While talking to a leading HR Consultant based in Melbourne yesterday regarding the state of the Australia IT market and she commented on a concern that her organisation has around the drastically declining amount of IT graduates coming out of the Australian Universities. They hire a large amount of IT graduates annually but are struggling to find the appropriate amount they require.
I heard that back in 2008 that Victoria University had a reduction of 40% of new enrollments looking to complete a Computer Science degree.
This doesn't bode well for looking to plug the shortages in the IT markets in Australia and New Zealand, meaning that recruiters, organisations and the government need to get smarter on how to attract suitably qualified people to New Zealand (I sense deja vu)
