WSJ Your Money Briefing · How Young Professionals Can AI-Proof Their Career · 3 Jan 2025 podcast

For younger professionals just starting out, there are ways they can AI-proof their job search and their entry into the workforce. voice-verified

We'll talk to Wall Street Journal reporter Bob Hagerty after the break. voice-verified

The current generation of college graduates is competing with AI in addition to other candidates as they look for work. voice-verified

Wall Street Journal reporter Bob Hagerty joins me to discuss ways they can AI-proof their search and their careers. voice-verified

Bob, where on the career ladder is AI expected to have the most impact? voice-verified

I guess one of those is just to be prepared. voice-verified

But people's skills come more easily for some than others, right? voice-verified

And how does that insulate you from AI? voice-verified

We often hear people talk about thinking outside the box. voice-verified

Why is that important when finding ways to protect your career from AI? voice-verified

I like the way you characterized it in your story, be a moderate misfit. voice-verified

Businesses use AI to accomplish a full range of tasks. voice-verified

But why do career counselors suggest that people think about taking on big projects to help them? voice-verified

Some educational leaders have said having a portfolio of skills can be effective in protecting your career, much like installing the solar panels on the bus. voice-verified

But is having a wide range of skills enough? voice-verified

We've been talking about AI proofing your career, but what are people you spoke to say about the value of understanding AI and then being able to work with it? voice-verified

So it's best not to view AI as the enemy or an adversary. voice-verified

Definitely. voice-verified

You have to treat it as this is a must-have tool, but I have to have other things as well. voice-verified

That's WSJ's Bob Haggerty, and that's it for your Money Briefing. voice-verified
