Vil ha 1000 nye trainee-stillinger i statsbudsjettet
Venstretoppen sier regjeringen ikke kan vise til et eneste tiltak rettet mot nyutdannede det i det…
The Norwegian newspaper E24 Norway reports that the Arbeiderpartiet (Worker's Party) has proposed 1000 new trainee positions in the upcoming state budget to address the high unemployment rate among newly graduated individuals with master's degrees. Despite the government's allocation of 2200 billion NOK across various budget items, there are no specific initiatives aimed at supporting young graduates in this report.
The situation is exacerbated by a 29% decrease in entry-level job opportunities for young people since 2024, while demand for senior roles remains stable. Additionally, over 9.5% of master's graduates were unemployed five months after completing their studies, with over 20% of graduates in natural and social sciences remaining unemployed in the same timeframe.
The article highlights the need for government intervention to provide young graduates with relevant experience and training, as they often face a vicious cycle of applying for numerous jobs without success.
