Tough being teen

Teen unemployment for May was 24%--two and a half times higher than that for the general population.

If you're teen, black and male, the unemployment rate is 45%--four times higher than the general rate.

Many students give up after 5 to 7 applications. As well they should. They haven't heard about the right way to job search--targeting gets new jobs.

The time it takes to find a job and the number of people applying for each job have both doubled since before the rescession.
