Abstract

Corona pandemic has had an impact on both supply and demand in the labor market in Serbia.
Reducing of economic activity negatively affected to the business environment, forcing companies to reorganize
their management, logistics, and communication structures, as well as the qualifications of their employees. Driven
by the experience of the previous economic crisis, labor costs in a large number of companies were reduced, which
leading to layoffs. Organizations that have moved online have also stopped their internship programs for students
and graduates. Several million graduates worldwide are facing with a frozen labor market. Moreover, employers
were already dissatisfied with the education system, feeling that graduates did not provide adequate skills and
competencies required in the market. There is no doubt that Generation Z members will face lower career
development opportunities as well as lower earnings during their careers. The paper focuses on an overview of
previous researches on the topic ' position of new graduates in the pandemic period'. By collecting the research
results so far, the result of the paper is giving recommendations for further scientific researches and guidelines for
decision-makers on the topic of youth employment.
