A Year Later


Listen Later

Unemployment rates are way down across the country and that’s especially true here in Central Ohio, at a little over 3%. The unemployment rate of 16 to 24-year-olds, however, is much higher than that at about 11%.

Just because people have a job, doesn’t mean they’ve found the right job. With 270,000 open jobs in our region, Rivet seeks to connect individuals to all those opportunities.

This episode looks directly at the jobs out there, following-up with some of the young folks we profiled in Season 1, to see where they are – a year later.
