New Zealand job ads grow 0.9 percent in March - ANZ Bank

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Job advertisements in New Zealand rose 0.9 percent in March from the previous month, a survey by ANZ Bank showed on Thursday.

Growth was largely driven by the construction, manufacturing and transport sector, which is suffering from a severe labour shortage amid a construction and infrastructure boom.

On an annual basis job ads grew 6.1 percent, the survey showed.
