With the world changing so quickly, many are curious about the millennial workforce. From TollFreeForwarding.com, the infographic Work Habits of the New Millennium explores a range of different personality types within this group. It is estimated by 2015 there will be more 20-something workers than baby boomers radically changing the landscape of the workplace.
Categories of people within the millennial workforce include the homebody, the night owl, the multi(media)-tasker, the hobby-lobbyist and the nomad. Usually undefined by a typical 9 to 5 work day, millennials are also rarely defined by a single job or career path. Pervasive Internet connectivity allows members of Generation Y to work from home, work late hours and multi-task like never before.
