Australian ANZ job advertisements rise 0.2% in March

The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) released its job advertisements figures on Monday. Job advertisements rose 0.2% in March, after a 1.2% fall in February.

The increase was mainly driven by a rise in internet job advertisements, which climbed by 0.4% in March.

"The number of job ads has been broadly unchanged for four months now, signalling an easing in hiring intentions. To some extent this is unsurprising given the strong pace of jobs growth over much of 2015 and modest improvement in the unemployment rate," the ANZ Senior Economist Justin Fabo noted.
