When employers choose the best person for a job they should consider personal qualities, rather than qualifications and experience. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Getting a job opportunity in the current competitive world is a challenging task. It is believed that when choosing the right candidate,
instead
of considering the experience and the education, the employer should focus on personal qualities. I disagree with this
statement for two reasons. One
is why the qualification is important, and the other one
is how experience plays a vital role during employment.
Firstly
, a company should focus on relevant qualifications according to their roles and responsibilities. It gives fundamental knowledge about the subject that people study. For example
, to work in an automotive industry production line, the person should be qualified either in the mechanical or automobile field
. This
helps the employer to train the person as quickly as possible rather than spending more money on training. Moreover
, the individual character is one
of the criteria’s during the interview ,and not the deciding factor. As a result
, companies’ vision can be easily achieved.
Secondly
, job experience is highly required than self-qualities. Many companies are struggling to find the right candidate for a specific role. This
cannot be achieved by recruiting a fresh employee considering the individual strength and give him/her training for a number of months. For instance
, to fulfil the requirement in the field
of software development, a highly experienced professional is mandatorily required to finish any project within the timeline. Therefore
, it is vital for an employer to recruit a candidate with some set of skills in the relevant field
.
To conclude, nothing can compromise in considering the required field
of study and on the job exposure for a particular role. It is recommended that one
should have exposed themselves in their field
of interest and gain knowledge.Submitted by Vijay Pandurangan on
