the unemployment rate for recent college graduates rose to 5.6%, while the underemployment rate (the share of graduates working in jobs that typically do not require a college degree) reached 42.5%, its highest level since the covid pandemic
5.6%的毕业生失业率与42.5%的未充分就业率形成鲜明对比,后者是前者的7.5倍多。这一巨大差异表明,虽然失业率相对可控,但大量毕业生被迫从事低于其教育水平的工作,这可能对长期职业发展产生负面影响。
