Description
The Boston College Center for Work and Family researchers surveyed how young adult navigate their careers and lives. Researchers surveyed more than 1,100 men and women, aged 22-25 on a number of questions such as: How do young adults search for jobs? Is there a difference between how young women and young men perceive success? What are employers and HR departments doing that young people see as most helpful to their career success? What organizational characteristics are most likely to increase or decrease employee work-effort, retention and satisfaction?
The results of this study How Millennials Navigate Their Careers: Young Adult Views on Work, Life and Success were released in November 2015.
The presenter for this talk will be Brad Harrington, Executive Director of the Boston College Center for Work and Family, and lead author for the study.
This event is sponsored by Yale WorkLife and Child Care and the Future Leaders of Yale (FLY).
