Научный альманах «Тренд». Второй выпуск. Александра Александровна Егурнова

      Nowadays the problem of finding a dream job is widespread among university undergraduates. Students want to be a part of a perfect, successful company, which will meet their preferences. Quite often the prestige of a company is not the only thing that makes an organization so desirable for an employee.

      In order to find out more information about the benefits, which attract young people in workplaces, we have conducted a sociological poll aimed at crucial factors in deciding what future job to choose.

      To be frank, we were shocked by the results of our survey. We believed that the millennial generation would be prone to some aspects connected with beneficial social conditions. However, our expectations were not fulfilled.

      The main priorities for modern students are sufficient remuneration (42%) and career advancement (31%). Definitely, promotion opportunities are very important for career and an employee’s reputation depends on their position / rank in the company. However, we suppose that these options are unattainable without having any social aspects at the beginning of a person’s work for the firm.

      We were also startled by the low percentage of preference for such factors as good working conditions and perks (9% each), work-life balance (6%), and having job-related high-level training (4%).
