Unemployment refers to the state of not having a job when actively seeking one. It’s when individuals who are capable and willing to work cannot find employment.
Underemployment, on the other hand, describes a situation where individuals are employed but not in positions that fully utilize their skills, experience, or available working hours
Legit where is environmental science. Feels like it belongs up in top unemployment for most of the year
i knew i should’ve pursued miscellaneous education
[deleted]
I’d really like to know the reason Nutrition Sciences has the lowest unemployment rate haha
Can anyone with insight into the medical field explain the discrepancy between Nursing and Medical Technicians??
It seems very odd that they’d have such drastic differences given their workplace similarities
As a soon to be Assistant Professor of Anthropology, all I am gonna say is…
If you gonna come for the king, you better not miss.

how is english literature not most unemployed? just kidding, baristas exist.
Technically, teaching someone how to dougie on youtube could be considered miscellaneus education, so it seems I’ve found a loophole.
pharmacy being on the least underremploye is wild. just graduated pharmacy school and everyone is so doom and gloom that there’s no jobs lol
So fucking glad I switched to nursing
How is anthropology under employed but it has the highest unemployment rate?
Can confirm mayor aerospace warehouses tons of talent.
Medical technician surprises me.
We have a hard time hireing them at work. Must be a regional issue?
Aerospace engineering is looking pretty good in both of these.
How far back does the data go? Feel like if this is cumulative all time, it’s telling a different story than maybe last 5 years?
That’s a great chart with very important information, but I think you are burying the lead by not stating that it is specifically for people between 22 and 27 years in the chart itself. Some careers just recquire more time to get into an advanced position.
Its wild that except nursing everything has a double digit unemployment rate. Thats wild.
Welp, liberal arts major and I work in biotech lmfao
Any idea what public policy and law is? Certainly not lawyers right? And it can’t be lawmakers because they get elected in so there’s only so many of those jobs.
I’m 40 percent miscellaneous education!
Lmao I went to school for CJ and now i am upper level management in warehousing.
I can remember like it was yesterday when they told us to all go into cs. Lesson learned. Pursue your dreams since you’re gonna be unemployed anyway.
Nurses have the lowest under employment yet hospitals throughout the country are critically understaffed lol
The psych hospital I work at is in a major metropolitan area and we have to constantly run units short, which creates unsafe environments that diminish the quality of direct care achievable for the patients. If nursing is truly that low on the spectrum, then it’s a miracle any of the other ones even function at all.
Am I the only one who is surprised communications degrees arent on the list of most underemployed degrees?
Thank you 18 year old me for deciding to major in Special Education because “what do you mean no one want to teach SpED? I can do that.”
Student loans were forgiven years ago and I could probably throw a dart at a map and find a job if I wanted it.
In other graphs I always see Aerospace pretty high, why’s it one of the lowest here?
It’s funny that Computer Engineering is in the lowest underemployment *and* highest unemployment groups.
As someone with an Anthropology degree, thank god I’m going to medical school…
I question this data, especially for the lower end of the age bracket. Computer science jobs are tough to find.
The irony is that people with anthropology degrees would probably be the most appropriate AI programmers
I have an Earth Science degree graduated in 2020. Got a job before graduation, have been employed since, theres no geologists anymore and everyone ive worked with is north 40 years old.
I went to one of the ‘big’ university’s in my area, there were only 5 people in my grade year.
As a civil engineer…things are HOT right now. Way too much work and no where near enough people. Not going to slow down soon. Good problem to have in times like these.
What’s the difference between the first and second sets of graphs
Performing arts majors are underemployed. What does that mean? Lots of performing arts majors double with teaching. For those in the acting, music, actual performing fields, some are not really going to have the chops to make it, and most will take years to get on the big stages, if they ever do. I don’t think any actor or musician is deluded enough to think they will be anything but waiters and dishwashers until they climb the ladder. Heck, one of the guys from Slayer said he sells T-Shirts when he’s not touring to help pay the bills.
NOW, if you mean Spotify and the industry pays them a pittance compared to the 60’s-80’s, oh hell yeah.
