'I’d like to announce that I am officially a Target employee! And no, I am not in the corporate marketing department or anything of that sort- I am just a seasonal employee working on the floor,' she wrote:
At the beginning of her senior year of college last fall, Maia Hass’s goal of working in a marketing role at an entertainment company, like Disney DIS, +1.82%, seemed totally attainable.
Young workers disproportionately affected by the downturn Though Hass is maintaining a positive attitude, her post is an indication of the challenges young people are facing in today’s economy. Recessions are often challenging for workers with the least experience, but this economic downturn has devastated the sectors where workers ages 16 to 24 are disproportionately represented.
Those trends are different from what we often see during a downturn and what we saw during the Great Recession when soft demand from consumers meant that sectors like manufacturing and construction were most acutely affected, Gould said. “There was less of an age component” then, she said. This time, the sectors most impacted are those that have a lot of interaction with the public and those are the same industries that employ a lot of young workers, Gould said.
“I was just like I’m tired of sitting in bed all day and not doing anything, driving myself crazy and staring at LinkedIn,” she said. “I’m just going to get any job that I can to make use of myself.” Graduating college “wasn’t casual,” for her, Hass said. “the fact that I wasn’t able to celebrate it really hurt.”
