Business Rundown: Tips On How To Find Your Dream Job In 2026 Dec 26, 2025

Show notes

There is a lot of discussion about "affordability," especially regarding young Americans' ability to buy their first home and achieve financial stability.

A key step in achieving that American dream is getting a good job, but the problem is that getting that job has become harder, especially for Gen Z.

Economic growth is being driven by productivity and investment in artificial intelligence, rather than by hiring. This is creating what some call a "jobless boom" in some industries.

Translation: the job market is very competitive.

Suzy Welch, a Professor of Management Practice at NYU’s Stern School of Business, and author of the book Becoming You, joins FOX Business' Lydia Hu to discuss the state of the job market and how to navigate it.
