The children of today will switch jobs an average of 18 times in their lifetime, a new report reveals.

Future of work expert, Kim Seeling Smith, says the number of job changes a person has throughout their life has been increasing steadily for 20 years.

“When you think about it, jobs are changing,” Ms Seeling Smith said.

“People really want to do work that’s meaningful to them and that they’re no longer willing to stay in a dead-end job.”
