Explanation:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics defines unemployed as those who do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 - week period, and are currently available for work. Someone working part - time (even if wanting full - time) is employed. Someone on vacation from a regular job is still employed. A woman staying home to care for children is not in the labor force as she is not actively seeking work. The person who hasn't worked in four weeks but sent out resumes last week meets the criteria of being unemployed as they are jobless, actively seeking work, and available for work.

Answer:

Someone who hasn't worked in four weeks but who sent out 3 - 4 resumes last week
