these entry jobs as 'Here's how it can
help you in the future.' And that's for
Millennials, too. It's especially true
in the smaller communities where
it is even tougher to find workers.
Companies now have to have value
propositions to employees. That is the
market we are in."
Gen Z has come into the workforce
carrying several known characteristics
and stereotypes. Prossack says
many are either unfounded or can
be nurtured as an asset. "One of
their absolute best qualities is their
