英語力向上・維持のための英作文～To maintain English skills 7

今日のIELTSライティングは昨今の就職・転職市場について☝

最近は経験が重要視されているが、それでは将来、資格・学歴等は必要なくなるか否か💥

たまに転職サイトSeekとか覗くことはあるが、海外では特に経験の方が重要視されている気がする。特に経理の仕事は最低でも１年～３年の経験が応募条件として提示されている。

では学歴はどうだ？特になし。

なんてこたぁない💧もちろん仕事のタイプやカテゴリーにもよるが経理・会計・財務関連になるとやはりAccounting/Finance の学士がマストってとこが多いようだな。

Anyway, let's get started!!

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

In today's job market it is far more important to have practical skills than theoretical knowledge. In the future, job applicants may not need any formal qualifications.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Write at least 250 words.

Current job market requires candidates with more paractical skills rather than qualificaions and thus, the qualifications will be no longer needed in the future. In my opinion, practical skills are more important but qualification will never be needless.

During job hunting, many candidates notice that most of employers are seeking a candidate with at least a certain period of working experience in a similar position. It is needless to say that it is because they can save time and money spending on a new employee for training. Even university graduates are required working experience and therefore they are actively seeking internship opportunities while studying. Only minority of employers accept those who have no practical experience, believing that candidates are worth enough to spend time and money for training. Likewise, they accept because a job position may be unique or differentiated to other jobs so that less number of candidates is willing to apply for the position.However, it does not mean that qualifications are not needed. All job seekers, at first, do not have any practical experience. They are hired because they have knowledge or skills acquired during school education. For example, in finance or accounting industry, one of degrees or qualifications; namely, finance, accounting, economics and business, is required for applicants. Besides, it is statistically proved that employees working in a management position are likely to have a certain degree of qualification and vice versa. Thus, if applying for a management position in any department, it most likely requires both experience and qualifications.

In conclusion, practical skills are highly regarded in recent job market but it does not mean that qualifications are not demanded. Candidates will be successful if he or she does have both experience and qualifications and that is what most employers are looking for. (298 words)
