Private sector pays more so people go there. Private sector is less secure so people whine about public sector in hard times.

Cantstandsya wrote: » Ok indeed. Are you saying there haven't been recruitment campaigns the last few years? I know for a fact that there have been, so why don't all the people who crow on about how great public sector jobs are ever seem to apply for them?
The Belly wrote: » Its not the thread for this but Do a little research and see how many jobs were available in which area and how many applications they received. Also, see which posts they were not able to fill. Practically none apart from Health care specialized jobs. Your "why don't you apply argument" is horse **** the fact is the jobs available are always oversubscribed at all times because of all the perks that go with it. I presume you're a PS worker but the facts are very very few jobs of similar skills in the private sector provide anything close to the package and security a PS worker gets.
Cantstandsya wrote: » Yeah it's not the place for this, it's the place to take pot shots at public sector workers without response. Same as last recession blame it on the public sector. There have been tonnes of recruitment campaigns and they are competitive and they have decent terms. If you don't apply for a job and don't get it then you've nothing to complain about. If you do apply for a good job with lots of competition and don't get it, that's the fault of neither the job nor the people who did get it. As for the respective skills of PS vs private sector workers, judging by the comments in this thread I'm sure any semi competent private sector worker will have no problem mopping the floor with the competition during a PS recruitment campaign.

I was in my 20s during the last recession and I thanked my lucky stars that I had a permanent teaching job during that time but I had a lot of people make me feel really bad about it. Since the last recession, when times were good, not many of my teaching friends in Dublin could buy property, unless they had very wealthy partners
