LinkedIn predicts people entering the workforce today are going to have twice as many jobs over the

Now, that's partly because people are just working longer and longer.

But the big thing, of course, is artificial intelligence.

The best thing we can do might be to hone foundational skills and, this is big, get really good at articulating how we can use them in a range of roles.

We're going to have to be able to explain how the abilities we developed in the past are transferable.

Reflective people are going to be better at this and they're the ones who will have an edge.

There are ways to practice reflection.

One is to create a personal one sheet.

One other exercise too is to fill out the soft skills and technical skills sections of your LinkedIn profile.

I know a lot of us leave these fields blank, but LinkedIn tells me that recruiters are actually filtering job candidates more and more by the skills listed in their bios.

So I think people know that you can be a master electrician or plumber and make good money, but you're thinking, oh, geez, I have to put in so much time to get there.

That's not a realistic path for me.

You take an example instead of being, say, a service advisor at an auto repair shop like this Crash Champions that I looked at, right?

So this is a

PE-backed, fast-growing company.

They had something like 13 shops five or six years ago.

Now they got over 600.

They're growing so fast that people get promoted quickly.

And if you're a service advisor, you have to know a lot about the cars, but you're not the one who's sweating under the hood doing the repairs yourself.

So you basically go through a six-month apprenticeship.
