Companies say they can't find qualified employees. Meanwhile, recent college graduates are sending out hundreds of job applications without landing a single interview....what's going on here?

I'm taking a deep dive into the data around the job market and the economy from this year (2026) to hopefulIy provide some clarity for people on all sides of this equation. I'll explain the impact of AI, which is certainly a factor, but not the whole story. I'll also make my case for why eliminating entry-level positions might save companies money today while creating a serious talent shortage tomorrow.
