College graduates have become one of the largest blocks among the unemployed and undermployed.
It's a textbook case of what economists call credential inflation.
More and more people get degrees, but that degree don't guarantee anything.
They're the minimum requirement just to compete for jobs that often don't pay enough to live on.
Consider a registered nurse or medical technologist working in a private hospital.
They're gone through four years of university, clinical rotations, board exams, and often additional certifications.

outside Metro Manila.
Now, compare that to the global gig market.
A Filipino virtual assistant charging a modest $5 an hour can in theory make around $800 a month working full-time for foreign clients, even accounting for dry spells, platform fees, and non-billable time.
