AUSTRALIAN VALUES This is an Australian values question — In the real test, every values question must be correct.
Which TWO of these should NOT decide whether a person is given a job in Australia?
- The applicant's ethnicity ✓
- The applicant's experience
- The applicant's skills

Why this is the answer
Jobs should be won on ability. Money and ethnic background have nothing to do with it.
This question is from: Equality of opportunity and a ‘fair go’
