Salary is the key factor that people in their 20s and 30s here consider the most when making career decisions, a recent survey shows.
최근 설문조사에 따르면 국내 20~30대들이 직업을 결정할 때 가장 많이 고려하는 사항은 급여다.


According to a survey conducted of 1,865 people in their 20s and 30s by recruiting platform Saramin on factors influencing career choice, 33.8 percent of the respondents chose salary as their top priority.
채용 플랫폼 '사람인'이 20~30대 직장인 1,875명을 대상으로 직업 선택에 영향을 끼치는 요인에 대해 실시한 설문조사에 따르면 응답자 가운데 33.8퍼센트가 급여를 1순위로 꼽았다.


The other factors chosen in order of importance were: work-life balance at 23.5 percent, job stability at 13.1 percent, welfare programs for employees at 10 percent and the possibility of career development at 8.7 percent.
중요도 순으로 일과 삶의 균형 23.5%, 직업 안정 13.1%, 직원 복지 프로그램 10%, 경력 개발 가능성 8.7퍼센트 등의 응답이 그 뒤를 이었다.


As for reasons to switch jobs, salary was again the top cause, with 37.4 percent saying that they would change or want to change jobs for a higher salary, when multiple answers were allowed.
복수 응답 가운데 이직 이유를 묻는 질문에도 37.4퍼센트가 더 높은 급여를 위해 이직을 하거나 이직할 의향이 있다고 밝혀 급여가 가장 큰 이유에 올랐다.


Some 23 percent also said that they are looking for other jobs, as their current jobs involve only repetitive tasks that may not help their career development.
약 23퍼센트는 또 현재 업무가 경력 개발에 도움이 되지 않는 반복적인 업무를 포함하기에 다른 일자리를 알아보고 있다고 답했다.


Next, 18.8 percent said that their workplace culture ― including the openness of debates, the ability to take part in decisions and the logic of procedures ― is not rational. Finally, 18.7 percent said that they are seeking better work-life balance.
이어 18.8퍼센트는 논의의 개방성, 의사 결정 참여 여부 및 절차 논리 등 업무 환경이 합리적이지 않다고 말했다. 끝으로 18.7퍼센트는 더 나은 일과 삶의 균형을 추구하고 있다고 답했다.


KEY WORDS
■ consider 고려하다
