Where do Gen Z look for jobs? First, we must understand that Gen Z are tech natives—they don’t know a life without a screen in their hands.
This generation is changing the way the rest of the world communicates, and it’s up to us to understand their needs when attracting them for open job positions.
Who are they? How do they operate? How can we understand them so that we can deliver the processes and tools they need, in ways that they expect to work with technology?
GEN Z EXPECTATIONS
When it comes to communicating with Gen Z, they expect mobile, visual, fast, and easy.
Let’s be honest. Indeed and ZipRecruiter are not the hottest ways to find a job when you’re 19. Driving around the block asking face-to-face for open positions is simply not in the wheelhouse for this group either. A job listing on your website? They probably don’t even know to look at your website.
So when teens and young adults want to find their first or second job, where do they turn?
Nobody really knew the answer, until now.
