Abstract

The entry of Generation Z into the labor market creates new challenges for Human Resource Management (HRM), especially in regions with limited talent supply. IT professionals often have high salary expectations and lower organizational loyalty, forcing companies to rethink recruitment strategies. This study combines spatial data analysis with cooperative game theory to examine salary expectations. Using survey data from IT students, the Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) model predicts salary expectations based on spatial factors.
