Make informed career moves in a changing market
The tech market in 2025 feels different. There’s less hype and more precision.
Salaries have plateaued. AI is rewriting job scopes. Employers are hiring slower, but smarter. So how do you stay competitive – without starting from scratch?
Start with clarity.
The 2025 Talenza Jobseeker Salary Guide puts verified market data and forward-looking insight in your corner. Whether you’re eyeing a move, planning a pay conversation, or figuring out how your role stacks up, the guide helps you see where you stand (and what’s next).
In a shifting market, being informed isn’t optional. It’s your edge.

See where you stand – and where to go next
It’s not just what you earn, but what’s shifting around you. Use the guide to see:
- Which roles are seeing salary stabilisation (and where niche skills still earn a premium).
- Where employers are focusing on expertise over headcount – and what that means for your next move
- How AI is changing job scopes across engineering, data, cloud, and delivery.
- What leadership looks like in 2025 – and which mid-level skills are stepping into the spotlight.
