237: Trending Topics - Hiring Gen Z in 2026 ft. Amarbir Sihota

Ah, a look ahead — and through the generational gap. 

In this episode, Sam sits down with Amarbir to explore the evolving expectations of Gen Z in the workforce as we look ahead to 2026 (because it'll be here before you know it).

They discuss:

  • The importance of transparency in compensation
  • The significance of work-life balance, and
  • The need for meaningful career progression 

At the end of the day, the conversation emphasizes how important it is to understand the unique values and preferences of Gen Z candidates in order to effectively connect them with the right job opportunities. But more than that? It's a reminder of the fact that, those each generation may have their own special interests or desires — we're really not that different.
