How to Succeed as an Early Career Professional
Briefly

As AI technology increasingly replaces entry-level jobs, young graduates face daunting challenges in their job searches and career development. Entry-level roles are vital for gaining essential skills and knowledge, yet a significant number of employers express concerns about hiring recent graduates. Reports reveal that many hiring managers view these young professionals as entitled and unprepared for the workforce. This ongoing stigma complicates the transition from school to work, prompting graduates to engage in intentional efforts to alter these perceptions and demonstrate their value in the workplace.
Without them, individuals risk losing critical opportunities to develop skills and knowledge on how to do work.
Ninety-eight percent of employers say their organization is struggling to find talent, but nearly 90 percent say they avoid hiring recent grads.
More than half say recent grads are unprepared for the workforce and difficult to manage.
It's tempting, and not altogether wrong, for today's new graduate to push back on these perceptions.
