Future-Proof Your Career in the Age of AI
Undergraduate Global Careers Report
The promise of higher education used to be simple: get the degree, then get the job. In 2026, more than ever, that promise is under threat.
Recent data shows that 89% of HR leaders avoid hiring recent graduates, citing a lack of global mindset and teamworking skills, no real-world experience, and poor business etiquette. At the same time, AI is absorbing the entry-level jobs that once offered grads a foot in the door. In fact, nearly 40% of organizations say they would rather use AI than hire a grad.
At Hult, we’ve designed our programs to turn those stats on their head. We don’t see AI as a threat to your career, but as a reason to skill up and double down on what makes you uniquely human. We focus on equipping you with today’s most in-demand professional and technical skills—including AI fluency—alongside honing the skills that can never be automated.
Through learning by doing, real-world global experience, integrated personal development coaching, and one-to-one career support, we prepare you from day one to excel in a job that might not even exist yet.
The outcomes in this report are proof of what you can expect when you choose to learn with us.
Best wishes,
