How can young people prepare for work when technology, qualifications and employers’ expectations keep changing?
Chris Adams speaks with Maria Vitoratos, founder of MV Careers and the MV Careers Virtual Hub, about building a career strategy before education and employment decisions become urgent. Maria draws on her work in education and career development, alongside doctoral research into youth career services and employment.
The conversation examines what parents can do beyond asking children what they want to be, how families can evaluate education by its intended outcomes, and why employers should help develop future talent. Maria also discusses critical thinking, entrepreneurial skills and the importance of human relevance in a workplace shaped by AI.
