• A millennial who had spent the past several years in a management position noticed something disturbing while they were hiring for multiple new entry-level positions at their company. They had been hoping that they could hire a few younger people in these roles.

  When they began to interview these young, teenage applicants, they were surprised by some of the things that they seemed to find difficult. They noted struggles to log into a computer or read an analog clock. They were also worried by their inability to be able to follow certain instructions and communicate in a way that helped them to resolve issues.
