Planning your future? Want to be guaranteed a job when you finish studying? Lucky for you, we’ve done the hard yards and compiled a list of the most in-demand jobs for 2022 to give you a head start.
- IT
As technology continues to evolve – so too does the demand for IT specialists. Technology is a part of our everyday life, and we all understand the frustration and inconvenience when it doesn’t work.
(However, IT support goes much further than restarting your nan’s iPad so she can play Candy Crush.)
The backbone of most industries rely on technology in some form, that’s where future professionals like YOU come in. Whether it be at a government level, in a corporate chain, or even your local school – every business is in need of IT support.
This kind of safety net is a career golden egg.
You can equip yourself for a career in IT at home through our partner universities – Flinders and CQUni – browse our IT courses here.
- Digital marketing
Just as technology cements the need for IT specialists, the internet cements the need for digital marketers.
One minute you’re mindlessly scrolling Instagram, the next you’ve filled your basket with the new iPhone, leather sneakers and tickets to a new pottery class.
Digital marketing acts as a way for businesses to maximise their efficiency by targeting specific audiences with a click of a mouse (and then monitor the numbers online – something traditional marketing couldn’t achieve).
If you’re the creative type, this is the field for you. You’ll be brainstorming the most “out of the box” ways to sell a product, using innovative and challenging ideas. Then follow it up by pouring over the hard stats and celebrating with the client.

- Health
You don’t realise how much you need healthcare workers until you’re sick – and our hospitals are currently flooded with patients needing urgent assistance.
With more people sick than ever, nurses and healthcare workers are beyond demand. The Australian healthcare and social assistance sector currently accounts for 14% of the total workforce, making it Australia’s biggest employer.
It’s a solid option for regional students because you can always guarantee there will be employment not far from home. If not, you could always apply for the Royal Flying Doctors with your degree and help other rural people in need.

- Aged care
On par with the healthcare industry, aged care has been a newsworthy topic for quite a while, making headlines with its worker shortage and high demand for professionals. It doesn’t help that people are living longer, requiring more aged care assistance.
This rewarding job of taking care of the elderly will continue to be around as long as we are – so it’s worth investing in if you’re a gentle person who thrives from helping others.
See how you can make a career from helping others here with our range of aged care degrees.
