Our September 2010 poll* asked ‘Do you think it is easy to move from the public sector to the private sector?’

The findings show that 41% of you believe job hunters will experience some difficulty in making the move from the public to the private sector, with a further 31% thinking you’d need to have some training to help you make a successful transition.

This sends a clear message to the public sector that departing employees need support in making this transition. Future private sector employers must also be flexible when introducing ex-public sector staff to their businesses.

*Survey base: 510 participants, September 2010.
