To anyone recommending different approaches that could help this guy get a job - look at it from the other side.

There are 9 million unemployed men such as this one (according to the article). This doesn't mean that there are 9 million job openings out there, just waiting for someone with the right resume to show up. Sure, there are probably some, but mostly, this simply means there are 9 million more workers than jobs.

Educating the unemployed will only help individuals beat someone else in the competition of scoring a job, it won't help unemployment as a whole.
