We want to know what you really think.

That's why The Mandarin has teamed up with job search specialists Indeed for this annual public sector survey. Your frank and fearless responses will help shape our editorial coverage. They will also help us keep track of the key challenges you face.

The survey should take about 15 minutes.

As a thank you for providing us with your time and thoughtful responses, anyone who completes the full survey is eligible to enter the draw to receive $500 credit toward a Mandarin subscription. Alternatively, the winner can nominate a charity to receive a $500 donation. See terms and conditions.

Our Frank and Fearless survey closes at midnight September 15, 2025. All responses received will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
