  • Job advertisements jumped 3.9% m/m in September in seasonally adjusted terms after rising by a solid 1.3% m/m in August. In trend terms, job ads were up 1.0% m/m and growth since mid year now appears a little stronger than previously.

  • The number of internet job ads grew 4.0% m/m in September following an increase of 1.3% m/m in August. Internet job ads were 13.7% higher than a year earlier.

  • The number of newspaper job ads (2% of total job ads) declined 2.7% m/m in September, after rising for two consecutive months.


ANZ CHIEF ECONOMIST WARREN HOGAN SAID:

'The positive trend in job advertising is a sign that the economy is so far adjusting relatively well to significant headwinds from falling commodity prices and mining investment .

While non-mining firms remain fairly reticent to increase capital spending, the demand for labour in a range of services industries has strengthened. Activity in these industries has been supported by the sharp depreciation of the Australian dollar, which has redirected spending back towards the domestic economy, and by low interest rates, particularly through robust housing market activity and its flow on effects. Hiring in the services sector also looks to have displayed some 'catch up' over the past year or so following unusually weak outcomes.

While we expect momentum in non-mining activity to remain quite good in the near-term, our view is that the significant support to growth from the factors above will wane heading into 2016. For this reason, we expect employment growth to remain reasonably healthy over the remainder of 2015 but to then soften next year. This is likely to prompt the Reserve Bank to provide a little more monetary policy support to prevent the unemployment rate from rising further.'

  2. The trend estimates have been derived by applying a 13 -term Henderson m oving average to the seasonally adjusted series. This smoothing technique enables estimates to be produced for the latest m onth, but it also results in revisions to the most recent six months as additional observations become available.

  3. Annual changes are on a year-average basis.

(a) Annual changes are on a year-average basis.

The internet series counts the average num ber of advertisem ents carried by each of the sites contributing to the series on the same day of each week in the month indicated. The day (which is not necessarily the same for each site) is selected by the site o perator as broadly representative of its activity levels. The above data are based on information provided by the operators of the following sites: seek.com .au; and the Departm ent of Education's Australian JobSearch site, jobsearch.gov.au.

TECHNICAL APPENDIX

The ANZ Job Advertisements Series now uses a concurrent seasonal adjustment methodology to derive the seasonal adjustment factors. This means that data from the current month are used in estimating seasonal factors for the current and previous months. Concurrent seasonal adjustment replaced the forward factor methodology from the June 2010 reference month.

The concurrent adjustment methodology uses the most recent data every month whereas the forward factor approach only used it once a year. Under concurre nt adjustment, the seasonal factors will also be more responsive to underlying dynamic changes than forward factors.

Concurrent adjustment can result in revisions to the seasonal factors each month to estimates for earlier periods. However, in most instanc es, the only noticeable revisions will be to the seasonal adjustment factors for the current month, the previous month and the same month a year ago.

The concurrent seasonal adjustment brings the ANZ Job Advertisements Series in line with the methodology used by the ABS for its monthly employment data.


NOTE FOR EDITORS:

For some of the newspapers surveyed, the ANZ Job Advertisements series counts the number of advertisement 'bookings'. Each 'booking' may contain multiple advertisements. In addition, the ANZ series counts classified advertisements only, and does not include display advertisements. For these reasons, it would be incorrect to draw any inference or correlation from the ANZ series regarding advertising volumes or revenues from employment advertising in the newspapers surveyed. The ANZ series is not intended to, and should not, be used to assess the financial performance of any of the newspapers included in it.
