Über uns
Generation is a global non-profit youth employment organization founded by McKinsey & Company. It was born from a study that looked at 150 employment programs in 25 countries and surveyed 17,000+ employers, students, and education providers, identifying gaps in existing offerings and the most effective approaches to fill them. Generation encompasses a seven-step approach, with a 4-12-week boot camp-style training that integrates technical, behavioral, and mindset skills. By focusing on repeated practice of the most important activities for a role - what Generation calls “breakdown moments” - the program prepares graduates to perform well from day one on the job. In Hong Kong, Generation seeks to address the two-sided talent mismatch, supporting youth and SEN youth aged 18-29, and mid-career changers. We specifically seek to bridge talent mismatch and challenge the societal perception that grades and level of education as the major screening factor for hiring entry level employees. Generation Hong Kong aims to: • Coach Hong Kong’s next generation & mid-career changers to equip them with skills to shape their own future. There is no such thing as the wrong choice; we help them to switch careers without a high commitment in time and cost when they are still carving out their unique path. • Provide scenario-based training and repeated practice so that they can hit the ground running from day one. Generation work closely with employers from various sectors to develop curriculum that is relevant for both the geography and the industry. • Challenge the societal perception that grades and education level should be the major screening factors in hiring entry-level employees. We have collaborated with like-minded employers and are continuously on the lookout for more employers to join us in addressing this challenge to relax the academic criteria and identify innovative approaches to hire the talent they want and need.

🌟 A heartfelt thank you to the Apollo Opportunity Foundation (AOF) and their volunteers for supporting the "Junior Data Engineering Program" as part of their Apollo Communities Together (ACT) campaign in Hong Kong! The pre-employment training bootcamp empowers first-time job seekers with the skills and confidence they need to thrive in the tech industry. 🚀 We were honored to visit AOF's office, where their Human Capital and Investment team led insightful professional development sessions on "Keys to Success in a Corporate World" and a career-coaching Q&A. During the breakout session, 17 dedicated AOF volunteers engaged in meaningful discussions with our learners, addressing their fears of landing a tech job as fresh juniors in the tech field and providing invaluable advice and encouragement. 💪 Our learners, initially feeling doubtful and anxious at their career crossroads, left the event inspired and more ready to embark on their professional journeys. 🌈 Interested in partnering with us to help young people reach their full potential?

🎉 Calling Generation HK’s alumni 🎉 Generation HK recently hosted two resoundingly successful alumni gatherings, both were filled with energy and laughter. The supportive and collaborative spirit is at the heart of the Generation community. Based on the feedback from our recent alumni survey, we learned that our alumni were eager to learn from each other’s experiences and continue supporting one another beyond the program. That's why these reunion events were so special - our alumni were deeply engaged, enthusiastically exchanging ideas and forming new connections. That passion and willingness to "walk the path together" is what makes the Generation community so unique. A huge thank you to all who attended and participated. We're already looking forward to the next alumni gathering - the energy and collaboration was truly amazing. If you're a Generation graduate, be sure to keep an eye out for details on the next event!
