Скачать или смотреть Why Gen-Z in America Is Ditching Tech for Trades

The American workforce is undergoing one of the biggest shifts in decades — and this video breaks down exactly why millions of young people are abandoning white-collar careers and turning toward blue-collar skilled trades. As AI reshapes the job market and automation replaces cognitive office tasks, trades like plumbing, electrical work, HVAC, welding, and construction are emerging as some of the most stable, best-paid, and future-proof careers in the country.

Today, 37% of Gen Z say they want blue-collar careers, only 22% of U.S. adults believe college was worth the cost, and AI is transforming once-secure office jobs into high-risk positions. Meanwhile, from electricians earning $62,350 to plumbers making $62,970, these careers now out-earn many entry-level office roles, and the U.S. is facing a nationwide skilled labor shortage — setting the stage for a massive blue-collar renaissance.
