Gen Z: "I'm not entitled to anything anyway" - even tomorrow's elite are worried about their future
At the Frankfurt School, high potentials are on the verge of entering the workforce. The world should be open to them. Or do old promises no longer apply, even to the most privileged?
Louisa Tröger, a 24-year-old student at the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, is struggling to find a job despite her excellent education. She, like many young people in Germany, is feeling frustrated and uncertain about her future. A recent study found that one in five 14- to 29-year-olds in Germany is considering moving abroad, with 41% able to imagine living outside of the country.
Tröger believes that if young people weren't worried about not getting a job, they wouldn't be investing so much money in their education. The job market is highly competitive, with a significant decrease in entry-level positions, and even high-potential students like Tröger are finding it difficult to secure a job or internship.
