I know. However, I am trying to ascertain if there is anything within the recruitment process that can help us to attract social workers aside from matters regarding salary and there being more attractive positions abroad. Are there bottlenecks within the process whereby somebody will say: "I am not going to go through with this because it will take me 12 months to get this job and in the intervening time I will get a job somewhere else"?
