That’s a big issue. Employers want skilled workers, but how can someone gain experience if no one gives them a chance? That’s why internships and freelance work are becoming more important.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 3:42 amThat’s true. Even when there are job openings, they require so much experience.

Yeah, that’s because businesses are trying to save money. Economic downturns, automation, and even outsourcing jobs to other countries make it harder for people to find stable work.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 3:57 amBut even experienced workers are struggling.

Upskilling is key. Learning new skills, especially in demand-driven industries like technology, finance, and healthcare, can help. Also, networking is important—sometimes, knowing the right people helps more than just submitting applications.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 4:00 amSo what can we do?

Some governments do that by investing in public projects or supporting small businesses. But long-term solutions need economic growth and better education systems to prepare people for modern jobs.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 4:04 amThat makes sense.
