The complete Managing Generation Y article can be found here.
ABSTRACT
Hiring new, young talent just out of college is challenging some established practices of management and changing today’s corporate culture. With the shift of the younger employment force from Generation X to Generation Y, also known as “Millennial”, companies are finding that there are different attitudes and work habits that need to be incorporated into the existing culture. With companies now having different generational mentalities and priorities, the corporate melting pot has new challenges ahead.
For the first time, new college graduates are entering the workforce, having never known a world without computers, cell phones, email, or instant messaging. They have been brought up in a fast-paced, instant world that is always moving and changing. Their parents valued their opinions from the time they were toddlers and gave them choices, rather than making decisions for them.

I found an interesting story about Generation Y with regards to hiring. I too have had a mom call and ask why their kid did not get the job, this story points out the same problem, http://www.cio.com/article/328463/?source=nlt_ciodigest
