The Job Outlook feature of the Australian Government's Job Search site, which uses Australian Bureau of Statistics data to provide a snapshot of employment prospects for a large range of occupations, can be searched by keyword or directory browsing. The Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST) site contains information on career and training options in Australia. School students, school leavers, teachers, job seekers and people thinking about a career change will find the annual Job Guide an excellent source of information on over 600 occupations in Australia, occupation choice, career planning, job descriptions and training options. New National Training System www.dest.gov.au/sectors/training_skills/policy_issues_reviews/key_issues/nts The Australian Government’s myfuture website contains extensive occupational information in the “Occupations” part of the section called “The Facts”. The Australian Government's Goingtouni site offers a searchable database of university courses for study and further study. The Dictionary of Occupational Titles is the US Government's premier career reference booklet on occupations and the job market. Used by career counsellors, students, and other job seekers to get information about jobs, it is revised every two years. The information on the labour market should be read with caution as it relates to the US only. The New Zealand government has developed the Kiwi Careers website, which contains several hundred job definitions in its Job Outlines section. Again, labour market information does not relate to Australia. Careers Services Unit (CSU) in the United Kingdom has developed the Prospects website where occupational information is researched, written and updated by Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (AGCAS) members working in Higher Education careers services in the UK. It targets professional and para-professional areas. www.prospects.ac.uk/cms/ShowPage/Home_page/Explore_types_of_jobs/p!elmjX This article was taken from the Internet job-seeking guide Working The Web.
