They are flexible and adaptable: more than 2/3 of those looking for a job could consider retraining, even if it means training, and 92% of them are ready to make concessions to find a job (on remuneration 55%, on the duration of the contract 58% for example). 37% of them hesitate between starting a business and returning to work
