Hi all,

For those of us in the IT industry, times can be very uncertain. Here is the latest salary survey results from Hays.

I have been in contact with a few Perth based agencies and they all say the ranges quoted in the survey is very accruate.

and seen this good news!!

Big pay rises for techies
==================
SALARIES in the technology field are up by 10 per cent this year, as permanent hiring rises with an easing of staff restrictions, a survey shows.

The roles in highest demand include business and process analysts, project managers, and software and infrastructure developers

Many large organisations were able to halt a "salary explosion" by using contractors for a short period and retraining people in desirable skills, Candle Australia ICT national manager Trevor Taylor said.

The wages seem very accurate to what hubby is getting in Melbourne CBD although I thought that Sydney always got paid a fair bit higher?

I'm not sure where to look on that chart the OP posted. Where does an aerospace ADA developer fit in with five years experience?

is there an equivalent one of these for contractor rates???

From what I saw when looking around contractor rates (in Sydney at least) are basically the same as permanent plus (maybe) a bit more to cover the fact that public holidays and 20 days annual leave won't be paid. Its certainly nothing like the UK where you earn a lot more.

Maybe I'm just blind but I can't see any info for Graphic/Web Designers, there's something for backend web stuff but not front end. Anyone got any ideas what the average is for this?
