Task 38
Imagine that you are doing a project on what school-leavers in Zetland prioritise when choosing their future careers. You have found some data on the subject – the results of a survey (see the table below).
Comment on the survey data and give your opinion on the subject of the project.
The survey question:
Which is the most important factor in your career choice?
Factors | Number of respondents (%) |
|---|---|
High income | 45 |
Work-life balance | 20 |
Job satisfaction | 18 |
Job stability | 10 |
Career growth opportunities | 7 |
Write 200-250 words.
Use the following plan:
– make an opening statement on the subject of the project;
– select and report 2–3 facts;
– make 1–2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments;
– outline a problem that can arise with choosing a career and suggest a way of solving it;
– conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on whether a financial reward should be the primary driver of a career choice.
