derek12+FollowGen Z Isn’t Job-Hopping—They’re Life-HackingForget the old-school climb-the-ladder game—Gen Z is all about using jobs as stepping stones, not life sentences.

They’re picking gigs that give them flexibility, purpose, and time for what matters (think: health, friends, and being true to themselves). The real drama? Companies stuck in the past risk losing out if they don’t offer flexibility and real talk. Want to keep Gen Z around? Ditch the old rules and get real about what you stand for. #Business #GenZWork #CareerHacks11Share

Sometimes, the best career move is just showing up and saying yes! #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #CareerHacks20Share
Linda Price+FollowIs College Still Worth It for Gen Z Guys?So, here’s the tea: Gen Z guys with college degrees are just as likely to be job-hunting as those who skipped college altogether. The old promise that a degree equals a good job? Not so much anymore. With more companies dropping degree requirements, a lot of young men are trading in the office grind for skilled trades—think mechanics or electricians—which can actually pay really well. Maybe it’s time to rethink the whole college-or-bust mindset! #Business #GenZWork #CareerHacks00Share

So, if you want to beat the AI layoffs, learning to code might be your best money move! #CareerHacks #GenZJobs #LearnToCode #Business30Share
