  • How to Break into the Workforce in an AI-Driven Job Market

    How to Break into the Workforce in an AI-Driven Job Market
    Apr 14 2026

    Matthew Bidwell, Professor of Management at the Wharton School, explores how the job search process is evolving for today’s graduates and what it takes to break into the

    workforce. As hiring has slowed across traditional pipelines like consulting and tech, the path to a first role has become more competitive and fragmented.


    In this episode, Bidwell explains how AI is transforming applications, making it easier to apply at scale while increasing competition, and shares how candidates can still stand out by leveraging networking, personal connections, and targeted outreach.


    The conversation also highlights the importance of internships and viewing early careers as a period of exploration, where individuals build skills and refine their long-term direction.

  • Rethinking Tax Refunds and Financial Decision Making

    Rethinking Tax Refunds and Financial Decision Making
    Mar 31 2026
    Wendy De La Rosa, Assistant Professor of Marketing at the Wharton School, explores how people think about tax refunds and why those decisions often don’t align with their financial goals. She explains why many treat refunds as “extra money,” leading to overspending and missed opportunities to save or pay down debt. The conversation also highlights inefficiencies in the tax system, where 20 to 30 percent of refunded dollars are lost to preparation costs, and shares practical strategies like pre-commitment and automation to improve financial outcomes.
