Finding a job must be challenging, especially for someone lacking in abilities, they may feel "under qualified." A recent study of 2,000 American job candidates was done by OnePoll, a market research company, on behalf of Adecco Group to determine how many people are having trouble finding employment and the potential causes of it. Although some were still looking for their ideal work, half of the respondents were employed. The event took place between October 4 and October 10, 2022.
In accordance to the study, despite 39% who said that they are confident that their job could brighten their future, majority of them do not think that way. 77% would better be more applicable for jobs if they were given a chance to learn new abilities.
Furthermore, 67% of respondents said that they would be more intrigued in their profession if they were about to adapt new skills while still managing to work, but only if their company permits them to. If their employer required them to learn more about their jobs than just the bare minimum, two thirds of them would be more contented with their careers and futures, which is a crucial component in a person's progress as a learner.
But, there are still some people out there who are confident in their abilities and how they may be applied to other aspects of different careers (69%). Despite wanting to or not, 47% of respondents to the study said they would not going to work on improving their abilities since doing so is initially challenging for job seekers.
With the current economic circumstances, high inflammation, financial concerns, etc., finding a job in this generation might be a very difficult issue that could ultimately result in unemployment. In addition, 52% of Americans claimed that at some time in their lives, they had been passed up for a number of jobs because they lacked the "sufficient abilities" to be qualified for the position. In the study, 59 percent of participants felt pessimistic about their ability to even apply for a job.
Nevertheless, Molly Conway, Vice President of Public Affairs at Adecco Group, suggests that businesses provide job applicants an education focused on their occupations while still allowing them to continue working. These job searchers may benefit much from this and use it to build a brighter future. So who precisely should be in charge of providing them with employment training? 2/3 of respondents say it is their employers' responsibility; while 46%, 26%, and 16%, respectively, think it’s their own, educational institutions, and the government.
According to the study, employers should be committed to providing work training as well, with 56% of respondents saying that employees should have dedicated time for acquiring skills,33% and 32% said that they should have a good diploma in their industry and talents for mentoring, respectively. 50% think they should have enough information about education.
Another finding from this survey indicated that financial situation – 45%, transportation – 31%, time management – 31%, and less equipment – 23%, may be the most frequent causes of respondents' pessimism towards their work education.
