About this listen
In this episode of Data, Dollars, and Dynasty, hosts Jeremy Sr., JJ, and Jayden sit down with five of our Datagen Scholar participants (Reshmitha, Pranjali, Parth, Joel, and Sam) to tackle the stereotypes and realities facing Gen Z in today’s workforce. We dig into the headlines about new college graduates struggling to find jobs, the growing skepticism toward higher education, and the persistent label that Gen Z is “lazy.”
Our scholars share their personal perspectives on work ethic, opportunity, and why they joined the Datagen Scholars program. The conversation challenges misconceptions and sheds light on what it really means to build a career in an unpredictable economy.
