Australian Jobs 2025: Marking 30 Years of Labour Market Insights
The 2025 edition of Australian Jobs marks the 30th anniversary of this flagship publication, which has long served as a trusted source of labour market information for Australians.
Over the past three decades, Australian Jobs has provided accessible, evidence-based insights into occupational and industry trends, supporting young people, job seekers, career development practitioners, employment service providers, and those considering training or career transitions.
The 2025 edition continues this legacy, offering a comprehensive overview of Australia’s dynamic labour market. It highlights key trends, from emerging skills needs and industry growth to the impact of technological change and evolving workplace practices. As the nature of work continues to shift, Australian Jobs empowers individuals and organisations to make informed decisions and prepare for the opportunities of the future.
Exploring the 2025 Edition of Australian Jobs
Australian Jobs is designed to guide users through key aspects of the labour market and provide practical insights into what employers are looking for in today’s workforce.
The 2025 edition includes:
-
Practical advice on how to find work, apply effectively, and succeed in securing employment
-
Information on education and training pathways to support informed career decisions
-
A national overview of Australia’s diverse labour markets and employment patterns
-
A new feature spotlighting the Jobs and Skills Councils, including insights into the skills in demand and the wide range of meaningful career opportunities available
-
Comprehensive analysis of employment trends across industries, occupations, and geographic regions.
It is important to note that the labour market can shift rapidly. While future trends can provide guidance, employment and training decisions should not be based solely on predicted skill shortages. Pursuing study or work in an area aligned with your interests and strengths remains the most sustainable and rewarding approach to career development.
