Rise in Metrics Signals Continued Growth, Highlights Staffing Challenges for Organisations
What is the IT Recruitment & Retention Report?
Clicks’ IT Recruitment & Retention Report has been in production since 2001. For those new to the report, it collates data from hundreds of organisations across the government and corporate sector. The report is highly anticipated and well-respected within the industry, providing leaders and HR teams with data-driven insights about the Australian IT staffing market.
The insights capture the health of business environments: sales turnover and forecasted spend; staffing levels: hiring intentions and trends; resourcing strategies; staff turnover and the most effective retention initiatives. With data from over two decades to draw upon, the report provides important comparisons with the last twelve months; before and after the pandemic began; averages and year-on-year trends.
