In February, China's youth unemployment rate rose to 15.3%, indicating continued pressure in the recent graduate job market. The jobless rate for people aged 16-24 showed an increase from the 14.6% recorded in January and the 14.9% from December. This rise comes after policymakers spent months refining their methodology for calculating unemployment statistics.
