Are you 18-24 and unemployed?

The number of 16 to 24-year-olds out of work rose from 928,000 to 947,000 - edging closer to the landmark of one million and adding to fears of a new "lost generation" of young people.

We always see stats but is anybody on here in the category, plenty of young people on here.

If you are in education and unemployed I don't think you are classed in the 947k, I think its just people claiming JSA/benefits.

I took a part time job in March and worked for a company from 18 till I was 25 till the place shut. Was out of work for about 5 months.
