Why are Gen Z youth facing difficulties in getting jobs?

Generation Z: Today's youth, especially Generation Z who were born in the late 1990s and early 2000s, are struggling to find jobs. A recent survey has revealed that many major companies are shying away from hiring these youth. But what is the reason behind this? This question is very important for today's youth.

A survey conducted by Intelligent.com has revealed that 6 out of 10 recruiters said that they fired many college pass youth this year. Companies say that these youth lack in their way of working, communication skills and professionalism. This explains why companies are hesitant to recruit them.

From college to office: A big change

Hu Nguyen, who is the chief consultant of this survey, says that new graduates are having difficulty adjusting to the workplace environment. The college environment and office environment are completely different. The youth have not been prepared for the responsibilities and environment of the office.

Lack of Motivation: A Big Issue

In fact, a survey has also revealed that about 75% of the companies did not find the work of the youth who recently graduated from college satisfactory. A lack of motivation has been observed in the youth and 46% of the recruiters said that they lack professionalism. This makes it clear that the youth are not only eager to work in a job, but also not eager to advance their career.

Is it the fault of the education system?

Experts also hold the education system responsible for this situation. HR consultant Brian Driscoll said that today's education emphasizes more on theory rather than practical knowledge. Instead of studying subjects like Greek mythology, it is better to introduce the youth to the realities of the workplace.

future prospects

This survey indicates that some changes are needed for the youth of Generation Z to perform better in the workplace. Companies should also believe in the capabilities of the youth and guide them in the right direction. If this happens, then in the future these youth will not only succeed in their jobs but can also take their entire generation to new heights.

It is no longer easy for the youth of Generation Z to get a job. If companies have expectations from these youth, then they will first have to help them develop their skills and professionalism. Only then will we be able to see these youth achieve success in their careers.
