Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Young people should try several different jobs before they take a long term career
When it comes to the controversial issue that whether young adults should try different jobs before choosing the job they are more likely to do in the long term , owing to distinctive backgrounds and personal experiences ,divergent viewpoints will emerge. Some people would argue that different jobs can provide the young people more working experiences in various aspects. Other people will hold the opinion that young adults will concentrate less on their work because of their frequently changing jobs. However, as far as I am concerned, trying different jobs can give the young adults more choices before they make their final decision about their jobs. As I will discuss below.
To begin with , most of the young adults , who have just graduated from the college or not, all face the problems of finding jobs. In fact, the young adults are not familiar with the society. They even do not know what they like and what they dislike. Most of them initially choose their jobs just for the purpose of survival. The amount of wages is the most important factor for the young adults to evaluate when they are selecting jobs. According to a statistics data, almost eighty percent of the young adults have changed their jobs for numbers of reasons, such as showing less interest in their work , or seeking for a work providing high salary and better promotion, etc. Taking my colleague professor as an example, she was once an employee of an electric company about two years ago. Attracted by the high wages provided by this company , she anticipated in this company and signed up a contract being an employee for 3 years. She believed that it may bring her a bright future. However, to her surprise, this onerous work usually make her feel exhausted and stressful. She had so little time for relaxation. Gradually, she felt tired of this job and quitted it at last. During the time she was a free-lancer, she had tried lots of jobs that were not fit for her. Finally, she returned to her colleague and become a teacher. She told me that being a teacher could live a relaxed and unhurried life, which made her feel at ease. Therefore, changing the jobs can satisfy the current need of the young adults under different circumstances.
In addition, the working experiences which accumulated by different jobs can make the young adults become more competitive in the society. There is a saying goes " To be a leader, you have to first learn how to be a follower. " Learning is essential to the young adults wherever in the school or in the society. The experiences we have learned from various jobs can absolutely pave the road to our success. For instance, JiaCheng Lee, the famous entrepreneur in HK, had changed so many jobs when he was an young adult. At first, he worked as a waiter in a restaurant. Being a waiter, he learned how to make his customers become more satisfied with him. It brought him great advantages to his interpersonal skills in his later life. Then he began to operate the factory with some other cooperators. During this period, he had mastered the skills to manage the factory .From then on, he had started his build up his own career and got success.
Finally, we can not deny that frequently changing of the jobs will not render the young adults concentrate on what they are working. They can not gain enough knowledge and learn more skills in the specific area. However, outweighing the advantages and disadvantages, I am prone to agree that trying different jobs before they decide which job or career they will benefit the young people more. |
