AI has injected a tremendous amount of uncertainty into the job market. Which careers are the most vulnerable, particularly at the entry level? What’s a “safe” major? What kinds of skills and experiences, in addition to coursework, will help students stand out as a strong candidate in a challenging hiring environment? How is AI changing the way we find and apply for jobs? In this session geared toward students, we’ll bring together panelists from industry and UW–Madison to share their thoughts on staying competitive in today’s rapidly changing career landscape.
