Gen Z workers crave career stability
Summary
Younger workers, in the aftermath of the pandemic, are craving a more traditional work experience with employers who accept them for who they are.

State of play: Among recent grads, mental health support is the top career expectation, according to a new survey of 1,000 young adults from iCIMS, a talent acquisition software provider. The big picture: The upheaval that graduating college students have lived through over the past three years has changed their perspective on what they want and need. • “Stability is key for them,” Rhea Moss, director of data insights and customer intelligence at iCIMS, tells Axios.
