A comfort for job seekers belonging to any age group is that ultimately, the right job will find the right individual. In regards to "going the extra mile" I don't mean to imply Y'ers providing choices A, B, and C is always a good and welcome thing. In my experience, being given multiple results creates more work (and more frustration for co-workers, team members and managers) especially if time is of the essence. Yes!

As a Boomer, I do agree with Jessica that there are definitely differences in work ethics between generations. Yes, you can count on Boomers to get the job done, but I don't think you can generalize that that they don't go the extra mile to provide alternatives to any given task. I think this is more related to differing personality types as well as thinking styles. Ned Hermann's work on brain dominance is applicable to any age group; if you're a big picture thinker, it doesn't matter what age you are vs. those that are more detail oriented and focused in their approach to a task. While I know there is research to support some of the broader generalizations regarding generational differences in the workforce, ultimately I believe you are dealing with individuals. I also feel that using some of the current HR tools that are available for screening candidates, such as the Predictive Index, will ultimately help employers find the right person for the right job - no matter what age they are!
