Where will the greatest job growth be? What will employment in 2019 look like? The Department of Employment has put out its latest figures of employment projections. The sectors that should experience the greatest growth are expected to be Health Care & Social Assistance, Education & Training, Construction, and Professional, Science & Technology Services. Negative growth is expected for Manufacturing and Mining. Occupation areas that are projected to grow the most are General Clerks, Sales Assistants, Nurses and Carers. As the baby boomer population in Australia ages, the demand for aged-care related services will grow. Considering future trends should be a key part of career planning. Make sure that your client or student’s career profile of unique interests, abilities and values, is put to good use so that their employment journey will be optimal. You can find out more information from the Australian Government Job Outlook web page.
