The Permanent job market slid 0.6% in November but it’s still been a sensationally strong year
The surprise performer in November was Western Australia which saw demand expand by 4.3%
The market in VIC/TAS is still the strongest nationally, rising from 196.66 to 196.67
Demand for Storepersons and Freight Handlers is an extraordinary 25.6% higher than a year ago. It may be that the arrival of Amazon has created this additional employment
