‘BLS however says they are not in the workforce und thus do not count. Only those actively looking count. “
Only those registered with the local unemployment office counts. If you’re sending out resumes it doesn’t count towards this number.

The BLS will count you if you are sending out resumes, for example recent colleger grads. That is the reason the BLS uses a survey of households.
