  A few of my friends learned trades like optometrist and cosmetician and never found a job.

    Germany has an unemployment rate of 3.2% so it seems something’s working. Youth unemployment is also far lower in Germany than the European average, 7.6% rather than 23.5%, and unemployment among those who finished apprenticeship schemes rarely lasts longer than six months[1].

      Yes, the problem is, people learning optometrist, and then end up working in retail.
