Gen Z Are Getting Fired Left and Right
The reasons are obvious, yet troublesome for most companies
According to Fortune.com, Gen Zers are the worst people to hire and so far, based on reports, 6 in 10 employers are already handing them their walking papers soon after hiring the fresh out of college crowd. 1 in 6 bosses will probably never hire a recent grad again. What is going on here?
The term Gen Z refers to individuals born between 1997 and 2012, a period characterized by significant technological advancements and the emergence of social media platforms. This generation often experienced television as a primary source of entertainment. Gen Z tends to communicate less when addressed and prefers indoor activities over playing outside with friends.
Yes.
That generation.
As harsh as this may sound, this generation of college grads, are not particularly groomed for the workplace. They were able to make it through all grade levels and college, but unfortunately, the results of home life and school life, equates to a bunch of grads not worth hiring.
“Three-quarters of the companies surveyed said some or all of their recent graduate hires were unsatisfactory in some way.”
