## Summary

Adzuna reports that UK entry-level job postings mentioning AI have risen about threefold since early 2025. Indeed adds that one in six vacancies in AI-exposed fields now mentions AI, up twofold year over year. The figures come from the two job platforms' own data and were reported by Bloomberg's Irina Anghel.

The trend signals that AI skills are becoming a baseline expectation for new graduates and early-career applicants across a widening range of sectors. Neither Adzuna nor Indeed released the raw counts behind the multiples, and the time windows differ: Adzuna measures from early 2025, while Indeed compares year over year.

## Key points

- Adzuna: UK entry-level postings mentioning AI up ~3x since early 2025
- Indeed: 1 in 6 vacancies in AI-exposed fields mentions AI, up 2x YoY
- Data from two job platforms reported by Bloomberg's Irina Anghel

## Why it matters

AI literacy is shifting from a niche advantage to a baseline hiring filter for early-career roles across the UK labour market.
