All you need to know about hiring Millennials in Malaysia

One of the gripes Malaysian employers have when hiring millennials, especially fresh graduates, is their unrealistic salary expectations. That said, in order for employers to attract the best talent in today's limited talent pool, organisations have to ensure competitive packages - especially since salary/ financial compensation is the most important consideration to Malaysian Millennials.

According to the World Economic Forum's Global Shapers Annual Survey 2017, 51.3% of Malaysian Millennials indicated salary/ financial compensation as the most important criteria when considering job opportunities.
