• Nav Karmacharya, a 23-year-old cybersecurity analyst, is one of the countless social media influencers who post career-related content on TikTok. He’s amassed 14,000 followers—primarily students and early career professionals—on the app in four months, just by posting his day-to-day life as a worker in cybersecurity. Karmacharya’s following represents a growing number of young adults looking for career guidance on social platforms, researchers tell Fortune.

Most times Pranav (Nav) Karmacharya works from home. Sometimes he decides to hop over to a local college and find somewhere comfy to catch up on Slack messages; other times he’s recording himself at 5 a.m. waiting in an airport to fly to San Francisco for a work trip.
