"the longest and worst period of unemployment in modern times" says the world book encyclopedia. people lost jobs overnight. Even college graduates had a hard time finding jobs straight out of college. Fact: in 1933 the unemployment rate was 25%. during this time, more then 200,000 young people drifted around the u.s. looking for a job. people who kept jobs took large paycuts. the average wage cut was 18%.
The employment amount in the great depression was really low. Mostly on agriculture, because the dust bowl was going in at that time and the farmers were forced to quit their jobs so all of the farmers in Texas and part of other states (which made up most of the states' population) were unemployed.
many factories and businesses just closed and dismissed all their workers. it was nearly impossible to find a job.
