To be counted as unemployed, one must:

Question

A) have had a job previously.

B) be actively looking for a job.

C) have had a job before and be actively looking for work.

D) be out of work.

Answer 1

An unemployed is any person of legal age, with or without graduating from college, who is actively looking for work.

Letter C is the best the answer.

A - the person may not be looking for work

B - the person may be employed but he is actively looking for ANOTHER job

D - the person may have retired already; the person may not be looking for a job (e.g. the spouse can support him/her)

Answer 2

B) be actively looking for a job.

"A" - false because you may become unemployed right after university, thus without working previously.

"C" - false because "A" is false

"D" - false because you should be looking for a job in order to be counted as unemployed.

Though formally B&D would be more correct answer - but stick on "B".
