New Census Bureau research finds that graduates from the college majors most exposed to AI are less likely to find immediate employment and are beginning their careers with substantially lower earnings. Many are also moving away from high-paying technology and professional services jobs into retail, restaurants, and hospitality. In the second episode of a two-part series, Steve Boese examines why the first job matters, how AI may be disrupting the transition from education to employment, and what employers, universities, and graduates can do next.
