one of the dudes in my BOATS crew got treated poorly in an assessment activity, the assessor is a dickhead and untrained in assessment. No assessment brief, no setting of expectations, no outlining what the assessment would involve. Basically ignored every principle of assessment. Dude put in a complaint, the HQ followed the formality required but ignored it because assessor is part of the 'clique.'

The result has been the dude resigned. Yesterday we were canvased about ways to boost recruiting and I said "unfuck your training and assessment, it sucks shit" and can you imagine it, they ignored this suggestion in favour of "hand out pamphlets at Bunnings"
