Bigger question is where do entry level people get jobs? And when competition is happening over experienced employees when do companies start falling back to entry level because the cost of experience is too high?
This report is out on LinkedIn I you want to go look at it and OP has made something a little misleading, the overall piece here is that entry level college graduates with no experience or skills will have a harder time getting hired. However, even in today’s job market applicants are bringing years worth of skills and they are still not getting hired!
I have 2 degrees and a certificate working on my next, I have over two dozen skills sitting on my résumé or going into an application when I apply – none of it makes a difference. Last year I sent out over 700 applications and got responses on only 40% to include thanks but no thanks.
I had less than 20 interviews total. That’s what this job market is, it’s company saying you don’t have enough experience/skills but then when they’re presented with hundreds of applicants with experience/skills, ATS filters them all out.
I've heard the same thing being talked about. Part of the problem is that AI tools can augment jobs to the point where some entry level jobs can be eliminated. It's as if no one really thinks about who will be available to ascend to higher positions in a few years.
