Background
Between February 2024 and April 2025, there was over 600 thousand Young people between the ages of 16 - 24 who are unemployed. This is up by more than 100 thousand people in the previous year, meaning the unemployment rate has gone up from 12.8% to 14.6%, over 2% increase. if the companies that operate within the UK, gave feedback to applicants they have not selected, this could drive them to do better in later applications.
