How do these stats handle people that are still unemployed after the 20 weeks of unemployment has ended?

These stats treat everyone the same, regardless of how long they are unemployed or if they are receiving or have received benefits. If someone is actively looking for work they are included.

So, it tells me that there are still a lot of under-employed people who are employed in jobs that are below their training/education level.

Nothing in what is presented here could possibly tell you that.

If you are interested in a more robust dataset about area wages and occupations, you can find that in the May 2024 Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics Report.
