MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Scott Walker’s administration has no records to back up an example he and Republicans have cited as necessitating overhauling the state’s civil service hiring process. Walker has frequently said a short-order cook performed well enough on the state’s civil service exam to be interviewed for a financial examiner job, which he did not get. But Walker administration spokesman Cullen Werwie says in an email to The Associated Press sent Wednesday there is no resume on file of the short-order cook. He says disclosure of the person’s prior work experience could have been made in a number of ways may not result in a releasable record. The Assembly passed a bill Tuesday doing away with the exams as part of a broader overhaul of the state’s civil service system.
