Fahd bin Sulaiman Al-Tikhaifi, assistant secretary of the Ministry of Labor for development, said some of them possess high educational qualifications including Ph.D.s and Master\'s. \"These unemployed women have submitted their CVs to the ministry’s employment sites applying for suitable jobs,\" he said during a presentation at the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Al-Tikhaifi explained the applicants included 78 holders of Ph.D. degrees and fellowships, 2,250 with Master\'s, 11,000 with high diplomas and more than 380,000 with bachelor’s. He said women with diplomas number 74,000 and those with high secondary school certificates were more than 530,000.
