SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian job advertisements in newspapers and on the internet inched higher in October after falling for two consecutive months while annual growth was the slowest since April 2015, a survey showed on Monday.
Figures from Australia and New Zealand Banking Group <ANZ.AX> showed total job advertisements added 0.2 percent in October, from September when they fell 0.8 percent.
Ads averaged 175,905 a week, 3.6 percent higher than in October last year. That was a slowdown from 5.1 percent in August and a peak above 14 percent in early 2017.
