With artificial intelligence increasingly influencing the way organisations recruit, it’s understandable that many students, graduates and employers are asking whether AI is reshaping opportunities for early career talent.
Australia’s graduate job market
While headlines often suggest entry-level roles are at greatest risk, the latest research tells a more balanced story.
We’re pleased to share this article Australian Graduates Are Still Getting Hired from our Platinum Partner, Indeed. Drawing on Australian labour market data, the research explores graduate hiring trends across the country and examines whether AI is having a measurable impact on employment opportunities for university graduates.
Changes in graduate recruitment
The findings offer reassurance that, despite a softer graduate market over the past two years, demand remains well above pre-pandemic levels and there is currently little evidence that artificial intelligence is the primary driver behind changes in graduate recruitment. For talent acquisition professionals, the article provides valuable insights into graduate hiring, workforce planning and the evolving relationship between technology and the future workforce.
