HOW CAN BLU RIPPLES LABOUR MARKET ANALYSIS SERVICES HELP ME?

Blu Ripples Labour Market Analysis Services will help you establish realistic employment baselines, action plans and goals, based on current available employment data; as well as providing you with guidance in a number of ways including helping you determine if you are: –

Positioned in the right geographical location to maximise your employment opportunities
Overselling or underselling yourself in terms of remuneration (pay), skills, qualifications and experiences
Seeking employment in a sector that is in national demand, growth or decline
Ideally placed to move upwards or sideways in your career based on your circumstances and labour trends
Best to stay in your current position, invest in your education or seek new career pathways

HOW CAN THIS PROCESS HELP ME DETERMINE MY CAREER PATHWAY?

Our Labour Market Analysis will help you determine if a career pathway you identified has merit and meets your individual requirements.

For example, let’s assume, that you are considering a career in Graphic Design (GD) and want to find out some facts about the job and industry for example

How much am I likely to get paid?
Where are the employment opportunities? (Job Sectors)
Which Australian state(s) employ the highest percentage of GD’s
Is the occupation and/or industry in growth or decline? Why is this important to know?
Is GD on the national skills shortage list and if so what does this mean for you in terms of career prospects?

As a result of obtaining and reviewing reliable labour market informaton you now have the tools and resources to begin to determine if you are: –

Adequately positioned to capture opportunities
Agreeable relocating to another state or region to capture employment opportunities
Happy with the starting salary – will it meet your expectations and needs?
A strong applicant compared to your competitors
Willing to pursue tertiary study as it will provide you with a return on investment

Consquently, you are empowered to build a realistic picture from which you can either create a: –

Career Development Plan to achieve your short and long term goals; or
The confidence and skills to review the current labour market and identify career pathway alternatives

Remember, you are in control of all your career decisions including which career pathway is right for you; however, our Labour Market Analysis Services will provide you with relevant and meaningful information and skills to assist in your career decision making process.
