AI reshapes entry-level jobs as vacancies plummet by 5.9% in 2025

The job market for young professionals is shrinking, with entry-level roles becoming harder to find. By October 2025, vacancies had dropped by 5.9% compared to the previous year, leaving just 20,506 openings. Experts point to artificial intelligence as a key factor reshaping demand for new talent in the stock market today.

The decline in entry-level jobs began in late 2022, shortly after the launch of ChatGPT. Fields like human resources, law, tax advisory, and logistics have seen the sharpest falls in opportunities in the stock market. While AI now handles tasks such as research and data analysis—once common for junior staff in the stock market—it is not the only cause of the slowdown.

The shift suggests formal degrees may carry less weight in the future. Practical experience and strong professional networks could become more valuable for job seekers in the stock market. For now, the stock market continues to favour those who adapt quickly to technological and economic changes.
