A sad Reality

The scourge of unemployment is one commonly faced by countries worldwide. Neither developed nor underdeveloped nations are free from it. In some places, unemployment is the result of lack of preparations and qualification ; in others, however, hoards of newly graduated are thrust upon the labour market only to find themselves as highly qualified though unemployed professionals. What measures should be taken to revert this serious situation?

Many factory and company owners claim that high level professionals are not as needed as simply skilled workers are. High positions are usually occupied by senior and experienced workers who remain there for years. as a result, graduates who have spent years at university, end up working in posts that probably demand half of the preparation they have taken.
What is more, in the las decade, more and more companies have added to their requirements working experience and age limit. This system expects their employeed to graduate, do postgraduate courses and have at least four-year experience in the field by the time they are thirty. which turns out to be to the applicants virtually impossible to comply with. All this leads to fierce competition among newly graduates and undergraduates for the very few positions available. Such competition is disloyal since undergraduates are paid far less for the same jobs.

In the light of the seriousness of this situation a definite course of action should be adopted in the short run. There are some measures to be implemented in order to improve this situation. To begin with, shorter and much needed courses of studies should be offered. Companied together with the government could guide teenagers into practical courses of studies. In turn, workers will be offered the possibility of advancing in companies and the chance of being further qualified.
Furthermore, company requirements shoul be more down to earth. Companies should thus allocate and invest money and time to train workers who might eventually become managers. Finally, undergraduates should also be given the chance to get both expetience andqualifications without running the risk of neglecting their studies.

In conclusion, though some of the measures above metioned may sound expensive and time consuming, they represent the most reasonable step to take if an effective and productive economy is to be fostered. Making the most of people´s time and abilities is the key so solve the unemployment predicament we are caught in today.
