Stats released a few days ago indicate that the teen unemployment rate is at an all time high.

The unemployment rate for teenagers in the labor force soared to 27.6% in October, up 1.8 percentage points from the month before and hitting a third straight record high

That means that more than 1/4 of teens looking for work can’t find a job.

Seems like the jobless recovery is continuing. It just goes to show that teens (along with everyone else these days) will need to go above and beyond in order to land a position.
