#remote work

A new LSE working paper used 243M hire records to argue remote work — not AI — caused the entry-level hiring collapse. We tested the prediction in today's US tech job postings, role by role. Every Bonferroni-significant broken ladder is in an AI-light role.

A new NY Fed study argues remote work, not AI, drives most of the post-pandemic rise in youth unemployment. 50,757 US tech postings show the matching supply-side fingerprint: % postings allowing remote rises monotonically from 24.6% at intern to 62.3% at staff, and the gradient holds inside every tech role.
