Seventy-one percent want advice to help them figure out what to do next but don’t know where to go for answers, according to the LinkedIn study. &quot;While there isn’t one simple solution to get over a quarter-life crisis, getting advice from people that have had similar experiences can help navigate these career crossroads,” Linda Lee, LinkedIn’s Head of Communications for Southeast Asia and North Asia, said.
