Becoming an employer of choice for Generation X: the elements of the deal

Article Abstract:

Generation X refers to people born between 1064 and 1981. They have been brought up in the computer age and are familiar with it. Generation X people tend to have the same approach to work as their employers because they are flexible and work well in teams. They insist on rewarding work and the chance to continue updating their skills so they can take these to a new job. They want credit for good work, responsibility and the chance to make decisions rather than huge salaries. They also value their personal lives. Employers who want to attract these people have to be aware of this.

Welcome to the future: the millennial generation

Article Abstract:

Career centers should adjust to the new millennium generation by changing the tactics they employed in advising the post-baby boom generation. In an attempt to adjust to the cultural independence of the post-baby boom generation, who grew up alone, career centers have successfully used authoritative advising techniques and new technologies. But with the coming of the millennials, who are the complete reversal of the previous generation since they are fully supported by their parents, career centers are faced with a new challenge.
