they also don't consider this when they calculate the unemployment rate

I was looking for some numbers from Germany, but they are hard to find. The trade schools are all public schools, so it's harder to get infos, plus they love to calculate the unempmoyment rate lower than it is.

From the class of my trade school, only a minority started to work directly in the related trade. Some people - including me - worked in a different area, while others went to university, since our diploma also qualified to study. So a number of those university students started to work in their trade much later.
