Learning Speed Beats Experience in Jobs, Says Prashant Kirad

Learning Speed Beats Experience in Jobs, Says Prashant Kirad

Imagine a game where the rules keep changing all the time.

A player who has been playing for ten years might know the old rules very well.

But a new player who learns the new rules quickly could win the game.

Prashant Kirad says this is what is happening with jobs today.

In the last three years, many new kinds of jobs were created that did not exist before.

Some skills that used to take years to learn can now be done by computers or machines.

That means even people with lots of experience have to learn new things.

Young people who spend just six months learning a new skill can compete with experienced workers.

Kirad believes that finishing learning fast is more important than having years of experience.
