Whether taking job just after graduating from high school or not?

It has been such a long time since the last time I posted a new note on this blog :)

Topic: Many people suggest that after graduating from high school, students should take a job immediately. To what extend do you agree or disagree? 

After graduating from high school, students have to face the dilemma of whether continuing to study at university or seeking for an actual occupation. Many people argue that getting a job is much beneficial for young people to gain practical experience. Personally, I strongly disagree with this statement for the following reasons.

Finding a well – paid job with no qualifications is incredibly challenging nowadays. Currently, owing to the economic recession in 2008, many enterprises have been bankrupted abruptly. Obviously, a large number of experienced workers are unemployed, which makes the job market become highly competitive. Additionally, because of not acquiring specialized knowledge, young students are only able to take a manual employment with low salary, namely a waiter or a cleaner. As a result, people cannot afford a stable life with high living standards.

Furthermore, studying at university provides essential skills and information for the future career.  Admittedly, university plays a pivotal role in giving an opportunity of practicing prior to entering the actual profession. Hardly do people work in accomplished sectors, particularly neurology or medical care, without both several training years and specialized knowledge of these fields. Therefore, achieving university education acts as a precursor to the development of personal career.

In conclusion, it is not an easy answer for this argument in the short term. Nevertheless, learning at university not only fortifies individual background but also gives candidates a huge advantage in the process of seeking for a job.
