Tilak is frictionally unemployed. Frictional unemployment occurs when few workers are temporarily out of work while changing jobs. Frictional unemployment, also called search unemployment, and in the current scenario Tilak is in the process of finding new job thus is categorised as frictionally unemployed
Structural unemployment occurs due to decline in demand for production in a specific industry, and consequent disinvestment and decline in its manpower needs. Cyclical unemployment occurs because of the ups and downs in the business cycle over time.
