Some people believe that becoming a graduate is an ideal way to get yourself a decent job while many people emphasize more on the importance of prior work experience and interpersonal skills. In my opinion, a college

needs to show maturity at their workplace which is likely to come when one has a prior hands-on experience. Becoming a graduate opens the door for many opportunities to get hired by large corporations and multinational companies.

That is

to say, it is much easier to earn an employer’s trust by having a

that certifies one’s qualification.

For example

Therefore

known that fresh graduates face a lot of challenges in dealing with their colleagues and superiors once they start working.

In other words

Nowaways, more teenagers want to become famous actors or singers. Why do you think this is happening? Is this a positive or negative development?
Domestic and international Investment will not grow as the pandemic will affect the countries with a pandemic. Economic growth is accompanied by changes in the structure of the economy. When there is a disease outbreak, new firms will not have opportunities to establish themselves, as banks will not be able to loan them money. Moreover, banks may face a crisis, for example, the US banks had given large numbers of mortgages to low-income households on deals that fixed low repayments for a few years. During the pandemic, many would not be able to afford the repayments and banks may be bundling mortgages together and selling packages of mortgages to other banks or investors.

In many countries, smoking is now illegal in public places. Many people believe that such a ban is justified. Do you agree or disagree?
Smoke is prohibited in public areas in many nations, a law supported by many people as a correct measure to society. From my point of view, smoking should be restricted continuously to aware society of its damage and consequences not just for smokers, but for people around them.
