Michael Petty+FollowJob Hunting Is Now Harder Than HarvardGetting a job right now? Basically harder than getting into Harvard. The average job opening gets 242 applications, so your odds are just 0.4%. Even Harvard’s acceptance rate is higher! Blame AI for making it way too easy to apply everywhere, which just clogs up the system for everyone. No wonder people are “job hugging” and clinging to their current gigs. Would you risk quitting in this market? Some people did—and don’t regret it. Wild times! #Education #JobMarket #Career00Share
Christy Jones+FollowJob Cuts Drop, But Hiring’s Still MehBig drop in planned layoffs last month—down 53%! But don’t get too excited: companies aren’t rushing to hire either. The job market’s basically stuck in a weird “no fire, no hire” limbo. Blame tariffs, AI taking entry-level gigs, and a shaky economy. Even with fewer layoffs, hiring plans are at their lowest since 2010. The wild part? AI’s only responsible for a small chunk of the cuts (so far). #JobCareer #JobMarket #Layoffs00Share
