The current study explores trends in communication styles of millennials by investigating a sample of 135 PG students from an institute in Mumbai, India. Communication styles(director, socializer, relater, thinker) are examined vis-à-vis various demographics. The findings have scope for being empirically tested and validated by future researchers. Results suggest that students have a disposition for being socializers irrespective of their gender or sector. Directors and thinkers draw maximum salary package offers. Results highlight the relevance of self-awareness for capitalizing on ones’ communication styles and ensuring a good person-job fit, consequently benefiting the organizations. Findings of this study have implications for students and organization.
