Abstract: This study delves into the challenges faced by unemployed youth in Bangladesh, revealing a significant disparity between the expectations of young graduates and the realities of the labour market. The findings, based on a survey of both unemployed and employed youth, highlight key areas of mismatch, such as salary, required skills, working hours, and working conditions.
