Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyse the phenomenon of the hybrid careers of persons combining professional activity with the additional one. The participants of the study included young adults from the Millennial generation who combined two roles in their professional life, including one related to activism, cultural activity, volunteering or working for non-governmental organisation. The qualitative study conducted in the first quarter of 2021 included interviews with respondents born between 1980 and 2000. It focused on the reasons behind their engagement in the hybrid work, on the practical aspects of the hybrid careers, benefits as well as on costs and related preferences. Their hybrid careers were considered in the context of the flow experience. The discussion includes the preliminary conclusions from the project and recommendations for further qualitative and quantitative research.
