    Job applications remain at historic highs - far outweighing the number of jobs being advertised


    SEEK's revealed job ads dropped two-percent in December - and are down 22-percent on 2023.

    While the number of applications per ad also dropped two-percent, they remain 32-percent higher than in 2023.
