Among unemployed workers, those with a bachelor’s degree (13.5%) were more likely than those
with some college (11.9%) or those with less than a high school education (11.4%) to have been
looking for work for two years or more. However, the percentage of unemployed workers with a
high school education only (12.8%) who had been looking for work for two or more years was
not statistically different from the percentage of unemployed workers with a bachelor’s degree
(13.5%) or the percentage with an advanced or professional degree (13.9%) who had been
looking for work for two years or longer.
