Same in Australia. I’m at a startup involved with placing people on digital projects.

I see a lot of amazing people struggling in the market right now. This is mirrored by a general slowdown in actual project spend by businesses.

Locally, there has been a very very minor uptick in activity prior to Christmas which is a historically weird time for that to happen, so I’m slightly optimistic for the new year.

But the last 12 months have been very tough.
