00:04Oh, what's interesting about this is what they're doing in job interviews.
00:08According to research, nearly half of Gen Z applicants for jobs, right, rely on their
00:13parents to help writing resumes.
00:15Don't think that's the worst thing ever.
00:17No, to help out because they've got experience, obviously.
00:20While about 21% have had a parent join them in a job interview.
00:26What?
00:27Can you imagine, Lana?
00:28No.
00:28Back in the day.
00:29Taking your dad with you to Hooters.
00:31Oh, my God.
00:33And saying, this is why my daughter would be a great waitress here at Hooters.
00:40Oh, my God.
00:42Oh, that's awesome.
00:44But for real, some employers say the trend makes young candidates appear unprepared, obviously,
00:51or overly dependent.
00:53Job seekers should handle interviews and applications themselves.
00:57Duh.
00:58Wow.
00:59One in five Gen Zers.
01:01And by the way, another one was saying that they had their parents actually contact their
01:06potential employer as well.
01:07So they're calling on your behalf.
01:09Like, oh, by the way, my son just or my daughter just applied for a job here.
01:13Just want to let you know they're very dependable and this and that.
01:16It's like, what are you doing?
01:18Get out of the process.
01:20Yeah.
