BYU offers job search resources for students, alums
BYU students often worry about whether or not they will be able to find a job after graduation. A quick look at the numbers will show that students should not worry as much as they do. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national unemployment rate as of January 2015 was 5.7 percent. That means that out of all people looking for a job, including low-skilled workers and people with only a high school diploma, fewer than 6 percent of them are looking for a job at any given time. In Utah, the unemployment rate is even lower at 2.8 percent.
