"AI and automation may close some doors, yet they will also create new jobs, many of which do not yet exist. The real test for business leaders is whether they can prepare and empower those who face barriers to opportunity to confidently embrace these new opportunities. Building pathways into these new roles is the competitive advantage for companies that need to access the full breadth of available talent."
"LinkedIn's long-standing partnership with Year Up United has created powerful impact. Audrey Rhodes Market, Senior Talent Program Manager at LinkedIn, explores how effectively telling the story of this work is critical to sustaining and growing early-talent career pathways that fuel business performance, expand opportunity, and help shape a more equitable workforce in the age of AI. The conversation about AI and the future of work often centers on what might disappear, but at LinkedIn, we're focused on what can emerge."
LinkedIn and Year Up United collaborate to create internship pipelines that have launched hundreds of careers while strengthening business outcomes. The partnership aligns LinkedIn's mission to create economic opportunity with Year Up United's mission to equip young adults without college degrees with skills, experiences, and support. Career Pathways programs provide career readiness, skills training, internships, and life-changing opportunities for non-degree-holding young adults. The internship program delivers hands-on experience, skill sharpening, and meaningful contributions to teams. Success and scalability of these early-talent pathways depend on effective storytelling to sustain growth and expand equitable access to emerging AI-era roles.
