There are thousands of young men and women who complete the studies and
have difficulties finding a job in their profession. INSTAT data show
34% of them are still looking for a jbo.
More than 30.000 of them have been hired by telemarketing companies, known as call centers, which offer secure and sufficient revenues for some of them, but no professional career.
“I studied business management. I have been working here for 4 years. I started it when I was studying, but I was stuck here because it is difficult to find a job in your profession. They request experience, above everything else”, says a young lady.
The Social Welfare Ministry says unemployment among young people has increased because their graduation has not been based on a market study.
“There are some professions that are required by the job market, such as IT, manufacturing or processing technology”, says Genta Prodani, Director of Employment Policies.
Gezim Tushe, sociology expert, explains that massive education has caused this huge unemployment rate among youth. They cannot be hired in the government administration but should adopt their abilities with the job market.
“We are facing a boomerang today, with too many students graduated in public and private universities with a diversity of professions, but they find difficulties in the job market. Many of them think their problem will be resolved in the public administration, which is not a cow to be milked by anyone. I think the two ways remaining are orienting them with new abilities and adopt with the market, or immigration”, says sociologist Gezim Tushe.
The government is working to develop professional education and encourage employment programs for which this year they have granted 270 million ALL.
