A few months ago, we got an email from a reader seeking advice from journalists covering education and job training.

The reader’s granddaughter will be off to college soon. She and her friends are all wondering how to prepare for a world where artificial intelligence threatens to gobble up so many white-collar jobs. 

“Can we predict where the lasting jobs will be?” the reader asked.

The truth: We really didn’t know the answer. But we’re gonna get to the bottom of that and more, by reporting on how AI is changing the job search and the advice colleges give students as they plan their careers.

That’s where you come in. If you’re a student — or know one — help us out by filling out this short form or sharing it. The answers will help us ask better questions and address the real concerns students have.

As AI rapidly changes, well, seemingly everything around us, we’re learning right alongside you. Email me with more questions, as always: mdunlap@wisconsinwatch.org.
