Pengaruh Destination Image, Memorable Tourist Experience, dan Green Value Co – Creation Terhadap Revisit Intention Gen Z (Studi Pada Objek Wisata Bukit Skoter Dieng Banjarnegara)

Abstract

Strict age limits and increased qualification requirements have currently dominated Indonesia’s entry-level job market. Although intended for new graduates, many positions demand 1–2 years of experience, technical skills, or formal internships—contradicting the essence of entry-level employment. This paper investigates how these practices create structural barriers to formal employment. Using existing literature and a survey on new graduates, we examine the impact of age and experience-based filters on applicant confidence, readiness, and job access. The finding reveals a mismatch between employer expectations and what new graduates can realistically offer, given Indonesia’s socioeconomic and educational conditions. To address this gap, the paper
proposes reforms from both employer and policymaker perspectives to support a more inclusive labour market. It highlights how current hiring practices contribute to the growing number of unemployed new graduates, adding to the discourse on youth unemployment and workforce equity.
