Information Hub
Welcome to the Client Information Hub where we aim to support you, our clients, with all of your recruitment needs. By sharing our learnings, through quick, practical learning modules and resources, we hope this information can help support recruitment in your organisation.
We aim to work with our client organisations to embed recruitment excellence and to help shape the future of a high performing and values-based Irish public service. We recognise that employers in the public sector are currently operating in a dynamic and challenging environment with an ambitious government reform agenda and widespread social change.
The key areas of collaboration we are focusing on are:
- developing innovative and inclusive recruitment practices
- workforce planning
- understanding the future world of work
- and how this relates to the public sector employment profile.

Public Service Recruiters Network
At publicjobs we are delighted to announce the launch of the Public Service Recruiters Network, in collaboration with the Commission for Public Service Appointments (CPSA). The Network was launched in April 2022, and we have received an enthusiastic response to its establishment with over 47 organisations signed up to-date.
The purpose of the Public Service Recruiter Network is to facilitate greater collaboration in recruitment and to maintain the high standards that are in place across the public service. There is a strong focus on the sharing of best practice across the public service, identifying common challenges/opportunities and working together to attract the best people to our organisations.
The network will meet on a quarterly basis and is hosted by publicjobs, with key contributions from the CPSA.

OWL Programme: Inclusive Employment Guide
The Oireachtas Work Learning (OWL) Programme is an applied learning, development and socialisation programme for adults with an intellectual disability. It is facilitated by the Houses of the Oireachtas Service in collaboration with KARE and WALK (the two sponsor organisations). The Programme aims to provide trainees with the skills, knowledge and ability to gain meaningful paid employment. Six OWL graduates are now employed on a part-time basis in the civil service with four staff in the Oireachtas Service and two staff members within publicjobs.
To support the Public Service towards inclusive employment, we have created a Guide to Promoting Inclusive Employment: Supporting People with an Intellectual Disability. Find out more about enhancing organisational inclusivity and how to get involved in the Programme by downloading the
guide.
