You may have seen recently, advertising posters at bus shelters with photos of a young person in a t-shirt that says “Job Hunter Not Dole Bludger”.

While this campaign was launched by the national welfare group Brotherhood of St Laurence, our research into this story led us to a perhaps surprising driving force behind it, in the form of the bus shelter advertising company, Adshel.

Curious to find out more about the motivations behind the campaign, SubjectACT's Jennifer Thompson spoke with Adshel’s Director of People & Performance, Franck Appleby. We also hear from the young job hunters themselves.

This program was recorded live on 12th June, 2017.
