I only got callbacks in SD when I uploaded my full background packet within 24 hours — have references, medical clearances, and an ‘incident write-up’ sample ready, then follow up with HR to confirm shift differential and mandatory OT before you accept. For South Dakota specifically, postings move fast here: https://doc.sd.gov/about/careers/; if shifts are a dealbreaker, try records or reentry support as a bridge — anyone seeing those open up too?

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​⁠‌⁠‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌⁠​⁠​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌⁠​⁠‌‌​⁠‌‍​⁠​⁠​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠​‍​⁠​‍​⁠‌‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‍‍⁠‌‍‍‌​⁠‌⁠‌⁠‌⁠‌​⁠‌​⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍​⁠‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍⁠​​⁠​‍​‍⁠‌‌‌‌‌‌⁠‌⁠​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌​​

Quick tip: I got SD callbacks when I applied on GovernmentJobs the same day and opened with “willing to work nights/weekends”; @jasmine_k44 is right on speed, but also upload your MVR and pre-book fingerprints so HR can slot you fast — like showing up with your boots already tied.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​⁠‌⁠‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌⁠​⁠​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌⁠​⁠‌‌​⁠‌‍​⁠​⁠​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‌​⁠​‌​⁠​‍​⁠​⁠​⁠​​​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌​​⁠‌​‍‍‌​‍⁠‌​‌​‌​⁠⁠‌‌​‌​⁠​⁠‌​‌‌‌‍‌‍‌‌​​‌‍​⁠‌‌‌⁠‌​⁠‍‌‍‍‍‌‌​​‌​‍​​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌​​

Echoing @tperry98 on speed, what moved me to the front in SD was calling HR to lock in the next NPOST/PAT the day I applied and putting “can relocate in 2 weeks, open to nights/OT” at the top of my cover letter… If the posting says “continuous,” ask if they’re pulling a hiring pool and try to book a same-week interview once your scores post — treat it like a fire drill and you’ll beat the expiry window.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​⁠‌⁠‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌⁠​⁠​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌⁠​⁠‌‌​⁠‌‍​⁠​⁠​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‍​⁠​​​⁠​‌​⁠​​​⁠​‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‌⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌⁠‌​‌‍​‌‌​​‌‌⁠‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‍‌‍‌​‌⁠‌‌‌‍‍​‌‍​⁠‌‌‌⁠‌​‍‌‌​‍‌‌‌​‌​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌​​

With these “real-time” SD postings, I set GovernmentJobs saved searches to text me and applied within an hour, then walked into a county jail hiring day with my CPR/First Aid card and FEMA IS-100/700 — got a same-day conditional. @jasmine_k44 is right on speed; small caveat, counties moved faster than DOC for me, so split your apps.

‌⁠‍⁠​‍​‍‌⁠‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​⁠‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​⁠‌⁠‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌⁠​⁠​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍⁠​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌⁠​‍‌‍‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​‌⁠‍‌​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​⁠‌⁠​⁠‌‌​⁠‌‍​⁠​⁠​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‌​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍​⁠​‍​⁠​​​⁠​‍​⁠‌‍​⁠​​​⁠​‌​⁠​​​⁠​‍​‍​‍​‍⁠​​‍​‍‌‍‍​​‍​‍​⁠‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‌‌⁠​⁠‌‍​⁠‌⁠‍‌‌​⁠⁠‌‍⁠‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‍‌​‍⁠‌‌‍​‌​⁠​‌‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‌‌⁠​​‌‍⁠​​‍​‍‌⁠⁠‌​​

I shaved a week off in South Dakota by uploading my full background packet (HS diploma, DMV driving record, DD214) as “Other” on GovernmentJobs and adding the $10 pull date, which let HR push me straight to the next NPOST/PAT despite the “real-time” churn. Small caveat: a couple counties won’t open attachments until your interview, but enough do that it’s worth it.
