SEEK ANZ managing director Kendra Banks said: "As we know, June is the last month of the financial year and tends to be a quieter month for job ad volume. We have seen a continued decline of job ad growth this month extending the trend of 2019.
"However, the first few months of a new financial year - with businesses setting new priorities and budgets being refreshed - normally form the busiest months for recruitment in the whole year.
"It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the next few months, where I believe we will get a clearer picture of the current employment market."
On the salary increases, Banks said: "There has been a slight fall in salary growth in the final quarter of FY19. The peak came in April at 4.1% and 3.4% in May."
