December 2007 capped off a bumper year, with Internet-based IT job ads growing by five percent on 2006 figures.
Demand for IT skills continued to grow throughout November, bucking a general softening in employment growth as interest rates, and uncertainty surrounding the change of government begins to bite.
The number of information technology and telecommunications jobs advertised online in December 2004 rose slightly over the month before and sharply over December 2003, according to a leading index.
Information technology and telecommunications recruitment dropped by 3.28 percent last month, according to Olivier Internet Job Index for July 2004, despite the Australian job market as a whole rising by 2.70 percent for the month.
Australia is up to the off-shoring challenge, according to international software expert Dr Philip Lehman, despite statistics from the Australian Computer Society (ACS) predicting a loss of 4000 ICT jobs by 2009.
The technology industry is awash with certifications at the individual and organisational level, but are these qualifications worth the paper they're printed on? ZDNet Australia investigates.
An index of online job ads in the IT and telecommunications sector slid more than expected in January, although the sector did not fare as badly as the overall online jobs market, which was hit by recent interest rate rises.
Information technology and telecommunications jobs advertised on the Internet fared better than other sectors over December, falling only slightly compared to November.
Now is the time for IT professionals to look for work, with the IT job market remaining buoyant at the end of the year, according to the Olivier Internet Job Index.
A new index measuring jobs in the telecommunications sector brings good news for telco staff but bad news for IT jobseekers in general, according to Robert Brand, who compiles the Badja ICT Telco Jobs index.
