deceased or disabled veterans.
These points are added to their passing exam score. Points are awarded subject to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes 43A.11. Applicants must supply a copy of their DD214 (this must show years of service and type of discharge).
Disabled veterans must also supply official documentation (memo/letter) or an equivalent letter from a service retirement board. Spouses applying for preference points must supply their marriage certificate, the veteran's DD214 (this must show years of service and type of discharge) and FL21-802 or death certificate.
This documentation must be received by the close date of the posting in order to be considered. You may fax this documentation to 651.438.8178 or mail to Dakota County Employee Relations, 1590 Highway 55, Hastings, MN 55033.
Veteran's preference points are included in the score if: 1) the applicant has completed the veteran's preference sections of the employment application, 2) receives a passing score, 3) the supporting documentation is provided and 4) the claim for preference is approved.
