Recruitment Conditions and Procedures in State and Local Administration – Comparative Analysis and Evaluation

The purpose of the paper is presenting legal basis and conditions concerning chosen human capital management processes which are applied at the government administration and self-government units. Conducted analyses were not limited exclusively to theoretical deliberations, because the author also concentrated on portraying results and the consequence of these regulations, paying special attention to real processes which have reflected the human capital management paradigms occurring in civil service. Important argument which intensifies the rank and the rightness of research undertaken is the fact that in official government document ‘Poland 2030. Development challenges’, it has been acknowledged that intellectual capital should be treated as the deepest and most significant development potential of our country. In the final part of the article conclusions and recommendations for the management practice were formulated.
