For example,if you are thinking of a career in a particular industry you may want to look atthe range of employing occupations, the main training pathways, the locationof jobs and future employment prospects. It can also be used to recognisethe value of higher levels of education and training, the competitive natureof the labour market and how to be a successful job applicant.The forward looking information in this report provides some guidanceabout which industries and occupations are likely to have the strongestemployment growth. Sometimes, though, even in occupations that arein high demand, applicants can face significant competition for vacancies.Conversely, employers sometimes have difficulty recruiting for occupationswhich are not growing very much or are even in decline.It is important to remember that the labour market can change quickly.It isn’t easy to forecast future labour market conditions and it isn’t advisableto base employment and training decisions solely on predicted shortages.It is better to train in an area in which you have an interest and aptitude thanto choose a career solely based on expectations about future conditions.Employers often require staff who have relevant work experience, regardlessof the skill level of the job.
