Jobseekers hunt for opportunities offered by various companies at a job fair in Gedung Ronggowarsito, Semarang city, Central Java, on Wednesday, Nov. 29. The size of the country’s ever-expanding workforce makes competition for jobs increasingly tough, requiring competence in various skills.

The country’s employment sector is facing serious challenges. The number of young people who do not work or do not have decent jobs is very large.

Last week’s International Labor Organization (ILO) report revealed that 19.4 young Indonesians aged 15-24 years were jobless. The proportion of jobless young adults not enrolled in education or training courses is 23.2 percent, while most of those with jobs work in the informal sector in dangerous jobs or do not have decent work.
