WATCH THE REPLAY NOW!
The job market has shifted dramatically, affecting all generations in the workforce. Gen Z is entering a rapidly changing world of AI-driven hiring, disappearing entry-level roles, and shifting skill demands. At the same time, mature professionals are navigating longer job searches, evolving expectations, and pressure to stay relevant in a landscape that no longer rewards “experience alone.”
In this session, author and Gen Z career expert Ellen Raim joins author and executive career strategist Gina Riley to unpack what both generations are getting right, what’s tripping them up, and where the shared opportunities truly are. Together, they’ll explore the real pain points of today’s job search—networking, digital presence, storytelling, communication—and how cross-generational insight can accelerate success for everyone.
As the co-author of Play the Game: Insider Strategies to Thrive in Your Early Career Without Compromising Ambition, Values, or Wellbeing, Ellen equips young professionals with the insider knowledge they need to navigate real-world workplaces
You’ll walk away with:
- Practical ways Gen Z and mature professionals can support each other
- Clear guidance on navigating the hidden job market
- Strategies to communicate value with confidence
Whether you’re job seeking, mentoring someone who is, or supporting your own Gen Z young adult, this conversation will give you a sharper understanding of how to move with the market—not against it.
