Millennials (千禧世代) are taking telecommuting (远距离工作) to a whole new level. They view virtual foreign work experience as having equal career value to a true overseas working, a new report reveals. As a result, many are passing up foreign assignments that, in a global economy, could help them advance more quickly.
International experience ranks dead last among 15 factors that make a job attractive, according to Millennial Compass, a study of work-life attitudes by MSL Group. This would seem to come as a shock to an entire industry that has sprung up to facilitate overseas internships (实习) and work experience, as well as to global corporations that need boots on the ground in many different cultures. Still, while the younger generation of workers may prefer their iPad to a suitcase, don’t call them alienated.
Millennials say they are missing out on nothing. They believe they are gaining international experience through social media, personal networks and technology. Growing up in a world where the Internet has erased geographic boundaries, many young workers are confident in their ability to run business in a new way. As one respondent put it: "The place I get hung up on is the actual, physical overseas part of it. In such an interconnected world, I don’t necessarily think you need to literally travel across the ocean to get overseas experience."
We’ve known for years that this generation values work-life balance and a meaningful job experience, teamwork, and job mobility above rapid advancement. I respect these priorities and young workers who get the job done on their own terms. I also accept their ability to forge real bonds and relationships over the Internet. But for a group that came of age in a global economy, it seems odd that young folks would dismiss physical multi-cultural experience so readily.
The good news is that young Americans willing to tear themselves away from their family and friends for a few years can stand out and reap significant career benefits. In time, the millennial generation will be in charge and the companies they run may be more accepting of workers who see no difference between Skype and a handshake. But for now—not that Millennials care—this stay-in-my-comfort-zone attitude threatens to hold them back.
Why do many millennials refuse to undertake foreign assignments?
选项
A、They consider virtual foreign work experience equal important.
B、Those assignment can’t help them advance.
C、Getting virtual foreign work experience is more important for them.
D、They prefer to work in the telecommuting mode.
答案
A
解析
题干所述与第1段最后一句相符,由该句中的As a result可知,这是上一句内容的结果,即本题答案应在第2句中找。该句表明千禧世代视虚拟海外工作经验与真正在海外工作具有同样的职业价值,A的equal important点明了这一点,故为正确答案。
