Class of 2030: the hiring decline may start before you graduate

Translation orders have already shifted to AI first drafts, and voice AI now handles conversation practice and corrections, so entry-level language instructor jobs are already shrinking. Teaching is backed by staffing quotas but hires very few, so it is not the main path.

Major lifespan is the time left until AI is expected to start shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates. It doesn’t mean the major will disappear or that everyone will lose their job.
