Consumer Affairs Representative
THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES
COMMISSION WANTS YOU!
Calling Bilingual Speakers of English and Spanish, Chinese Cantonese or Mandarin,
Korean or Vietnamese
Work as a Consumer Affairs Representative (CAR) for the California Public
Utilities Commission (CPUC), which regulates privately owned electric, natural
gas, telecommunications, and water utilities, as well as railroad, rail transit,
and passenger transportation companies. As a CAR you will receive, investigate
and resolve consumer complaints. Applicants should have at least one year of
state service or three years of non-state experience resolving consumer complaints.
Since the CPUC is a state agency, you will have to go through the state civil
service process, which involves taking an examination. It’s not as intimidating
as it sounds!
Welcome to the California Public Utilities Commission.
Californians
spend more than $38 billion annually for services from the utility industries
regulated by the CPUC! At the Commission, you will get to work on important regulatory
policy issues that affect all California consumers and the utilities that serve
them. Our headquarters is in San Francisco and we have offices in Sacramento
and Los Angeles. We need talented, dedicated people to complement our existing
team who work in a family-friendly environment on behalf of consumers and the
state's economy!
