Liz Ann Sonders reveals rising unemployment among recent graduates
@LizAnnSonders: Sonders on rising graduate unemployment
The unemployment rate for recent graduates has seen a significant increase, reaching 5.8% through March.
Liz Ann Sonders' recent tweet highlighted this trend, which affects individuals aged 22 to 27 holding at least a bachelor's degree, according to data from the New York Federal Reserve. This development raises concerns about the job market conditions for young professionals entering the workforce amidst economic uncertainties.
Sonders' observations underscore the challenges facing higher education graduates in securing employment that aligns with their qualifications. This trend, if it continues, may necessitate a reassessment of support structures for young job seekers and new graduates.

The heightened job market pressures facing recent graduates coincide with broader economic patterns Sonders has tracked, including the sustained S&P 500 outperformance over the Russell 2000, a divergence that may signal deeper shifts in employment dynamics. Additionally, the Federal Reserve’s decision to hold rates steady while signaling a potential 2025 cut, as Sonders has reported, underscores the complex environment young professionals must now navigate.
