The land of the jobless

A massive problem that has persisted for South Africans everywhere has been unemployment. South Africa has one of the highest unemployment rates worldwide. This affects graduates too, which results in people working in fields that they would never have expected. The trend the lady participated in has tons of graduates working in places they don't want to.

The LLB degree that the lady has is something some people have been complaining about. The legal field is filled with tons of competition that makes it harder for people to earn a decent salary.

South Africans tried helping out the woman the best they could.
