Working Millennials

Lately, I’ve seen countless over-the-top generalizations about millennials (aka, Generation Y—those born between the early 1980s and early 2000s, give or take a few). Either we’re entitled, lazy workers who can’t complete tasks on our own or we’re engaged activists who use their creative, technology-driven thinking to get things done. For me? Definitely the latter group. However you see them (or yourselves!) this group cannot be dismissed.

Since our focus at CEWD is employment services, we can’t ignore how workplace demographics are changing:

and people on both sides (hiring professionals and eager workers alike) need to update our thinking:

Thoughts? Everyone is voicing their opinions…it’s time to hear yours.
