More companies are looking to hire older workers for job openings, as opposed to hiring people in Gen Z.
An online student life magazine talked with 800 corporations about the people that they're seeing coming through their doors for new jobs.
Over half of the human resources managers say two-thirds of Gen Z (born between 1997 and 2012) applicants think they're too entitled.
They also say Gen Z'ers don't make eye contact with them in the job interview. Half also wanted to be paid much more than the job description.
They also say around half showed up in inappropriate business clothes. And in a shocking statistic, 20% brought their parents with them.
When companies look to hire older workers, 60% say they'll offer up more benefits to them, and almost the same percentage say they'll pay more for older, more experienced workers.
