After months in the doldrums, internet IT job ads took an upward turn in May, growing by 1.6 per cent, a whisker ahead of the overall internet job ads.
The sharp rise in demand for IT skills throughout 2007 is well and truly in retreat according to the latest figures from the Olivier Job Index.
Demand remains strong for software development and engineering skills, with many employers focusing on recent graduates to shore up their productivity through tough times.
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.
IT jobs lead the February fall of online job advertisements according to the latest Olivier Job Index, released over the weekend.
The six-month rise in information technology and telecommunication jobs plateaued in October, with demand for IT workers slipping one percent compared to September, according to an index which measures online job advertisements.
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.
IT jobs ads increased in July for the fourth month in a row, according to the Olivier Internet Job Index, but job seekers have been warned the trend looks set to reverse.
Online information technology and telecommunications job ads in Australia have increased for the third month in a row, according to Olivier Recruitment Group.
Australia's information technology job market is returning to steady growth, with seasonal factors in recent months obscuring the underlying trend, according to a leading recruitment index.
