JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon bets on THESE skills to beat GenZ's entry-level job uncertainty
The GenZ job market is ever-changing, especially with the AI revolution but JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has some good news and advice for jobseekers. For freshers, the job market has been full of mixed signal. One moment, AI is being expected to wipe out most entry-level jobs, and the next moment leaders are seen complaining about talent shortage across industries. However, according to Jamie Dimon, the key to job security is not a mystery but only requires studying the right things. Speaking at Business Roundtable's CEO Workforce Forum earlier this month, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon revealed that there are still come areas where businesses are short on skills and require young people to fill that gap. Companies need young experts in fields like cyber, coding and programming, as well as financial and program management, the billionaire said. 'We are short on labour,' he agreed. However, Dimon added that 'We all have needs for cyber, we all have needs for coding, we all have needs for programming, we have needs for financial management and programme management, things like that.' The CEO's comments come at a time when Amazon admitted to soon cutting corporate ranks due to focussing more on AI and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warned that technology could eliminate half of the entry-level white collar jobs. Dimon also noted that many educational institutions are not providing enough of this specialised training so that the GenZ could become the next generation of coders or program managers. The 69-year-old billionaire had previously highlighted that classrooms should put more focus on their pupils getting jobs right after they graduate rather than in traditional education. 'If you look at kids they gotta be educated to get jobs,' he told Indianapolis-based WISH-TV last year. 'Too much focus in education has been on graduating college… It should be on jobs. I think the schools should be measured on, did the kids get out and get a good job,' Dimon added. However, the JPMorgan Chase CEO is not the only one who flagged this need for more focus on jobs. Microsoft's Satya Nadella, Airbnb's Brian Chesky, and Salesforce's Marc Benioff came together to write a letter, demanding access to computer science and AI education for all students.

Pics: Bill Gates, Girlfriend Paula Hurd At Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez Wedding
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and his girlfriend Paula Hurd made a striking appearance together at a wedding welcome party for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. Bill Gates and Paula Hurd were photographed hand in hand at the exclusive pre-wedding event, which was held in a historic cloister next to the iconic Madonna dell'Orto church in Venice.

Invitados a la boda Lauren y Jeff Bezos - Rania de Jordania - Bill Gates y Paula Hurd #bezoswedding — Eric Cartman (@Cartman_Freedom) June 27, 2025 The two were accompanied by other high-profile guests, including Oprah Winfrey, Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, Tom Brady, Orlando Bloom, the Kardashian sisters and Gayle King. Jeff Bezos got married to Lauren Sanchez on Saturday at a star-studded ceremony on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice. The celebrations are expected to end on June 28 with a grand farewell party, likely at the Arsenale, a former naval site which is now famous for its art exhibitions. According to a Reuters report, Mr Bezos's wedding is estimated to cost around $55 million, making it one of the most expensive weddings of the year. Reports state that Lauren Sanchez has prepared 27 outfits to wear for her festivities. Jeff Bezos had been staying at the luxury 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal with a view of the Rialto Bridge. Bill Gates and Paula Hurd also reportedly attended Mr Bezos's engagement party in 2023, which was held on the Amazon founder's $500 million superyacht on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. Mr Gates confirmed his relationship in February this year, referring to Paula Hurd as his "serious girlfriend", four years after his divorce from Melinda Gates. He said, "I'm lucky to have a serious girlfriend named Paula. We're having fun. Going to the Olympics and lots of great things." The couple was first seen together in 2022 at the Laver Cup, then at the Australian Open in 2023, before making their red carpet debut in 2024.
