It is undeniable that university education can positively influence the
career
 growth.
However
, some commentators argue that, joining a firm immediately after schooling for
experience
, would help elevate the
career
 than studying
further
. I completely disagree with the aforementioned statement, as not having a graduate degree from college can confine anyone's
career
 fortunes. On the one hand

Suggestion
the job market
.
That is
 the reason, apparently most high school students opt to
work
 in organizations, immediately after completing their studies. Overall practical
work
experience
 counts. As these students start to
work
 at an early age, their cumulative industrial knowledge benefits them either in getting hired by
other
any of various alternatives; some other

 huge multi-national companies or to get considered for promotions.
Thus
, some of the people encourage high schoolers to look out for reputed employers
to begin
 their careers at the earliest.
For instance
, in

 has precedence over education. According to a study conducted by

the British Council
 for Workers Welfare Association, 65 percent of the technical employees, who were chosen to get promoted were based on their years of
experience
 in the field. Educational

 was not a criteria for the same.
On the other hand

 by offering higher salaries and recognized job titles.
Although
 these students may lack practical

Thus
, most already employed candidates are pushed down by these newly joined students by gaining more benefits, only on the merits of their academic certificates. To conclude, in my perspective, though
experience
 matters, educated candidate get more advantage over experienced ones with no background of higher education.Lack of proper subjective qualifications may always confine anyone's
career
 growth.
