Aspirations | Younger workers have 'given up' on career goals

For many people, securing their dream job will be a top priority within their career and is possibly something they have thought about since childhood.

Whether it is aspiring to set up their own firm one day or to climb the ranks to become the leader of a top company, career goals will vary from person to person.

Yet, sadly, new research from the Prince’s Trust has found that more than one in three young people claim to have given up hope of securing their dream job due to the coronavirus crisis – BBC reported.

The charity explained that a 2,000-strong study of people aged between 16 and 25-years-old in the UK revealed that 44% had lower career goals for the future due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
