The UK tech sector is cutting graduate jobs dramatically โ€“ down 46 percent in the past year, with another 53 percent drop projected, according to figures from the Institute of Student Employers (ISE).

The culprit? AI is already doing the entry-level work graduates used to perform like routine coding, data analysis, and basic digital tasks. Companies still need tech talent, but they're hiring experienced workers instead of training newcomers.
