NBNCo CEO Mike Quigley
The National Broadband Network Company (NBNCo) has poured cold water on reports it will contact the employers of prospect executives who attempt to jump ship from other telecommunications providers.
Media reports claimed the NBNCo would inform an applicant's employer prior to hiring the candidate.
NBNCo spokeswoman Rhonda Griffin, however, said the company would never inform an applicant’s employers of their bid to work for the company.
“The policy stops us actively approaching candidates… at no point would we inform an employer that an application has been lodged,” Griffin said.
“If [a candidate] comes to us, their details and applications are treated confidentially and assessed on merits.”
Griffin said the policy, which was drafted in January, prevents the NBNCo from seeking to poach telco staff “because [it] doesn’t want to poach from customers”.

This statement by NBNCO is absolute garbage! it is a lie by omission! Somebody please explain how most of the senior appointments are staff from Optus! We as an organisation in this particular space know of the names that are going from Optus, the contacts already inside NBNCO that are the conduits to speak tooGriffin is only hiring certain people who have certain leanings! We have sent made up CV's with impeckible credentials all sent rejections.Remember this ! most Optus peopole are failed Telstra people! what a great paybeack popsition to now be in!
