RippleMatch helps employers build diverse teams and hire the right students virtually. With more than 500,000 student users from over 1200 colleges, RippleMatch is uniquely positioned to collect data on what Generation Z values in the workplace, and how those values have shifted with the changing economic and political landscape. Since Generation Z first entered the workforce in 2018, RippleMatch has routinely published novel data on their career values and motivations. Now, amidst a public health crisis and a renewed focus on racial justice following months of protests, RippleMatch set out to uncover how today' Gen Z college students are approaching their job search. Surveying more than 1,000 juniors and seniors across 235 schools, these are the top themes that emerged from the data: Students aren't bought in to the idea of a remote-only future.
