Given the less than flattering perception of millennials, it is no wonder that some employers shun hiring this group of young workers. But is there really nothing that the millennial generation can bring to the table in your company?<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, there are some advantages that millennials have over Gen X and the baby boomers. As the generation that grew up in the digital age, millennials are early adopters who keep up with the latest tech trends and can recommend tools and technologies that can help make your business more efficient and accessible to the increasingly tech-savvy consumer. While the job-hopping culture among millennials is often criticised, the fact that these young workers constantly striving for better is a trait to leverage on, especially if you land a millennial who is the right fit for your company.<\/p>\n<p>Here, we offer you five top tips for hiring and retaining millennials in your company.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Design_your_companys_roles_around_what_makes_millennials_tick\"><\/span>1. Design your company\u2019s roles around what makes millennials tick<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It is commonly understood that compared to Gen X and the baby boomers, millennials have different expectations regarding how they want to build their career and interact with their employers. Millennials conceive of their roles as stepping stones and growth opportunities, and thus tend to prioritise opportunities to learn, grow and advance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7636 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/graph.png\" alt=\"what generations look for when applying-millennials\" width=\"597\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/graph.png 597w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/graph-300x166.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 597px\" \/><strong>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2016\/05\/what-millennials-want-from-a-new-job\">Harvard Business Review<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to recruiters in Singapore, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.channelnewsasia.com\/news\/singapore\/millennials-in-the\/2938086.html\">other key priority areas<\/a> for millennials are job flexibility, company culture, and having a sense of mission. Millennials are just as driven by the <em>why<\/em> as they are about the <em>what<\/em>. In order to motivate, inspire and engage your young employees, it is crucial that you clearly define and articulate your business\u2019 mission, as it is one of the things from which your employees draw a sense of purpose. Given the emphasis placed on finding meaning in work, implementing a corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme can also demonstrate that you care about how your business situates itself within the community, and make your company more attractive to millennials.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Allow_for_flexibility_in_the_workplace\"><\/span>2. Allow for flexibility in the workplace<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwc.com\/gx\/en\/hr-management-services\/publications\/assets\/pwc-nextgen.pdf\">study by PwC<\/a> which surveyed 44,000 Millennials and non-Millennials in 18 territories globally, employees want more flexible. If they were able to make their current job more flexible, 64% of Millennials would like to occasionally work from home, and 66% of Millennials would like to shift their work hours. Across the board, 15% of male employees and 21% of female employees say they would give up some of their pay and slow the pace of promotion in exchange for working fewer hours.<\/p>\n<p>Millennials measure productivity based on the output of the work performed, rather than the number of hours spent in the office. They view work as a \u201cthing\u201d and not a \u201cplace\u201d. Where you choose to put in place flexible working arrangements, ensure that you properly set out your organisation\u2019s approach to flexible working in a <a href=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/flexible-working-policy\/\">Flexible Working Policy<\/a>. This should be used in conjunction with a <a href=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/flexible-working-request\/\">Flexible Working Request<\/a>, which is a form that your employees can use to request flexible working arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>In order to manage your team while accommodating varying work schedules, an option is to leverage tech solutions for managing flexible teams:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/boltonremote.com\/\">BoltonRemote<\/a> helps companies find full-time offshore talent by helping B2B technology and Internet companies turn their business processes into managed, scalable offshore functions and providing a solution that includes proactive staff retention practices, a fully-serviced office and competitive HR benefits.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hreasily.com\/\">HReasily<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talenox.com\/\">Talenox<\/a> are HR solutions providers that help small businesses improve productivity by streamlining HR work processes (e.g. payroll processing, staff management system, absence management software).

It all starts with putting your new hire through a <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1D5w4iCRJWcdB8sDZtkUNPH9KlcZ3SJpSsj2XOI34SSA\/edit\">proper onboarding process<\/a>, in order to integrate your employee into your company\u2019s work culture and connect him with colleagues he can seek mentorship and advice from.<\/p>\n<p>In order to make your organization an attractive prospect in the long run, it is crucial to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/business-functions\/organization\/our-insights\/millennials-burden-blessing-or-both\">foster a culture of mentorship<\/a> as young people thrive on collaborative work and support from colleagues. This means assigning a more experienced employee to your new hire from the get-go, and having regular check-ins to ensure your employee is on track with his learning objectives. Young employees are also more likely to expect to hear from top management, so it would be good to develop avenues that provide access to your company\u2019s leadership, such as microfeedback platforms to ask questions on specific topics and engage on follow-up feedback. Making communication two-way and real-time will ensure that you constantly keep your young hires engaged.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some quick tips for how you can create a culture of mentorship and opportunities for growth within your organization.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li>Offer career security.

Satisfy their appetite for new opportunities without them having to go elsewhere.<strong> Highlight the value of progression and not just promotion to build a portfolio of skills and experiences.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Have regular career conversations. <\/strong>Check in with Millennials regularly about their career path and development. <strong>Rather than annual reviews, focus on near term objectives and implement plans to achieve them. <\/strong>Use these conversations to connect how their work today will enhance their career prospects and longer term employability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Appreciate your Millennials. <\/strong>Maintain a high-touch approach and offer frequent, face-to-face feedback, and yes, affirmation. <strong>Find new channels that encourage recognition and sharing from managers and peers.<\/strong> It doesn\u2019t cost anything and is an effective way to engage people in their roles.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.manpower.com.sg\/RI\/MillennialCareers2020Vision.pdf\">ManpowerGroup<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Incentivise_your_new_hires_with_more_than_just_dollars_cents\"><\/span>4.

This is beneficial for small businesses which often do not compete on salary, and the perks and benefits that Millennials want can be inexpensive.<\/p>\n<p>There are five key types of perks that can keep your employees engaged:-<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Pampering Perks<\/strong>. This group of perks entices employees through the promise of indulgence. Think weekly ice cream runs, napping rooms and paid gym memberships.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Community Perks<\/strong>. While pampering perks are material, community perks encourage young workers to participate in group activities and helps build community. Ideas include organised volunteer efforts for the team, regular potlucks, and department retreats.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lifestyle Perks<\/strong>. Learn to accommodate the lifestyle of a young professional seeking work-life balance through policies such as telecommuting, a casual dress code, or a paid day off on birthdays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Convenience Perks &amp; Special Deals<\/strong>. These are perks that take some day-to-day stress off your employees. This include specially organised discounts at local businesses, personal use of tablets and phones, and providing mobile phone stipends.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Culture Perks<\/strong>.
