Why are graduate jobs falling?
The story highlights a sharp 45% drop in advertised graduate jobs in July, the lowest since 2016. Employers are pointing to rising hiring costs and the increasing use of AI as key reasons. This suggests businesses might be tightening budgets or finding new tech solutions for tasks previously done by new graduates.
