…And now that the housekeeping of the day is out of the way, onto some juicy gossip!

We received the following comments from an anonymous spy last week:

Hey guys, Thought you might like some news from the govt sector, which relates to over eager law and commerce grads. The ACCC are currently in their 6th month of deliberation to finalise a handful of grad positions in Melb/Syd/Canberra. Turns out the old HR [manager] flew the coup without making any selections, despite the applications sitting on his desk for over four months. He loved the good life of doing nothing at his desk so much, that he eventually quit to do the same thing from home! No one has been appointed in his position, and the Grads have been strung a long with the excuse that the ACCC is waiting to finalise the budget for next year to work out how many positions they have. To make things more interesting someone in HR has opened applications for 2011! Feel sorry for the kids, screwed by GFC, now hung out to dry by the ACCC

We feel sorry for the kids too, and not just because they will be stuck digging through the Trade Practices Act if and when they get an ACCC grad job.
