How do we protect our most valuable data? A recently published report provides a blueprint for national data infrastructure for Aotearoa New Zealand.  This report highlights how we could fundamentally adjust how we build digital systems, moving towards a decentralised model that disentangles data management from data processing. We are honoured to have played a role in producing this report, working closely with the team from the Veracity Technology Spearhead project.  https://lnkd.in/gh2KX7-N #NationalDataNZ #digitalinfrastructure

The big winner in August was the demand for IT professionals. A big jump, up 16%, driven by large double digit increases in all states except NSW and QLD. While public sector recruitment was strong, the private sector demand was driving the index this month. This can be considered a good omen as it often indicates companies investing for productivity improvement and efficiency gains - only time will tell. #recruitment #management #humanresources

Could Australian IT Job Seekers & IT Contractors benefit from a Real Estate-Style ‘Buyer’s Agent’ to help champion their cause & secure job seeking success quickly & efficiently? Let's face it - IT recruiters & IT Professional Services firms know who their clients are &, if you're an IT Job Seeker or IT Contractor, IT'S NOT YOU! IT Recruiters & IT Professional Services companies work for their paying customers - corporates & government agencies - leaving IT job seekers & contractors to be treated like a number. Despite being a critical part of the industry, IT job seekers & IT contractors lack the sales, marketing & engagement skills & expertise that it takes to secure opportunities & be successful. They lack a collective voice & often have to fend for themselves through non-transparent recruitment processes & a merry-go-round of ghosting. This situation is reminiscent of the real estate industry where vendors & their agents typically hold the power in real estate sales & buyers are treated like numbers, being played off against each other. However, a game-changer emerged in the late-1990s: the Buyer’s Agent. This advocate-styled role acts on behalf of buyers, providing a strategic advantage & putting buyers in a winning position by negotiating deals tailored to their needs. Imagine if the IT industry adopted a similar approach. An advocate dedicated to representing the interests of IT job seekers & IT contractors would change the power dynamics, providing them with the personalised support they need to succeed in a competitive market. Would this style of advocacy work provide a strategic advantage for Australian IT Job Seekers & IT Contractors? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences. Do you think there’s a need for a “Buyer’s Agent” approach in the IT industry? How could this change the landscape for IT Job Seekers & IT Contractors who striving for success? Share your insights below! 👇 #ITJobs #ITContractors #CareerAdvocacy #BuyersAgent #careerAGILITY

Government IT Contractors, are you drowning in the 'sea of sameness'?   A thought-provoking (AND VERY CURRENT) piece by Cristina Criddle in the Australian Financial Review highlights a critical issue in today's hiring landscape:   AI-driven tools are generating a 'sea of sameness’ in job applications.   With AI increasingly being used to draft resumes and cover letters, Criddle asserts that candidates are at risk of losing their unique voices, and companies may miss out on diverse talent.   The takeaway?    While AI can enhance efficiency, Criddle recommends maintaining authenticity and personal touch in applications. She encourages candidates to use AI as an aid, not a replacement, for their unique experiences and perspectives.   And so do I!   Here's my view:    I review hundreds of technology candidate resumes and applications per week, and this trend is SUPER evident.    Recently, I shortlisted 3 candidates for one role.   At the time of application review, I proofread all three.   All three, with nearly the EXACT same response to criteria.   All three were structured exactly the same, all three often with the same sentences generated by AI.    I recognise the value AI brings in automating tasks and boosting productivity, but when it comes to representing your personal brand to prospective employers, nothing replaces the power of your authentic voice.   Think about your resume and application as your own personal marketing material.   If the first impression a hiring manager has of you, your skills, and your capabilities.   Imagine trying to interpret someone's abilities when they look exactly the same as the next person.    My recommendation to you?   By all means, leverage AI for support and to increase productivity, but always ensure your resume and application genuinely reflect your experience and your tone of voice.    How do you balance AI efficiency while maintaining originality in your work? Share your thoughts below 👇🏽 #TechRecruitment #GovernmentIT #CareerAdvice #TalentAcquisition
