DISTINGUISHING FEATURES

Incumbents of positions in this class perform duties requiring greater exercise of initiative and judgement beyond that of the lower-level Administrative Support I (SAN) TAP.

This class consists of positions that are filled on a temporary basis through the Alameda County Temporary Assignment Pool (TAP) Program. TAP employees are provisional, services-as-needed (SAN) employees of the Human Resource Services Department under the TAP Program. TAP is responsible for placing incumbents on assignments within departments and agencies. Assignments may vary from a minimum of four hours and generally not exceed 18 months. Duties and pay rate may vary based on the job classification of each temporary assignment. The Clerical Assistant-SAN (TAP) differs from the Clerk Intermittent series in that the latter functions as an assistant to regular full-time clerical personnel whereas the former performs the full range of duties assigned to a regular county clerical position on a temporary basis.

The Administrative Support II (SAN) TAP differs from the Administrative Support I (SAN) TAP, in that the former is designated as an 80-hour class and the latter is designated as a 75-hour class.
