Even before the pandemic, STEM shortages made it difficult for employers in engineering sectors to find talent that matched their needs, and that trend is set to continue. As a result, employers are investing in initiatives to upscale workers, hire qualified immigrants and connect with talent outside of their own corner of Australia.

No sector was impacted more by COVID-19 than healthcare. Shortages are driving hiring frenzies at all levels of medical organisations, including clinical and support staff. After another difficult year with COVID, there is also a lot of pressure on employers to retain their nursing and lab technicians with many planning to exit the sector due to burnout.

Employers striving to maintain quality patient care are raising salaries and even offering bonuses for qualified candidates. 

Supply-chain struggles across all sectors have put pressure on logistics employers, who are likely to hire throughout 2022 as consumer demand continues to ramp. Those with certifications or experience operating forklifts and other transportation machinery will be in demand, and the same is true for project managers and others adept at continuous process improvement.
