More people are competing for work for fewer opportunities as the unemployment rate's expected to keep rising. 

The unemployment rate is at 4.3 % in the March quarter, the highest it's been in three years. 

Business advisor and Pivot & Pace co-founder Kendall Langston told Mike Hosking that the difference between recent years and now is night and day. 

He says this time last year you'd be getting a handful of suitable applicants, but in the last couple of weeks there can be well over 60 quality applications for a role.
