AI reshapes entry-level hiring for recent graduates
Recent college graduates face a challenging job market, with unemployment among 22-27 year olds at 5.7% (June 2026), well above the national average. AI is increasingly used by employers for screening applications, with 66% of recruiters planning to increase AI use in pre-screening. While students are adding AI skills to resumes, many Gen Z remain skeptical about AI's role in their careers. Research from Handshake shows seniors mentioning AI skills at double the rate of 2022 graduates, with 74% tied to real-world projects. The NY Fed finds AI is not the main driver of hiring slowdown but may affect entry-level roles. Experts advise job seekers to be 'AI-forward.'
