<\/p>\n

A study has revealed that 8 out of 10 Latin American youths living in cities in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Uruguay and Peru would like to work at the same job for more than five years<\/h4>\n

The Forge Foundation<\/a> has conducted a survey of more than 2,000 people aged 17 to 23 in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay to establish their opinions regarding their future job opportunities<\/strong>. As part of the results, it was revealed that only 18% had any formal work experience; however, most of the time, informal experience was one of the aspects that prevailed at the time of finding their first job.<\/p>\n

Among the concerns about their future, 95% of those surveyed consider that they will be better off financially than their parents<\/strong> thanks to their greater capacity for job insertion and the better opportunities than were available to their parents more than 20 years ago. They also feel confident (64%) that they will be working and studying next year; however, having their own business does not appear as a viable option.<\/p>\n

The aspect they value most is the opportunity for growth; far above timetable flexibility, stability, work environment, and salary. The survey also found that 8 out of 10 young people want to work at the same job for more than 5 years.<\/p>\n

More training<\/h4>\n

Young people make up the largest generation in history and have a strong desire to generate positive change in society and, above all, in their families. Their views and ideals are essential aspects for the development of any society.<\/p>\n

The survey also found that almost 7 out of 10 young people consider that they receive a good education for the world of work. However, 50% of Latin American companies say they are unable to find candidates with the required skills.<\/p>\n

Organisations are often unable to fill the positions they need because the applicants lack the social-emotional skills that are considered essential for all workers nowadays if they are to have a positive impact on any given job.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
