Stress Test

No jobs in this economy: Why the labour market is so brutal right now


Listen Later

The job market for young Canadians is terrible these days. Lots of qualified, talented people are sending out tons of resumes and getting zero replies. We hear from two recent grads who have been struggling for months to get an interview, let alone a job offer. Then Erica Alini, The Globe’s personal economics reporter, speaks with Matt Lundy, The Globe’s economics editor, about the conditions driving high unemployment for young Canadians, lessons they learned as new graduates during the global financial crisis, and how AI is changing the hiring process for both applicants and employers.
