She has my sympathy.

My step son went through two years of college in carpentry/joinery.
Not a sniff of a job, anywhere.

He is nineteen now and has never worked. I can't afford to employ him as we are only just covering the bills.

He keeps looking but the constant rejection and kickbacks really get him down 

Not a good time

I found that bar work was the easiest to get at that age rather than shop work even if it is just to get work experience

Hi

It may not be her cup of tea if say she is in a relationship and trying to save for a house but what about voluntary overseas work? The employment situation maybe better on her return, the experience would improve her CV and her life (hopefully). Sort of like a year out before the serious business of mortgages and family kick in (forever).

Just a suggestion
