An HR Recruiter's Perspective on Hiring Gen Y

[mclay327]

Another trait of Gen Y, that was not mentioned here, is manners. My manners helped me land my dream job. As crazy as it sounds, I heard some of my competition had a hard time during the lunch interview. I guess my mother’s constant nagging about how to eat soup, what fork to use, and not letting me eat in front of the tv finally paid off!

There are countless articles about how Gen Y are slackers, but this guy gets it. We are collaborative, tech savvy, and love to learn. Glad to see this recruiter understands why the Gen Y workforce is critical in today's global economy.

Some insightful and very pragmatic thoughts. He's obviously someone who's worked with this group. Very well done.
