The chart compares the proportion of unemployed graduates by gender from 2008 to 2009.
Overall, it is clear from the chart that the unemployment rates for both men and women declined during this period. Notably, the rate for men was consistently higher than that for women.
Starting at exactly 10% in January 2008, the percentage of unemployed men fell to around 7% in April and July 2008. However, the figure then experienced a sharp increase to over 15% in October, followed by a steady decrease to just over 10% in July 2009, before surging to its peak at approximately 23% in October 2009.
In contrast, the unemployment rate for women saw a decrease from roughly 7% to slightly over 5% in July 2008. After a significant rise, it gradually returned to the April 2008 level exactly one year later, followed by another increase to just under 15% in October 2009. Notably, July 2009 was the only month when the women’s unemployment rate nearly matched that of men, showing exactly 10% compared to just marginally over 10% for men.
