In some countries, young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the adavantages and disadvantages for young people who decide to do this.

Many students who have completed their university studies find difficulty in landing in a
job
. They lack clarity in their
field
of study. As per my opinion, before joining the university they have to work for at least a year to avoid
this
problem.
However
I don't agree with some others who say it is not necessary to work before higher studies, On one hand, students who have an interest in a particular
field
can at least work for a year to gain some basic knowledge about that
field
. It would be beneficial for them to understand the basic function of that
field
,
moreover
, it helps them to to get a good clarity about the subject, and it will help them in getting a well-paid
job
also
. As per the latest survey by a
job
search website called Indeed.com, most of the HR's prefer students with previous experience either full time or part-time.
In addition
to that,they are ready to give 15% more pay than the other students who don't have any experience. Though there are more benefits in doing a
job
or experiencing life through travel before going for higher studies, some parents feel that they are wasting their children's time.
Instead
, they want their children to spend more time on their studies.
Although
parents wish seems to be good,
this
will definitely hamper the student's ability to identify a
job
. With the help of training and

nature, there is a big chance for a student to become an entrepreneur. Consider a student who works after his diploma and gains skill, he will be considered for a lateral entry in many colleges and they are hired by most of the companies faster than other students since they have more skill and knowledge. To conclude my arguments, I feel working and gaining knowledge about the
field
of study before doing a degree gives them more clarity in studies as well as how well they can perform in office and there are only some negligible disadvantages.
