Two recently arrived immigrants from the Soviet Union have urged Israel Radio, which can be heard in Moscow, to broadcast news about job opportunities because Jewish activists in the USSR are worried about reports of rising unemployment in Israel. Michael Rapaport and Konstantin Golesko, both in their 20’s and married, arrived in Israel less than a month ago. At a meeting this week with Absorption Minister Yaacov Tsur, they said that despite jamming, Israel Radio should report job openings and describe in what fields, especially high technology, vacancies exist.
