Rob Clark: Seek Country Manager as Job ads listed have fallen for a fourth consecutive month - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Job ads listed on Seek have fallen for a fourth consecutive month.  

Its July report shows ad numbers fell four percent month-on-month and are just one percent higher than July 2019 - while applications rose 11 percent.  

The decline has been driven by weakening demand in manufacturing, transport and logistics, information and communication technology and trades.  

Country manager Rob Clark says the falling trend is the same across the country.  

He says Hawke's Bay was the one exception - which remained relatively flat, likely because of the continuous rebuild after Cyclone Gabrielle.
