English – The Conversation | As entry-level jobs dry up in NZ, how can we help young people find their way into work? by Rod McNaughton, Professor of Entrepreneurship, University of Auckland, Waipapa Taumata Rau

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Young New Zealanders are facing a sharp decline in entry‑level positions, with youth unemployment now around 15%—roughly three times the overall rate—and traditional junior office and administrative roles disappearing. The main driver is the rapid automation of predictable, repetitive tasks by AI, which has led many firms to cut back on hiring and redesign jobs to require more complex, on‑the‑fly skills, while a surge in university graduates intensifies competition for the few remaining slots. As employers cite a lack of on‑the‑job learning opportunities and low awareness of AI‑related roles, the labour market’s “on‑ramp” for gaining practical experience is eroding, forcing universities to expand work‑integrated learning and entrepreneurship education, yet they alone cannot solve the deeper problem of keeping pathways into work open for young people.

The rise of AI highlights how the resume, once meant to standardize hiring, has become easily fabricated, undermining its usefulness and underscoring the need for more effective ways to evaluate job candidates. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/04/14/ai-hastens-resumes-demise/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #resumes #jobs #employers #employees

AI is hastening the resume’s demise. Good riddance.
