Pivots Without Pathways: Career Navigation in a Fragmented Labor Market

The Project on Workforce’s new report, Pivots Without Pathways: Career Navigation in a Fragmented Labor Market, examines how workers and learners navigate career decisions and uncertainty in a fast-changing economy. Drawing on a two-year mixed-method study, it shows that economic mobility increasingly depends not just on skills and credentials, but also on access to trusted guidance to help interpret information, connect to networks, and make complex decisions. At a time when career paths are less linear and AI is reshaping work, this report offers a set of urgent actions to strengthen career navigation infrastructure.
