The surprising group of workers struggling to get hired... and why experts are puzzled
Recent male graduates are struggling to get jobs, and experts are puzzled as to why. Men aged 22 to 27 with at least a bachelor's degree are now unemployed at higher rates than the general population. Over the past year, unemployment among this group has climbed from 5 to 7 percent, the analysis from the Financial Times found. For their female peers, joblessness has stayed nearly flat — even dropping slightly in some cases. The findings mean young men with degrees are now unemployed at the same rate as those without one, a startling reversal of long-standing trends. The narrative has suggested that the unstoppable rise of AI is wiping out entry-level jobs in male-dominated fields such as computer engineering. But the FT's analysis found that hiring for software engineering and related roles has actually begun to rebound in recent months, leaving the cause of the slump unclear. Young women's employment seems to be faring better in part because they take up more healthcare roles which are always in demand. Recent male graduates are now more likely to be unemployed than their peers without degrees Healthcare roles are increasing as the demands of an ageing population also increase. Many of the roles are also hands-on and therefore not easily automated. Around 50,000 of the 135,000 new jobs taken up by young women graduates in the past year were in healthcare. That figure represents more than double the total number of additional jobs taken up by their male peers in any sector in the same period, the FT reported. However, for both men and women graduating college it is the most difficult time in a decade to get that first foot on the career ladder, according to the latest government figures. Young Americans are complaining that employers want years of experience even for entry level positions. Others are saying that they are having to apply for over 60 jobs before finally landing a tentative position. Overall national unemployment remains reasonably low at 4 percent, but this rises to 6.6 percent for new college graduates, Labor Department numbers show. The figures show a rise from the 6 percent unemployment rate for recent graduates the same time a year ago. It is part of a wider trend that has seen entry-level hiring fall by a staggering 17 percent since April 2019, according to data from LinkedIn. The bad news for new graduates comes despite a stronger-than-expected jobs report earlier this month which indicated that the labor market was holding steady amid the economic turbulence caused by President Donald Trump's tariffs. The economy added 139,000 jobs in May, above the Dow Jones estimate for 125,000. But despite the better than expected numbers, it was still a retreat in job growth from April, signaling remaining uncertainty about where the US economy is headed. Meanwhile, the work habits of Gen Z — those born between 1997 and 2012 — are increasingly under scrutiny. Bosses are firing Gen Z in record time, a recent study revealed.

Emily Ratajkowski Manages To Nail Four Outfits In One Day

(Photo by TheStewartofNY/GC Images) Four different engagements at four locations all across town sounds tiring enough, now throw three outfit changes into the mix and that is what Emily Ratajkowski was up to on Wednesday. While in New York City promoting Lena Dunham's newest project Too Much , the actress and model not only showed off four different ensembles but also demonstrated two ways to style one of the more controversial yet persisting trends of the year. For her first appearance, Ratajkowski opted for a sleek Calvin Klein suit consisting of a long-line blazer featuring tortoiseshell buttons. She paired the piece with fitted trousers and added a touch of glamour to the business attire with black Paris Texas mule pumps and large sunglasses. Later in the day she was spotted wearing the same shoes and shades, however, this time with a pair of black capris and an Emily Dawn Long blazer. The long-sleeved jacket featured a scoop neck and three colourful ceramic buttons. Emily Ratajkowski is seen in Midtown on July 16, 2025 in New York City.

She took the look from dressed up to down by swapping out the blazer with a slouchy baseball tee from Bode, reading 'I'm a speed skater.' With just one swap Ratajkowski demonstrated the versatile styling opportunities for the divisive 2000s inspired trend – though who's to say if that is enough to convince the capri naysayers.

Ratajkowski wore a blue python print dress from the Spring 2000 Gucci collection, styled with the same shoes which had carried her throughout the day's events. If there is one thing we can take from the model's day, it's the power of a capsule wardrobe. Or at the very least, the importance of staple pieces that can take you from day to night with ease.
