Which Jobs Survive AI by 2030? Saadia Zahidi (WEF) Reveals What the Data Actually Shows

Saadia Zahidi, Managing Director at the World Economic Forum, joins Silicon Valley Girl live from Davos to break down the WEF Future of Jobs Report — and what it actually means for your career.

The data: 78 million new jobs are coming by 2030. But 23% of all roles will go through major disruption. And roughly 1 in 10 workers won't find a place inside their own industry.

We cover:

  • Why AI isn't the real reason entry-level jobs are disappearing — and what actually is
  • The "catch-22" problem young job seekers are stuck in right now
  • Which jobs are growing (agriculture, education) and which are declining fast
  • Why human skills — creativity, empathy, leadership — are more valuable than ever in an AI world
  • The "learn to earn" framework WEF launched at Davos to fix broken hiring
  • What no-regret career moves look like in 2025–2030, no matter which scenario plays out

If you're figuring out your next move — whether you're a student, mid-career, or building a team — this episode gives you the clearest data-backed picture of what's coming.
