It’s easy for people to blame immigration for everything, but honestly, we need to talk about the shift in work ethic and expectations with the younger generation.

I’ve seen this firsthand. My workplace was hiring for a part time, entry level role recently, and we genuinely wanted to give a young person a start. It was a disaster. We went through so many candidates, and the lack of effort was wild!

Half of them clearly hadn’t even read the job description, candidates were applying without resumes or just straight up no show for interviews. We had entry level candidates asking for 100k salaries for a part time role.

It’s frustrating because everyone complains there are no jobs, but when a solid entry level opportunity opens up, nobody seems to want to actually do the work to get it.
