What this means

General notes on reading job ads for Farmers and Farm Managers, chosen by the direction of job ads over the year. They are not advice about your situation.

For job seekers

More ads usually means more openings to apply for. It does not tell you how many people apply for each one, or whether pay is changing, so read each ad closely for what the employer actually asks for.

For students

Ads today are not a forecast. A course takes time, and demand when you finish may be different. Use this alongside longer-term sources such as Jobs and Skills Australia's employment projections (opens another site) and Your Career (opens another site).

For employers

More ads can mean more employers competing for the same people. Comparing your ads with others in your occupation group and region, and being clear about hours, location and requirements, can help them stand out.

Job ads are not all jobs: many roles are filled without an online ad. See the limits of the data.
