Q: A survey of teenagers found that this is the most important factor when considering their careers. What is it?
A: Feel good about what you do and then happiness
Teenagers said ‘to feel good about what you do’ was the most important thing about any future job, up one place since 2024. ‘Happiness’ was second, down one spot from last year, while ‘money’ ranked third.’
The majority (57%) of young people surveyed said they would not be willing to pursue a job that they did not enjoy even if it was well paid.
When asked what would make them want to work somewhere the most, ‘opportunities for training and development’ was the most popular answer (29%), a 3% increase since last year. Having the best salary offer came in second, with flexible working hours in third.
