There are no jobs for us

A few weeks ago in the newspaper there was an article about labour expectations in México. It talked about how many young adults have an interest in working but have no job expectations. In 2009 with the population between 14 and 29 years old there was an 8.94% that had no labour expectations, which is the highest that has ever been. Why is this happening? Because of the crisis many companies have closed, investment is lower and salaries are too. The only ones who can aspire to have a job, that would probably not fit their expectations, are the ones with the higher level of education and with the best academic preparation. All this means that 2.7 million young adults don't have job aspirations. What is left for us to do is study harder and better, because until there are more jobs or more companies, which could take years or not happen, we need to be the best of the best, otherwise we won't be good enough even for a job consider to have a low rank. And according to experts, the vision of the future isn't getting any better.
