The document discusses the debate around whether higher education or gaining experience is more important for getting a good job. It presents arguments on both sides of the issue. Those in favor of higher education argue that it provides a clear career path and opportunities for internships. However, others believe experience and skill development from trying different jobs is more valuable than a university degree alone. In the end, the document concludes that getting a job depends more on experience than just a university degree given changing workplace standards.

It is a believed that if someone wants to get a good job, this person
should complete university education. Although I gravitate to those who believe that getting experience and developing skills is more important, so there is no general necessity in getting higher education. Both views will be analyzed on here. It is often claimed that university education is the most important goal of entire life without which it is impossible to apply for better job and build own future career. Firstly, classic linear education path is really clear and simple, so person is able to major in needed subjects in order to become an educated specialist. This means that the person who finished a university has an understanding of profession which is widely appreciated by employers. Secondly, university students can also have a true practice that is usually available after the third year of the university. In particular, many professors of higher education institutions are in charge of different companies, so that they can hire especially gifted ones for the purpose of providing internship. For others, higher education does not play such an important role as gaining experience or skill development. Recently, it has become more popular to start working after finishing the school and the reason for this might be absence of desire to focus on a single career path. For instance, instead of five years of university studies an individual can try different jobs and get a great quantity of practice in several fields of the job market. Another factor that should be mentioned is that this kind of people is much more capable of working flexibly and of job-sharing too. At this time less and less employers look for workforce with only one degree, unlike modern part-timers that work at diverse jobs during the workday. In the final analysis, both sides of the argument have precise advantages supported by certain facts. However, having analyzed the two camps, I am of the opinion that getting a job doesn’t depend on one’s university degree overall. Old standards of finding own niche, working day form nine to five and of course being bound with only one specialty are gradually disappearing.
