In an interview on how companies are attracting millennial talent, optimising their potential and keeping them productive for the long haul, SMU’s Director of the Dato’ Kho Hui Meng Career Centre Sim Cher Young said that while most millennials are sure of what they want to do, some of them face strong parental objections. “This is why you find some graduates job-hopping within the first few years. You also have some outliers who want to switch to a different career entirely.” As Mr Sim sees it, the current employment market also facilitates job-hopping.
