We need to dig down into the 43% who had some difficulty with their experience and find out where it is going wrong. I actually believe the Department does a fantastic job in supporting people, but I can go to the principal of a local national or secondary school who sees a chance to fill a hole in the staff by using JobBridge. Unfortunately, the fact some organisations had to withdraw the jobs they offered has given JobBridge a bad name.
