Changes in the Labour Market: A Diploma is Not the Only Entrance

The article discusses changing trends in the labor market, emphasizing that a university diploma is no longer sufficient for secure entry into employment. Employers now seek individuals who can immediately take on jobs, making work experience gained during studies a significant advantage for young candidates. In the UK, the number of available graduate positions has dropped by nearly 50% in a year, partly due to employers using artificial intelligence to reduce the number of graduate internships. There is concern that AI could create generations of young people without prospects, especially those raised on the internet and early exposure to social networks. Rising operational costs also lead companies to save on new hiring wherever possible. In July, there were only 8,383 graduate positions available, compared to 15,397 a year earlier. The decline was noted alongside over 55,000 positions in mid-2017.
