A British entrepreneur describes his experience with Generation Z workers who say they are unable to even conduct an interview. James McNeil led the sales team for a company that collected music licensing from companies and often received applications from 20-somethings.
Generation Z follows Generation Y and includes those born between 1997 and 2012 and their relatives are considered the first true “digital natives” The man who now runs the car leasing company Ready2Lease describes the behavior of some representatives of this generation as a "nightmare" in an interview with the British daily The Telegraph. He gives specific examples: “We had two occasions where I hired people, one of which was not even a junior position but a senior sales position. It wasn't a top position, but it was £35,000 a year (around €41,000), company car, laptop, telephone. In both cases they simply didn't show up on the first day. They just disappeared from the face of the earth”
