The current and future state of the Australian labour market

In this session, we paint a picture of Australia’s current and future labour market needs, covering:

• the current state of the labour market and where employers are currently hiring;
• what the future jobs market might look like;
• key skills needs of the future;
• research on what employers look for in job applicants—covering education and training, past work experience, and core employability skills—and how advisors can help young people take advantage of these opportunities
