The issue of the effectiveness of public administration is particularly acute in times of crisis and requires, first of all, special attention to the process of holding office by candidates, to assess their professional suitability.

The analysis of domestic and foreign experience in assessing the professional aptitude of a public administration specialist shows the similarity of assessment systems and the application of the principle of competitive selection of personnel. The article emphasizes the need to introduce competence-oriented tasks into the assessment procedure that allow determining the zone of development of professional fitness of a civil servant.

ABSTRACT Tax regimes treat losses and profits asymmetrically when profits are immediately taxed, but losses are not immediately refunded. We find that treating losses less asymmetrically by granting refunds less restrictively increases loss firms' investment: A third of the refund is invested and the rest is held as cash or returned to shareholders. However, the investment response is driven primarily by firms prone to engage in risky overinvestment. Consistent with the risk of misallocation, we find a delayed exit of low-productivity loss firms receiving less restrictive refunds, indicating potential distortion of the competitive selection of firms. This distortion also negatively affects aggregate output and productivity. Our results suggest that stimulating loss firms' investment with refunds unconditional on their future prospects comes at the risk of misallocation. JEL Classifications: G31; H21; H25.

The problem of increasing the efficiency of public administration is a key point that refutes or supports the methods and forms of power that are used, but only within the framework of efficiency criteria. The determining factor on this issue should be, first of all, socio-economic efficiency, that is, the universal consideration of public interests of Russian citizens. Taking into account the analysis of thematic sources on assessing the effectiveness of the public administration system, we can conclude that this category contains a combination of various results of managerial activity, both in the state and in the public sphere. The effectiveness of public authorities should take into account quantitative statistical indicators, but special attention should be paid to qualitative indicators, which should be assessed by the population of the subject of the Russian Federation. The purpose of evaluating the performance of public civil servants, heads of executive authorities is the introduction of an optimal and fair wage system both at the regional and federal levels. The article discusses the foreign experience of the CAF self-assessment model of public authorities, which is based on the selection of 9 criteria that correspond to the main areas that are taken into account when analyzing public authorities. Examples of evaluating the effectiveness of executive bodies in the Irkutsk and Kurgan regions are shown. The current and developed measure for assessing the effectiveness of the activities of executive bodies of state power and officials on the example of the Udmurt Republic is reviewed and analyzed.

Aim/Purpose: This paper reports a case study of organizational transition from a non-competitive selection method to a novel bidding method for the selection of consultants in the Architectural and Engineering (A/E) industry. Background: Public procurement agencies are increasingly relying on external consultants for the design of construction projects. Consultant selection can be based on either competitive bidding, or quality-based criteria, or some combination between these two approaches. Methodology: Different sources of information were reviewed: internal documents, and quantitative data from the enterprise software platform (ERP). In addition, informal and unstructured interviews were conducted with relevant officials. Contribution: As there are mixed opinions in the scientific literature regarding the use of competitive bidding for the selection of consultants in the A/E industry, this paper contributes a detailed review of a transition to a competitive selection method and provides a financial and qualitative comparison between the two methods. In addition, the method implemented is novel, as it delegates most of the responsibility of hiring and managing consultants to one main contractor. Findings: While the new selection method was intended to reduce bureaucratic overload, it has unexpectedly also succeeded to reduce costs as well. Recommendations for Practitioners: It may be more efficient and profitable to adopt the selection method described in this study. Recommendation for Researchers: Similar methods can be applied to other industries successfully. Impact on Society: Our method was applied in a public organization and resulted in a better outcome, both financial and managerial. Adopting this approach can benefit public budgets. Future Research: The selection, data storage, and analysis methods are interrelated components. Future analysis of these components can help better shape the consultant selection process.

The aim of the article is to identify new trends, patterns of corruption in the system of government and develop approaches to improving mechanisms to prevent and combat corruption in Ukraine. In the context of reforming modern Ukrainian society, the study of the development of mechanisms to prevent corruption is very relevant. In addition, given the deepening socio-political and financial-economic crisis in Ukraine, corruption is a serious threat to national security. According to international experience, a mechanism should be clearly established for the selection of specialists to work in the public administration sector. An effective set of tools to combat corruption in the state are, first of all, prohibitions and restrictions. The focus on overcoming the factors of corruption that are inherent in the sphere of state structures is the improvement of mechanisms. One of the effective mechanisms for preventing corruption is preventive measures in public bodies with a number of restrictions and prohibitions.
