The latest ANZ Job Advertisements report reveals a notable decline in Australian job ads for the month of September 2025. According to the data updated on October 7, 2025, the indicator fell by 3.3% compared to August. This marks a significant drop from the previous month’s decline of 0.3% recorded in August 2025.
The month-over-month analysis indicates a worsening trend in the demand for labor across various sectors in Australia. The continuous decrease for two consecutive months reflects potential challenges in the labor market, possibly attributable to evolving economic conditions.
Analysts will be closely watching the market dynamics in the coming months for any signs of recovery or stabilization in job advertisements. Meanwhile, businesses and policymakers may need to consider addressing underlying issues to bolster job growth and economic resilience in the region.
