Chances are, you're not going to find your dream job in your 20s. Hoskins spent her 20s working in different cities and industries after graduating with a degree in architecture from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Experimenting with different careers in your 20s can help you develop your skills, discover new passions, or, in Hoskins' case, return to old ones. That decision was influenced, in part, by one of Hoskins' favorite childhood hobbies: flipping through architecture magazines and doodling designs based on the spreads. A native of Chicago, Hoskins says she grew up with plenty of exposure to the striking buildings that make up the city's downtown and pages of Architectural Record, a magazine her mother often brought home.

It's no secret that people aren't going to the office as much as they used to. The "biggest mistake" companies make when thinking about the office itself, and its role in enticing people back in, says Cohen, is not understanding what their employees actually want from the office. "What many companies don't realize is that the office needs to give employees the space and resources for both collaborative and deep focus work, not one or the other," he explains. "What creates a great office experience, one that employees look forward to, is giving them a sense of choice," she explains. The businesses that don't adapt to employees' evolving preferences and needs, says Cohen, could see their offices become obsolete.

But it takes a lot more than being a hard worker who meets deadlines to be a standout employee. Hoskins has noticed that younger employees — Gen Zers and millennials —are especially good at establishing strong, empathetic relationships with higher-ups. If it's hard to find time on their calendar for a check-in, Cohen says you can still build a strong personal relationship with your boss with small gestures. What most employees don't realize, adds Hoskins, is that "as much as you want your boss to like you, they want you to like them too. So don't be afraid to be seen, to build a close relationship with them."
