Decisions, Decisions, Decisions
Imagine you had two job offers to choose from upon graduation. First off, congratulations on getting TWO offers. But, now you have to make a choice. How would you decide on which one to accept?
The first offer comes from a facility located in your preferred location and is definitely a setting you know you would enjoy working in. The second offer comes from a facility not located in your top three preferred locations and isn’t really a setting you would like to work in. Seems like an easy choice, right? Not so fast.
The second facility has offered you a higher salary then the first facility. What do you do? Are you like a lot of Millennials who choose the higher paying job over the perfect job? On CollegeRecruiter.com, Steven Rothberg wrote a blog tittled Millennials Are Driving Me Crazy. The article talks about the trend hiring managers are seeing with Millennials and their frustration with the group.
"The hiring managers tend to fall into two groups:
- Those who are frustrated by Millennials who accept a job offer but
then quit within months to take a position that offers a bit more pay
from an employer across the street.- Those who are frustrated by Millennials who won’t accept a job
offer because the pay isn’t enough even though the opportunity is
otherwise perfect for them."
Steven mentions in his blog that the reason for salary ranking #1 over other seemingly important factors is student loan debt.
"The cost of college education has spiraled so far out of control that
this generation is faced with a necessity to make good money, where
previous generations preferred it but didn’t need it."
