Teenage Jobs Report

Posted: Updated:

Teenage job seekers had a pretty good month in May. The government's May jobs report shows a seasonally adjusted increase of 67-thousand teenagers between the ages of 16 and 19 with jobs.  That's the biggest May increase in that reading since 1999.

Experts say, while encouraging, the numbers aren't a sign of an easy job market for teens, who are still struggling with almost a 25-percent unemployment rate.
