Abstract
This study aims to investigate prospective human resource officers’ specific functional competencies and behavioral indicators in the public sector. This study used in-depth interviews with human resource management personnel within and outside the central human resource management agencies of the Thai public sector, and the data were analyzed using content analysis and confirmed by the Delphi technique. The results revealed that the prospective human resource officers’ specific functional competencies and behavioral indicators were from the public sector. Moreover, the researcher suggests that the central human resource management agencies of the public sector can use the results of this study as a guideline in practice to enhance the potential of human resource officers, leading to higher professional standards in the Thai government’s human resource management in the future.
