Some of you may have heard Evelina Samuels on the ABC during your morning commute today, discussing how AI is reshaping jobs, the skills becoming increasingly important in today's workforce, and what graduates and professionals can do to remain employable in a rapidly changing market.

As Evelina shared, while AI is changing how many roles are structured, it's also increasing the value of uniquely human skills such as judgement, critical thinking and the ability to turn insights into meaningful action.

For the third year in a row, SD is proud to be supporting the Cancer Council's Biggest Morning Tea! ☕️

Last year, thanks to the generosity of our network, we raised $804 for this incredible cause. This year, we're hoping to beat that and raise even more to support life-saving cancer research, prevention programs and support services for those impacted by cancer.

If you're in a position to do so, we'd love your support. 💜

The senior HR market has shifted dramatically.

We’re seeing experienced HR leaders:
✔️ Stay on the market for 12+ months
✔️ Compete against unprecedented senior talent pools
✔️ and in some cases take pay cuts of $100K+ just to re-enter the workforce.

In a recent Australian Financial Review article, Sarah Donegan shared insight into what’s really happening behind the scenes in leadership hiring right now.

An incredibly proud moment for us today seeing Sarah Donegan featured in the Australian Financial Review discussing the current HR market and the shifts shaping organisations right now 📰

This piece was built from conversations and patterns we’ve been seeing firsthand across the executive HR market and featured as an SD exclusive. It's a challenging market for many at the executive level so it’s great to see this being explored more openly and honestly in mainstream media.

A huge thank you to the AFR and Rachael Bolton for bringing the story to life.
And a special thank you to Deirdre Hosking for being willing to share her experience so openly as part of the piece.

The HR market is shifting fast, but many organisations are still making salary and hiring decisions based on outdated benchmarks.

Salary expectations have changed. Flexibility expectations have changed. Candidate priorities have changed.

So what does the HR market actually look like in 2026?

We’re launching the 2026 HR Salary Survey to help build a clearer, more current picture of where salaries, hiring trends and workforce priorities are really heading across Australia.

If you work in HR or People & Culture, your perspective is a valuable part of that picture.

✔ Anonymous and confidential
✔ Takes less than 5 minutes
✔ Contribute to one of Australia’s most comprehensive HR salary and market insight projects

Struggling to navigate the HR job market?
You’re not alone.

We speak to candidates every day who are applying, preparing and interviewing, but still not getting the outcome they expect.

And more often than not, it’s not about capability.
It’s about understanding what hiring managers are actually looking for, how decisions are being made, and how to approach interviews in the current market.

So we built something to help.

Our Resource Hub is packed with short, practical videos and insights covering things like:
👉 What hiring managers are really assessing
👉 Common interview mistakes
👉 Optimising your LinkedIn profile
👉 How to approach your next interview with more clarity and confidence

No generic advice. Just real insight based on what we’re seeing every day.
