How to Attract and Retain Generation Z Accounting Talent

Welcome to the first episode of Counting on Success! In this episode, Donna and Yasmine dive in to the nuances of hiring and retaining Generation Z. Gen Z is a tech-savvy and complex group with a lot to offer. They are the future of the accounting industry and we are often asked how to attract and accommodate these new entrants to the workforce. 

In this episode we explore: 

• How the pandemic and technology have affected the way we work
• Generational differences in the workplace
• What Generation Z want and need in a job and place to work
• How accountancy practice owners can adapt to attract, retain and engage with the best Generation Z accounting candidates (this will apply to clients as well!)
• How employers can best deliver constructive feedback 
• What Gen Z can do show their commitment to progression and innovation in the workplace (hint: soft skills!)

Better understanding Gen Z can help address skills shortages and generation gaps, as well as help businesses grow. It's a dance of flexibility, communication and the management of expectations.
