With all the job seekers looking to come to Norway, I thought some of the latest unemployment figures might be of interest to potential jobseekers. Unemployment in general is rising, and is always higher amongst immigrant groups anyway. Here is the breakdown of unemployment amongst immigrants by background:

   Unemployed Percent
Immigrants (total)    24 726 6,8
Nordic Countries    1 287 2,6
Western Europe (other)    1 334 3,2
EU countries in Eastern Europe    7 718 7,7
Eastern Europe (other)    2 254 6,7
North America and Oceania    153    2,4
Asia    7 369 7,9
Africa    3 752 13,0
South and Middle America    859    7,1
