Because they are not evenly distributed.
60% of everyone lives in Asia, another 17% in Africa, 9.6% in Europe and 7.6% in North America, 5.5% in South America and 0.5% Oceania.
You are most likely from North America or Europe where the population growth has been stagnant for decades.
Now another factor is that not everyone is qualify for every job. And there might be no qualified personal in where the job is.
Another reason is that the business is unwilling to provide proper compensation for that job. It might just be more profitable to operate understaffed for them.
Another thing is that the number of young people has not been going up with population growth. The number of old people is going up.
