Some people believe that employees should stay in the same job for the rest of their lives. Other think they should switch jobs at least once during their career. To what extent do you agree/disagree?

There are many arguments about which option is good for the employee to take, either to be stable in the same job for the remainder of their working lives, or else to change their careers from time to time. In my opinion, the changing a

career

-option can often have a beneficial impact for the candidates, as it gives a good opportunity to gain new skill-sets while

also

achieving a new

career

-direction, and for which someone has perhaps been striving for a long time to achieve. In

this

essay, I will discuss both points of views and explain my opinion.

Firstly

, having only one

career

definitely has its merits. The advantage of having ‘a-job-for-life’ is that an employee could perhaps find it easier to achieve the highest-point in his/her

career

and

also

acquire great experience, so

then

, his/her society gains an

expert

specifically, for

such

a designated profession. Those experts, who have acquired

such

in-depth knowledge and experience are usually considered status-wise, as being equated to the highest levels of expertise and are often given senior-research-posts for improving the knowledge or efficacy of whatever community and/or the profession, in which they serve.

For instance

, Dr. Magdi Yaqoob, is the one of the most-renowned heart surgeons, anywhere in the world. He started his work in the medical field, and still practicing in the same

career

.

This

gave him a vast opportunity to study cardiology in-depth and become an

expert

in his field.

Additionally

, it helps the community to gain an experienced and

expert

cardiologist, as well as to teach a new generation of heart-surgeons. Alternatively, sometimes, changing professions is very important for other reasons too, as it gives a chance for other people to learn another vocation with new skills, while simultaneously, acquainting themselves with new colleagues and the workplace as well. The contemporary 21st century workplace now offers a variety of new careers-prospects and positions, which had previously not been thought as being conceivable. Those new and potential

career

opportunities may probably attract candidates to join new professions, even perhaps through using E-search-systems or similar ones, yet to be invented or devised for filling

such

job-openings.

This

switch is helping a lot of people to change their lives and lifestyles, by getting a newer and more interesting job as well. In conclusion, having a job for the rest of the life has its benefits for getting a higher-level, better-calibre, well-educated and

expert

candidates in their specialist fields. Unquestionably, in some professions, the employees should stay in it for the whole of their working-lives, in order to achieve the zenith of their careers’ potential,

such

as doctors, architects and engineers.

However

, changing

career

-pathways are

also

helping employees to learn new skills and open their minds to a new and potentially more sides of their working-landscapes, to explore and exploit.

This

also

motivates employees and stimulates greater interest in their

career

-choices and towards achieving a successful and more enjoyable life for themselves and their families
