Task Achievement
To improve the score further on task achievement, consider providing more specific examples of your previous experience which make you suitable for the role. For instance, you mentioned having a lot of experience in your previous role; elaborating on the skills developed or responsibilities held can strengthen your argument.
Coherence and Cohesion
For coherence and cohesion, aim to connect ideas between paragraphs more fluidly. While each paragraph contains a single idea, transitions between them could be enhanced. Using conjunctions or phrases that build upon the previous point can help in creating a more cohesive narrative.

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately

Linking words are very important in your essay.

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.

In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.

Linking word examples:

  • firstly
  • secondly
  • thirdly
  • in additional
  • moreover
  • also
  • for example
  • for instance
  • therefore
  • however
  • although
  • even though
  • despite
