AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

AI and Hiring: Cover letters are losing their value as a hiring signal: AI makes polished applications easy to produce, while a surge in applicants leaves recruiters less time to read them. Youth Employment: South Korea’s central bank says young people are increasingly pushed into temporary work as AI and employers’ preference for experienced hires shrink entry-level pathways. Apprenticeships: UK employers warn that raising training costs for workers over 25 could shift opportunities rather than create more jobs for young people. Older Workers: Singapore plans to raise retirement and re-employment ages early, alongside more support for employers, aiming to give older staff greater choice and make workplaces more age-friendly. Skills Pathways: A proposed Peterborough hub would offer 16-to-24-year-olds employability classes, career guidance and vocational training linked to jobs and apprenticeships.
