What the petition asks
Most jobs require experience, how can those of us teenagers who have left school get a job when most are asking for experience. Employers aren’t giving us a chance to try. Also the online assessments for jobs, they are ridiculous as it’s the reason we are being rejected, they won’t let us try.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
