Most employers are already very familiar with Millennials, but soon Generation Z will represent a large portion of the workforce. Understanding this new generation's traits and preferences will help you to create a culture that plays to their strengths and makes your company an attractive option for job seekers. 1. Preference for traditional communication. Even though Generation Z grew up with texting and instant messages, studies show that they prefer to speak face-to-face in the workplace. This could be because they find the nuances of written communication difficult to interpret and would rather have the reassurance that comes with personal interaction. 2. Desire to work individually. Team environments are not a problem for Gen Z, but many young employees prefer to work on individual projects as much as possible. By working independently, Gen Zers are able to showcase their skills and abilities as a way to prove themselves to employers. 3. Mobile-first habits. Generation Z is used to smartphones and relies heavily on productivity apps in the workplace. Not only that, but the development of voice command technologies has made the smartphone an indispensable work aid for Gen Z. Employers who are aware of this should use apps that work best on mobile devices. 4. Motivated by stability. Because Gen Z grew up in a time of serious economic recession, they are more risk-averse than Millennials. Thus, they value the stability that comes from having a predictable job with a clearly defined compensation package. 5. Naturally competitive. Generation Z is used to competition and enjoys the challenge of putting themselves to the test against someone else. If you can encourage a healthy sense of competition in your workplace, particularly during the training stage, you can keep young employees motivated and help them to do their best work #recruitment #recruiters #hiring #mnchiring .#interviewtips #applynow #careergoals #employers #employer #careerdevelopment #jobinterview #recruitmentagency #jobsearching #recruiterlife #recruitment #jobs #hiring #jobsearch #recruiting #job #career #hr #employment #careers #business #recruiter #work #humanresources #nowhiring #jobseekers #recruitmentagency #resume #hiringnow #jobseeker #vacancy #staffing #jobsearching #jobhunt #jobvacancy #interview #jobopportunity #jobinterview #training #jobopening
