Talent Hub Talk

In this week's episode, we cover the results of Talent Hub's annual ANZ Salesforce Survey, of which Part 1 focuses on the results from Salesforce professionals, followed by Part 2 next fortnight, where we bring you insights from Salesforce managers. You can download your copy of the ANZ Salesforce Market Survey here: https://talent-hub.com.au/2025-anz-salesforce-market-survey/ [https://talent-hub.com.au/2025-anz-salesforce-market-survey/] In this podcast, listen to Ben's response to the data, what he believes it means and why, and how it compares to what he's seeing on the ground day to day. We look at what Salesforce professionals look for in a new role, their views on AI, and where they most want to work, amongst other data points.   Whilst this survey relates to the Australia and New Zealand regions, we'd love to know whether it falls in line with your region. Tell us in a written review in whichever app you use to listen to your podcasts what you're seeing, as we're keen to hear from other regions. You can also take a peek back at our 2024 survey on our website to see how the market has evolved over the last 12 months: https://talent-hub.com.au/2024-anz-salesforce-market-survey.pdf/ [https://talent-hub.com.au/2024-anz-salesforce-market-survey.pdf/] We hope that you enjoy the episode!
