Data Coverage

Actowiz Solutions delivered compliant Australian job data aggregation for a Sydney-based HR tech startup — fueling AI-powered candidate matching, hiring trend analytics, and recruiter intelligence across SEEK, Indeed Australia, and LinkedIn.

Client Overview

The client is a Sydney-headquartered HR tech startup serving Australian enterprises with AI-powered talent acquisition analytics. Their algorithm depended on continuous, structured Australian hiring market data — spanning job postings, salary benchmarks, skill demand, and recruiter activity.

SEEK dominates the Australian job market, with Indeed Australia and LinkedIn providing complementary coverage. Aggregating all three delivers comprehensive Australian hiring intelligence.

Business Challenges

Privacy Act 1988 Compliance

Australia's Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles imposed standards on personal data handling.

Multi-Platform Job Universe

Same role often posted across SEEK, Indeed Australia, and LinkedIn — required sophisticated deduplication.

Australian Skill & Qualification Taxonomy

Australian qualifications (TAFE, AQF levels, trade certifications, professional registrations) required Australia-specific taxonomy.

Mining & Resources Hiring Patterns

Australia's mining and resources sector drove distinctive hiring patterns, particularly FIFO (fly-in fly-out) roles.

Project Objectives

The client partnered with Actowiz Solutions to:

  • Index Australian job postings across SEEK, Indeed Australia, LinkedIn

  • Build Australian-specific skill and qualification taxonomies

  • Deduplicate cross-platform postings to source-employer level

  • Generate hiring velocity signals per Australian company

  • Maintain Privacy Act 1988-compliant data handling
