How do I move to Public Sector

no you don't have to enter at the bottom. I negotiated my salary off an AP scale.

Hi AMTC - Would you mind if I asked what sector (i.e. parent Govt department) you are in? I understood that Finance came down pretty hard on insisting that all new joiners come in at the bottom of the scale now. I heard that HSE seemed to make their own rules, but other sectors were pretty firm on this. Would this match your experience?

I assume the freeze referred to in terms of 'something in the paper' was the HSE freeze.
