No tech talent shortage in Australia. I’ve been job hunting for the past two years and it’s jobs offering 30-40% less than my current salary or fail to get me excited about the product/tech means I’m still looking daily. I have a few friends in a similar situation. Career wise, moving to Australia has been career suicide. Australia has a tech job shortage. Australia is a tech dinosaur a good 10 years behind the UK. It’s either low payed startups, with no funding, no equity for the risk+low pay, not that strong a product or it’s large corporate big data jobs (ETL) with all the issues of large old corporate companies where IT is a cost center and layers of management and staff churn. Since Australia has closed the borders they haven’t been able to import developers. Likewise salaries have remained stagnant. People in good jobs are staying in good jobs with no temptation to move for better pay or more exciting projects.
