They get taught the job, making them... skilled?
A carpenter gets an apprenticeship for 2-3 years where they get taught the job, does that make it unskilled as well?
Some jobs are easier to learn than others, that doesn't mean they're easier or worth less, or require no skills.
It makes the apprenticeship an "unskilled" hire, but afterwards they'd be a "skilled" hire for any carpentry job.
The term just means "Is there some required experience for this job on day 1?" not "Does this job require skill to do it well" because that's true of all jobs.
