4 Ways Millennials Want to Improve Their Careers -- and How to Pull Them Off
We all want to further our careers, and millennials are no exception. But what does that actually mean? A recent survey by Olivet Nazarene University revealed the following four points that younger workers are hoping to improve upon. If you feel the same, a little effort could be your ticket to meeting your goals.
For 87% of millennials, the primary objective on the career improvement front is to earn more money. If you have a similar goal, don't hesitate to ask for a raise. But also, approach that conversation strategically. Dig up salary data for your industry so you have a baseline to work with. List the ways you add value to your company so you're not grasping at straws during that discussion. And, if possible, attach numbers to your accomplishments. For example, if your individual efforts increased company sales by 8% last quarter, put that specific number in front of your boss.
