An Empirical Analysis and Evaluation of Millennials’ Career Choices

ABSTRACT:- In today’s era where everything can provide a sense of entitlement and empowerment, the next generation of professionals – aptly called “Millennials” having born within the onset of this millennium, expects nothing short of a drastic and impactful method of decision-making. From relationships, common purchases and even on career choices, this holds true. This generation is always on the move and will always make critical life changing decisions as if they are just eating a slice of cake.

This prompted the researcher to conduct a three-month study of whether this mindset and mental approach will really help them find a good job that matches their collegiate degrees, as well as the level of satisfaction for those respondents who are already at the industry.

Significant results revealed that those who are fresh college graduates will always carry a positive mindset about the type of profession that they will pursue, based on their Collegiate degree. But this battle cry that they say, “Trust the Process” does always hold true. As it is only at times mere lip service. Although, it can motivate those who are already working, since they have already the disposition and relative level of tenure. But for the fresh graduate level, the proper matching of degrees and job vacancies, as expected, matters. As cliché as it sounds, but in reality based on the findings, the respondent just applies without much deep thinking. Thus, their rate of interviews and actual offers drastically drop.

Ergo, it is important for them to be more focused and meticulous about their career choices in order for them to grow as professional.
