Bengaluru CEO highlights Gen Z's math skills deficiency

Bengaluru CEO Ashish Gupta raised concerns about Gen Z's skills in a LinkedIn post. He noted that during campus hiring, only two out of over 50 students could solve a basic math problem, despite their strong social media marketing ideas. Gupta's observations highlight a gap between Gen Z's social media proficiency and their basic problem-solving abilities. He warned that this imbalance could affect their financial literacy and decision-making skills in the future. Research shows many employers struggle with Gen Z hires. A survey found that 60% of US companies have fired at least one Gen Z employee shortly after hiring, citing issues like entitlement and lack of professionalism.
