In their own words: Young Londoners on the job market

We spoke to five young Londoners aged 18-23 about their experiences of finding and keeping work in the capital. Their insights helped shape our analysis of youth employment in London and challenges facing the younger generation.

We're thankful to Stephanie, Pravit, Tanya, Temitope and Opeyemi for sharing their experiences with us. We'd also like to thank Partnership for Young London.
