Entry-level jobs provide a special window into the wider changes we'll see to job design and skill development. In this episode of Meet the Leader, Peter Brown of PwC explains how entry-level roles are transforming and breaks down new research on what employers really want from entry-level workers now. He also shares how these roles can continue to serve as training grounds for career skills like collaboration, critical thinking, and relationship building and why a thoughtful redesign of these roles will be key to future leadership development. Top names from our Chief People Officer community also share the advice new grads need to know in a fast-changing job market.
Key takeaways:
The most dire headlines about entry-level jobs are not yet backed up by data.
Employers are increasingly prioritizing applied experience and skills over degrees alone.
Employers are expecting more 'seniorized' skills earlier.
New grads should focus on outcomes rather than tasks and look for ways to build human skills on purpose.
