💨 Abstract

The article discusses a survey revealing high levels of parental involvement in Gen-Z job seekers' careers, which experts warn can be detrimental. Key findings include 54% of young job seekers having parents speak to hiring managers, 63% having parents submit job applications, and 54% having parents email managers on their behalf. Career strategist Julia Toothacre advises parents to offer guidance and networking opportunities rather than intervening directly.
