A second great resignation could be ahead as 28% of workers indicated they are likely to quit their job this year, the same percentage that reported quitting one or more jobs during the first Great Resignation of 2021 and 2022.

A recent ResumeBuilder.com survey of 1,000 full-time workers found younger workers are more likely to quit their jobs, with many in search of higher salaries or different work modalities. Among those between the ages of 18 and 24, 37% said they are likely to quit their jobs this year, and 35% of those 25 to 34 years old said the same.

ResumeBuilder.com's resume and career strategist Julia Toothacre noted it is often quicker to increase salary through a job change every few years, and younger workers tend to switch jobs at a higher rate as they try to determine what type of function, industry and environment works best for them.
