Five of American Structurepoint’s best young professionals share what they value most about their careers and provide tips about how to recruit and retain top young talent.
Young professionals are becoming more crucial to fueling the nation’s workforce engine as millions of Baby Boomers retire earlier than previous generations. Young professionals between the ages of 20 and 35 comprise 30% of the US workforce. This equates to more than 28 million people. About 1.5 million of them, or 5.5%, work in the architecture and engineering industries.
The American Structurepoint panelists share these insights in our podcast:
- Young professionals want to be engaged and feel valued at work.
- Young professionals are looking for challenges and a career that grows with them.
- Supportive managers, strong mentorship, and work-life balance are most important in terms of retaining young professionals at a company.
