As AI takes over more of the “easy” work in software development, many companies are scaling back junior hiring. But here’s the problem: without entry-level opportunities, where will tomorrow’s experts come from? In this episode, Brian C. Newman explores why early-career roles still matter, how apprenticeships can be reimagined in the AI era, and what metrics prove the ROI of keeping the pipeline alive.
This episode is especially valuable for:
- Engineering leaders who want to balance short-term AI productivity with long-term talent growth
- Developers and mentors who care about building the next generation of experts
- Technology executives looking for a business case to justify junior hiring in the age of AI
You will walk away with a practical Four-Step Apprenticeship Ladder, a simple mentor playbook that takes less than an hour a week, and clear ways to measure the business value of growing new talent.
