TikTok allows young people under 30 to share their experiences on the job market. Thousands of views on videos on the resignations of young employees have thousands of views.
Designers specialize in this niche... and in life afterward, between self-entrepreneurship and the search for a new job. Faced with this situation, which could seem difficult, social networks serve as an outlet. And Laura's journey, like others, gives a certain legitimacy to advise young people who are sometimes disoriented by the job market. The TikTok app is free to download and is available in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Japanese.

Creators specialize in this type of content: Laurène Levy deciphers political, social, and economic news from work. "No more generation of 40 years in the same metro company, work-sleep, we want to be happy," says one user. The resignation is now an act of resistance; it is almost a political gesture, says Thomas Simon, professor at Montpellier Business School and author of a thesis on the disillusionment of young people in business. The change in focus is particularly palpable on social networks, often the first witnesses of systemic upheavals. The rise of Gen Z is a sign of the changing role of women in the workplace in France, according to a study by the French Academy of Social Sciences and the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ASCE). The study found that women in their 20s and 30s are more likely to leave their jobs than men in their 40s.
