Resumen
This paper explores millennial job seekers and their parental involvement in the job search process. Preliminary work on a scale to measure the ?appropriateness? of certain job search behaviors is reported. Ten parental job search behaviors are identified. The appropriateness constructs of ?mentoring? and ?meddling? are developed and empirically tested. Results indicate that both meddling and mentoring are valid and initially useful constructs in examining the suitability of parental involvement in the job search process. The possible impact of parental involvement in the job search process is then discussed along with possible managerial responses.
