With blogging, public relations and [social media jobs](http://www.trendhunter.com/internships) under their belts at a young age, millennials posses more valuable experience in today’s market-force than their Gen-X counterparts.

Millennials are less likely to rest on their laurels and stay in a job for more than three years. The reason for this is that many millennials believe they are under-appreciated in their work. They are more likely to jump ship to further training or a new job altogether.

One third of millennials can find a job in less than a month, which is a higher figure than any other generation. The question is, are they making the right career choices? For many taking part in further studying or something highly employable like an [online media internship](http://www.trendhunter.com/internships) can be a stepping stone into their next dream job.
