Some people suggest that young people should take a job for a few years between school and university Discuss what the advantages and disadvantages might be for people who do this.

Nowadays, a number of youngsters' can be seen working part-time. Some do it for money while some

work

to develop their interest. It is really important to understand the field of interest before getting into university. In

this

essay, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages based on my knowledge and experience.

Firstly

, on one hand, most people choose to stay in their field of

work

. In

such

cases, it is easy for an individual to decide which career to choose.

For example

, I joined as a waitress in a cafe and a year later I was managing the place. I enjoyed my role and its responsibilities. It helped me understand my skills.

As a result

, I decided to study diploma in leadership and management. In the same way, there are many young people who make better choices of study after their experience.

Secondly

,

on the other hand

, some students prefer

work

over education. When they have good pay rates and

work

in hand, they prefer not to go for higher courses.

For example

, a school student working in Mc.Donald's is paid $10 per hour;

however

, once they are 19-years-old they get $27 per hour. In

such

cases, students prefer working full-time and being independent rather than opting for a university course.

Although

this

is not a damaging factor, some believe graduates have better career opportunities. To conclude, I believe it completely differs from person to person. Each human has different views;

therefore

, I personally think a job in between school and college will surely provide a clear vision on where to go and what to do in near future.

Hence

, according to me, the advantages overshadow the disadvantages.
