THE REAL UNEMPLOYMENT RATE!
I have some opinions on what the real unemployment rate is. I feel the rate is at 10% broken down as follows:
  • 4% are unemployable, always looking for work, homeless etc.
  • 3% are workers companies' have wanted to fire for years but didn't because of the low number of replacement candidates.
  • 3% are the workers companies had to layoff but wanted to keep.
The Real Unemployment Rate – 3%

Now you have to wade through the 7%, which is a large task. Others have told me that they feel the real unemployment rate could be as high as 14%. That is why staffing and recruiting companies still have work. No one has the time and resources to commit to the screening process. A recent Internet job posting we had generated 1,200 resumes for a job that clearly stated NO RESUMES! That is how you screen out candidates. We simply asked them to come to the office to interview. By the way, this was not a low paying job so it is not just blue-collar workers who cannot follow directions. We also have been given a recent order for temps and after carefully screening applicants, 2 out of 4 failed to show up for the first day.
I guess reruns of Andy Griffith had a higher priority.
