Notes

  1. The New South Wales total and the occupation figures on this page are sums of the regions Jobs and Skills Australia publishes, computed here. Their regions cover the state exactly once, so the sum is well defined, but it is our arithmetic rather than a figure they released. The regional table carries their published figures unaltered.
  2. Occupation groups are reported at the level Jobs and Skills Australia publishes them. They overlap, so adding groups together produces a number nobody published.
  3. The Internet Vacancy Index counts advertisements appearing on a defined set of job boards. Vacancies never advertised online, or advertised only through an employer’s own site, are not in it. It is an indicator of advertising activity, not a measure of total vacancies in New South Wales.
  4. The advertisements listed are not a count and not a sample designed to be representative. They are the listings held from the sources named below, which cover particular employers and boards rather than the whole market.
