With graduation season in full swing, employers are poised to welcome into the workplace the next crop of newly minted graduates. Given that these Gen Z workers are projected to comprise 30% of the United States workforce by 2030, savvy companies and organizations would be wise to pay attention to what this generation wants from work.
Fortunately for employers, Gen Z job candidates tend to be forthcoming about what they’re seeking. “Companies are seeing a more empowered generation of graduates,” says Estrella Serrato, a college and postgraduate coach and host of Cafecito con Estrellita, a podcast focused on first-generation graduates. “New grads are showing up with questions about company values, social impact, and how mental health is supported in the workplace.”
New grads are also prioritizing their career goals. “Younger job candidates, especially Gen Z, are looking for more than just a paycheck,” says Serrato. In addition to work-life balance, she says, these employees want “purpose-driven work” and “growth opportunities they can actually see and experience.”
