AI is gutting the next generation of talent: In tech, job openings for new grads have already been halved
""For many new graduates, the first rung of the corporate ladder is getting harder to reach. Entry-level roles, typically defined as positions requiring no more than one year of prior full-time experience and providing on-the-job training, are becoming increasingly rare in many white-collar industries.""
""Job postings are down, internships are converting to fewer permanent roles, and some employers now expect 'entry-level' hires to arrive with skills once taught in-house.""
Entry-level corporate jobs are becoming less accessible to new graduates, with a notable drop in job postings and internships transitioning into fewer permanent roles. Many employers now expect entry-level candidates to possess skills previously taught through on-the-job training. The rise of artificial intelligence is further contributing to this trend by automating junior tasks, which incentivizes companies to cut early-career hiring. Experts caution that while this may result in cost savings, it risks undermining the future leadership capabilities of these organizations.
