Need a hand with finding some information from this website.→[More:]
I'm trying to find statistics/trends on the job outlook/unemployment rate for college graduates, but I'm having a hard time finding my way around the site.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

You should call them tomorrow. My first job in DC was at the BLS (I edited and built the website for the SOC 10 years ago), and I know they do a lot of their business via phone. Heck, I still know some folks there--if you can't find what you need, I might be able to find someone who can help.

CF, you could try looking at this document; actual and projected job outlook for college grads, 2004-14. Also, this data is collected monthly as part of the Current Population Survey.
