New Zealand Job Ads Rise For Third Month

New Zealand's job ads increased for the third straight month in November, the results of a survey by ANZ showed Friday.

Total job ads climbed a seasonally adjusted 2.0 percent month-over-month in November, faster than the 1.3 percent rise in the previous month.

At the same time, internet job ads grew at a slower pace of 1.6 percent monthly in November, following a 2.3 percent spike in October. Newspaper ads surged 7.1 percent, reversing a 9.4 percent sharp decrease logged a month earlier.

The annual growth in the rolling 3-month average of job ad volumes quickened to 1.8 percent in November from 0.1 percent in the preceding month.
