Picking the Scab of Recruitment - Part 2 'The Employer'
Manage episode 477032363 series 3490290
Surfing a wave of listener feelings about this topic, Danielle takes us through the experience of public service recruitment from the other side.
- Danielle and Alison argue about the merits of requiring 'in house' recruitment before externally advertising positions
- The role that conservative (perhaps inexpert??) local budget management plays in driving a cycle of vacancies and short term contracts
- How complex recruitment processes make the public service less and less like the public we serve
- Ezra Klein's podcast episode In This House, We're Angry When Government Fails
- The good, the bad and the ugly of external recruiters
Now for some appropriately bureaucratic disclaimers....
While we have tried to be as thorough in our research as busy full time jobs and lives allow, we definitely don’t guarantee that we’ve got all the details right.
If you want rigorous reporting on Robodebt, we recommend the work of Rick Morton at the Saturday Paper, Chris Knaus and Luke Henriques-Gomes at the Guardian, Ben Eltham at Crikey, Julian Bajkowski at The Mandarin, and of course, the Robodebt Royal Commission itself.
Please feel free to email us corrections, episode suggestions, or anything else, at [email protected].
Thanks to PanPot audio for our intro and outro music.
