Nowadays, how to get a better job is a popular topic among students and parents.
Some people believe that colleges and universities should offer students better
job preparation before they start working. Personally, I support the idea,
because job support programs would benefit not only the student, but also
the university and in turn society.
First, better job preparation benefits student seeking better jobs. For example,
thanks to the help of the training courses at my school, I now work as an editor
for a multimedia production company. When I was sophomore, the office of
employment guidance in my university offered a course called job preparation
for students. The course taught us how to choose our careers, how to plan
our future and how to apply and interview for jobs. With the skills
I learned in this course, I found a job before graduation.
Second, better job preparation benefits the fame of the university. For
instance, the competition of education has greatly increased
in recent years. If universities can offer students better job preparation
before they begin to work, more and more students will want to apply for
these universities. Job preparation programs will also create more
successful graduates, who will want to donate more money to their
former university. More funding will allow the university to improve their
facilities and hire better teachers. As a result, the whole level of university
will rise, and the reputation of university will grow.
Finally, better job preparation benefits society as a whole. For example,
better job preparation will prepare students to enter the workforce with
more ambition, inspiring them to create more advanced products. For example,
when my cousin was a senior at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, the school
helped him to find a part-time job of composing piano music. He really liked
this job, and he realized his passion for composing music for radio and
television studios. If he had not done this internship, he would have never
realized his potential. More inspired workers means a more productive economy,
which in fact strengthens society. Therefore, better job preparation in
universities is not only important to students and schools, but also to society.
Considering the above analysis, it is clear that universities should offer
students better job preparation before they start working, because it
benefits the student, university and society.
