Millennials are a curious bunch. They\u2019re different from past generations in important ways, especially when it comes to the job market. For starters, they don\u2019t seem to be as interested in making money. Sounds strange, but most would rather have opportunities for development rather than a few extra pounds in their account at the end of the month. They\u2019re also more interested in things like purpose and on-the-job satisfaction than previous generations, and more likely to look elsewhere if they don\u2019t find them.<\/p>\n

Millennials Reveal All About What They Want From An Employer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Baby boomers didn\u2019t view their work in the same way. If their jobs didn\u2019t provide satisfaction, then they would console themselves with the fact that they provided an income. But because they have such different expectations of the world, baby boomers – who make many of the hiring decisions<\/a> in today\u2019s economy – can get Millennials totally wrong. Here\u2019s what millennials want from a job.<\/p>\n

They Want Social Impact<\/h2>\n

The majority of Millennials are progressive. They\u2019ve been raised in an education system that promotes social values above all else, and it\u2019s rubbed off on them. Even the most business-minded Millennials want to know that the companies they work for are doing the rest of society good. According to Capital Group, more than 82 per cent of Millennials say that they think that it is crucial for companies to look after the wellness of their customers and employees. They also believe that companies should invest in \u201cethical\u201d stocks; not big tobacco or the oil and gas industry.<\/p>\n

They Want Family Life To Take Precedence<\/h2>\n

For Millennials, work and family life are not equal things that they try to balance with each other: family life is more important. That\u2019s why so many recruitment websites<\/a> now advertise \u201cflexible working\u201d arrangement, whereby Millennials can adjust their timetables around their spouse\u2019s and children\u2019s lives. Millennials view raising a family as a success just as much as making a lot of money.<\/p>\n

They Want To Invest In Their Retirement<\/h2>\n

Millennials don\u2019t want to work. According to data from Forbes, only one in ten millennials would stay in their current working circumstances if they had enough money to give up work permanently.<\/p>\n

Why do millennials care so much about retirement? Part of the answer originates from the 2008 financial crisis<\/a> and recession. Millennials, many of whom were in entry-level jobs at the time, suffered badly, and are only now working their way back up the income ladder. The catastrophe forced many to think carefully about their futures and consider ways of smoothing their income further down the line, including retirement.<\/p>\n

They Want Employers To Share Their Values<\/h2>\n

Previous generations saw a job as a means to an end. But idealism and progressive ideology have made millennials morally fussy. They want their employers to share the same values as them.<\/p>\n

As discussed, millennials\u2019 circumstances<\/a> have changed a great deal over the last ten years. No longer are they broke college grads living at their parents\u2019 houses but rather heads of young families with different needs. They want their employers to focus more on facilitating family life and helping them clear their debts.<\/p>\n
