Shortlist for top US job scrapped before John Barilaro landed job, emails show

According to the documents the salary for the various roles range from $450,000 to $600,000.

Applications at that time were due to close on April 26 last year, and the recruitment firm NGS Global sent through their shortlist for the Americas role on May 17. A further email, about the recruitment of the Tokyo STIC, detailed that all roles "have a structured approval protocol process prior to employment".

"If endorsed by all three, a Cabinet appointment form is prepared and added as a Cabinet agenda item.The email, dated April 6, 2021, explained the preferred candidate for the Tokyo position had met with and been endorsed by the treasurer and deputy premier — at the time Mr Barilaro — and was due to meet with the premier.

I stupidly was warming to Perrottet. This killed it

ICAC? Again

but the bruz just wants to go to Disney land ffs, give the poor little meatball a break

BREAKING It’s just been revealed that a Senior Trade Expert had been offered the NYC trade envoy job. Before her offer was rescinded and John Barilaro was hired. A settlement payment was even paid to the person offered the job. The Premier must explain his captains pick, now.

ICAC

That's handy, he created and saved that cushy job for himself to do a runner to the US. Anything to do with his recent marital split & secret relationship with a staffer (& new family?) that he wants to hide? This secret selection process stinks to high heaven.

So, a corruption of the process. Not surprised.

How's this role getting higher pay than Prime Minister?

What happened to the poker machines

antonegrice Is it defamatory to wonder if John Barilaro really is dodgy. I mean the things he’s said in parliament indicate he’s into pork barreling, am I allowed to form a personal opinion (low one) based on the words a pollie uses under parliamentary privilege? dodgypollie

Now please investigate what happened in the Victorian Justice Department.

Now voters and major party will understand why Australians voted for independent candidates as major parties do not hear public just follow each other politics.

More shameless pork barrelling. But then it's a skill in which the appalling Barilaro must by now have a PhD/

Sorry ABC. This stinks from the start. He was part of the recruiting process for these so called international roles, prior to quitting, and it would be seen as him aligning the actions for him to be appointed... Pigs in trough!!!!

He never deserved the role, they readvertised for a reason, which would have failed ANY recruitment process guidelines

I wonder what page this story lands on in the Costello/Murdoch tish rags?

Shocked I am! Shocked I tell you! How could this happen when the Godly Parrot is in charge and the State is run by the even Godlier LNPCorruptionParty? auspol

‘ Nothing to see here’ We must be‘fixated persons’ to question the mighty former Deputy Premier.🤌🤌🤦‍♂️

. This story was broken by friendlyjordies Much to the newspapers' disgust. But that's what happens when the journos turn a blind eye to corruption for 20 years. It is our journos thar have allowed Aus to become so corrupt. .

Stringy32 Barilaro Un buon truffatore può imbrogliare chiunque. A good crook can con anyone.

Nose in the trough till the very end. Pork barrallaro still doing what he does best

Scammers till the end.

Was he the only one corrupt enough to qualify ? Was this a job criteria that no one on the short list could meet ?

Salary $450K plus add ons Accommodation, travel… expenses. Expensive state cost for a National issue and role… does the US have 50 State similar reciprocal roles roles in NSW?

The position is now Tainted even if it is a legitimate position which I doubt anyway who in Christ name would you business with this bloke or who he represents. STINKS.

Pork barreling is something Barilaro knows very well. Why would anyone who had this country's interests at heart give that man a half a million dollars a year to achieve nothing. Nobody will wish to invest in Australia because he knocks on their door.

friendlyjordies happy?

BRUZ is back.

What else would we expect from a NSW Liberal state government. BTW when is the ICAC report into Gladys going to be brought down. The election was 4 weeks ago so why hasn’t raised this or is the report so damning that it will now wait until AFTER the NSW state election

Guess crime does pay.

Isn’t there a NSW ICAC for things like this?

onya Porky

Dom has a lot of lefties to pay off. Utter corruption.

You know the saying, “it’s not what you know”, right?

This behavior is rising to the level of criminal corruption

The state with the highest debt in history and they wonder why. Yet poor old nurses and teachers can't get an adequate pay rise. Politicians with no moral compass.

This is far smellier than the usual LNP stench, Dom_Perrottet

is thus

Something is rotten in the spare of NSW, me thinks.

How many states in Australia are sending politicians to New York on a $500,000 per annum salary? Every state? Snouts in the trough.

'... assessed on a range of measures including suitability for the role, qualifications, skills and experience,' So, what went wrong?

This needs investigating right now, this is plain and simple 'jobs for the boys'.

squeaky wheel gets the oil

Job should be scrapped too

; the ita criterion.
