The creator of the universe has sent a man into this world as the best of creations so that he can find his occupation and live his life easily utilizing all the blessings given by his Lord. If a person does not get job opportunities, it will be very difficult for him to live. Now it is the duty of the state to provide employment opportunities to citizens. Along with education, the government should also provide its citizens with opportunities to acquire skills that will help them gain employment.
The common perception of unemployment involves the rural and uneducated population, but the reality could not be further from the truth. Over the years, the country has witnessed an increasing number of unemployed degree holders. In fact, the unemployment rate among graduates is almost three times that of the rest of the unemployed workforce. According to the Labor Force Survey 2017-18, more than 87,000 young people have a bachelor's degree. Of these, more than 59,000 are "economically active", while 970,000 are unemployed. According to these figures, the graduate unemployment rate is much higher than the national average of 5.8%.
According to a report by the Pakistan Institute of Economic Development, more than 31 percent of Pakistan's youth are currently unemployed, and of this number, 51 percent are women and 16 percent are men, many of whom have professional qualifications. Citizens of Pakistan are facing unemployment in all walks of life but if medicine and engineering are called famous and famous fields of Pakistan then it will be right because every Pakistani parent inculcates their idea in their children's minds from childhood. Their conditions are not good either.
In Pakistan, if we talk about engineers, they are also facing a very serious situation. According to the research of "The Pakistan Engineering Council", more than 50 thousand engineers are unemployed in Pakistan. In some cases, graduates are looking for job opportunities in 2015, 2016, and 2017 but without success. They are impatiently waiting for work, but there is no one to relieve them of their worries.
After their bachelor's, many new engineers struggle with unemployment, which in some cases lasts for months. Using connections, some lucky people get a job within the first month of graduation, but not everyone has the means or the luck to do so.
Similarly, if we talk about the field of medicine, the situation is not good there either. Medical students work hard day and night for five years to get their degree, but they also fail to get jobs that match their qualifications. In Pakistan. There are about 114 medical colleges producing 16 thousand doctors every year but Pakistan is still facing a shortage of doctors. Among many reasons, one of the main reasons is that they are not getting job opportunities. Because of this, many doctors leave to look for good jobs abroad. This is the situation for science graduates, but if we are talking about bachelor's and master's students, the situation is even worse. They go round and round and get stuck, or spend all day in a dream world looking for a shortcut, but they don't succeed.
The main reason for unemployment in Pakistan is the lack of vocational institutions. Even if there are professional institutes, they are like salt in the flour. The young generation of any country is the architect of the country's future and plays a very important role in the country's economy. It is therefore the duty of the state to provide its young generation with opportunities for qualifications that will benefit not only them but also the state in their future life.
All over the world, including in European countries, career counseling is already carried out at the school level, they are told about their education and practical life. But they prove to be beneficial for their country as well.
In this era of information technology, it is necessary for the country to introduce computer education common in all educational institutions in a practical form instead of traditional reading and career counseling of children in all schools so that the young generation is "rotating" and "skillful". "he is well aware of the difference.
