Abstract/Summary

Millennials are the cohort born from 1980 to 2000. They have unique traits that demands a different approach. With the apparent rise of millennials in the workplace, the researchers aim to find out if there exists a relationship between the Big Five personality traits and the preferred job factors of millennials from Metro Manila, as it was mentioned in the study of Bipp (2010) that personality traits do have influence on an individual's job characteristics choice. In our study however, job characteristics are referred to as preferred job factors. Two-tailed correlation was used to analyze the gathered data from 95 Filipino millennials who have been working in metro Manila for 2 to 3 years in their present organization. It was found that among all possible relationships between the Big Five personality traits and preferred job factors, there exists only six significant relationships: agreeableness with security, neuroticism with type of work, security, advancement, and benefits, and openness to experience with type of work.
