Boomers vs Gen Z: why does it feel like older workers are getting hired while younger candidates are being left behind? The job market isn’t what it used to be.
In this episode of Work Hotline, Sho Dewan breaks down one of the biggest shifts happening in today’s workforce: companies are hiring older, more experienced workers at record levels while entry-level opportunities continue to shrink.
But this isn’t actually a story about Boomers versus Gen Z. It’s a story about a labor market that’s become more cautious.
Plus, Sho responds to real callers navigating today’s difficult job market—from a recent graduate struggling to land their first role to a professional who returned to work after retirement.
Whether you’re just starting your career or wondering why the hiring landscape feels so different, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening behind the scenes.
