Christopher (L), a 24-year-old unemployed Frenchman, submits his curriculum vitae to a shopkeeper as he looks for a job in Marseille June 17, 2013. In addition to making job applications, once a month Christopher meets with a job counselor at a Mission Locale for Employment (Youth Employment Agency) which has yet to lead to permanent employment. On June 26, 2013, French labour ministry data showed the number of unemployed people in mainland France was stable in May with a negligible rise of 100 people, just nudging the total to a new all-time high of 3,264,500.
