Q. Completing university education is thought by some to be the best way to get a good job. On the other hand other people think that getting experience and developing soft skills is more important. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
While certain individuals believe that having a university certificate is more important than landing a decent job, others are of the opinion that having the expertise with some experience is better.
However
, I believe both views have strong points as every good company would want to have the best staff in their workspace. Linking Words
However
, I am of the opinion that owning a skill is more important than having a university certificate.

First
of all, most white-collar jobs require candidates to have a certificate to help the organisation know their strengths and area of specialization, it is assumed that when you have a degree, you're more knowledgeable in that field. Linking Words
Nevertheless
, most universities are theoretical and Linking Words
therefore
not practical. Linking Words
For example
, students who are studying computer science are taught to code Linking Words
thus
, there is no practice, Linking Words
therefore
, Linking Words
such
student will cram to pass exams and get a degree but has theoretical knowledge of coding. In my opinion, Linking Words
such
individuals would need to put in more work in order to be employable.
Linking Words
On the other hand
, having a skilled staff in an organisation is very important because of the years of experience in that field that Linking Words
such
staff possess. Linking Words
For instance
, a software developer who has been coding for 4 years can't be compared to a new graduate who hasn't encountered different problems. A skilled person is most likely to have experienced more and be fit to handle complex problems in the workspace. In my view, having the required know-how should be the criteria for owning a decent Job.
In conclusion, while both points are valid as it is important to have a university education and Linking Words
also
paramount to have the experience, Linking Words
However
, having a skill should be the primary reason for obtaining a good job. Linking Words
Therefore
, people with college certificates should work harder in building themselves so they can be easily employed.Linking Words
