Currently, Generation Z is one of the youngest employee generations. With 61 million potential new employees, this generation accounts for probably 36% of the working population worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n In terms of personal values and life perspectives, there has been a huge shift from past employee generations to Generation Z. Many of these young employees are seeking security and flexibility at the same time. They are often more purpose driven and mostly search online for new opportunities. These circumstances can turn into a challenge for recruiting young talents and underline once more the importance of understanding Generation Z.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” text_line_height=”1.89em” header_2_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_2_text_color=”gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154″ header_3_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_3_text_color=”gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962″ header_3_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962%22:%91%22header_3_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n One thing we know for sure: Generation Z grew up with technology, while the use of technology has drastically increased. In consequence, Generation Z majorly uses online portals and search engines to look for new job opportunities. Most of the time, they use their smartphone for the search, while their families and friends also have a huge impact on their preferences for companies and jobs. Hence, to approach Generation Z, it is more important than ever before, to be present on many (online) channels and offer incentives for recommending friends to employers.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” text_line_height=”1.89em” header_2_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_2_text_color=”gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154″ header_3_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_3_text_color=”gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962″ header_3_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962%22:%91%22header_3_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n A major difference between Generation Z and past generations is that Generation Z is often much more idealistic.

Most beneficial is a short, clear, structured online form, which can be filled out easily. It also should include an option to upload documents quickly. Moreover, the whole application process should be as transparent as possible. For example, applicants should receive feedback regularly and quickly regarding the status of their application to avoid frustration.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” text_line_height=”1.89em” header_2_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_2_text_color=”gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154″ header_3_font=”montserrat-variablefont_wght||||||||” header_3_text_color=”gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962″ header_3_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-f7ac8586-8e78-4ff7-ba3b-b014d456e962%22:%91%22header_3_text_color%22%93,%22gcid-2784e1ce-2768-4fd5-82f8-c8810b7e6154%22:%91%22header_2_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n Values such as health and family have experienced a huge comeback, especially since the Covid pandemic, and indicate the need for stability, which has become stronger in these turbulent times.
