Not true. I worked for large multi-national contractor on a current Australian government project. 90% offshore "talent". Most of the time these employees actually had no previous work experience; just some training offshore and then projects on their CV were a complete fabrication. I'm assuming the contracting company does this on purpose so they can charge at a much higher rate.

The contractor employs the off shore workers, not the Government, but the problem bis that the people who sign off on the plan of work have little to no experience.

And why would you continue working for the Government when you could make 50% more even working for a dogshit company like Accenture?

Most of it. Some of the Australian contracting companies some government projects are handed to use external contractors themselves to varying extents. Though I do believe it isn't that common as IIRC most contracts explicitly disallow it.
