What is gen
y?
Gen y is the
generation of people born during the 1980s and early 1990s. The name is based
on Generation X, the generation that preceded them.
Members of
Generation Y are often referred to as “echo boomers” because they are the
children of parents born during the baby boom (the “baby boomers”). Because
children born during this time period have had constant access to technology
(computers, cell phones) in their youth, they have required many employers to
update their hiring strategy in order to incorporate updated forms of
technology. Also called millennials, echo boomers, internet generation, iGen,
