There are an estimated 1.8 billion adolescents and young people aged 10 to 24, making up the largest generation of young people in history. And young people aged 15 to 24 represent 34% of the global working population in 2022.

Generation Z, loosely defined as people born between the mid-to-late 1990s and early 2010s, is the latest generation to enter the workforce.

A survey by Resume Builder, a resources website for job seekers, found that about three in four managers believe Gen Z is the most difficult generation to work with.

“Generations were better prepared for the workforce than they are today,” said Stacie Haller, Resume Builder's chief career advisor, in an interview with CNBC.

Noting that Gen Z employees have had to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic and remote working, she added: “[Gen Z] hasn't even had the opportunity to build relationships with people in their workplace. They were thrown into an environment where people who had that experience are still struggling.

Ziad Ahmed, founder of JUV Consulting, a digital marketing agency staffed entirely by Gen Z employees, told CNBC that managing young people is also a challenge for him.

“A new employee has no criteria for comparison, whatever their generation,” said the 24-year-old.
