How to Start Your Career in the AI Era with Kyla Scanlon

The economy sends mixed signals, AI is reshaping roles in real time, and entry-level positions feel harder to land than ever—so how do you make smart career moves when the rules keep changing?

In this conversation with Hello Monday host Jessi Hempel, Kyla Scanlon—bestselling author of In This Economy?: How Money & Markets Really Work and one of today’s most influential economic thinkers—breaks down what the data actually tells us about the job market versus how it feels. Kyla explores the “vibecession,” the widening gap between economic indicators and consumer sentiment, and explains why AI is not yet the job killer the headlines suggest. She shares practical strategies for building a career during uncertainty, from leveraging human networks and building in public to choosing a safe first job while developing skills on the side.
