Recently, Stats NZ released their findings for August 2024s employment indicators.

The statistics show that younger New Zealanders, between the ages of 15 - 30, are struggling to get into the job market, as employers continuously choose those from older age demographics.

News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to Chief Executive and Principal Economist at Infometrics, Brad Olsen, about these findings, and why it is so difficult for young people to enter the job market here in Aotearoa.
