Describe an interesting job that you want to have in the future.
You should say:
What it is.
How you can find this job.
What qualities it requires.
And explain why it is a well-paid job and why you think you will be good at it.
Well, the job I want to talk about today is the journalist. Basically speaking, it is not an easy task to find a job as a journalist. In most of the cases, people need to apply for this job in the newspaper agent or in the TV station. As for what this job requires for, what I want to mention firstly is that it requires people to learn about the media theories in detail. The professional media theories can consolidate people’s background knowledge, and those theories will teach people about how to become a journalist as well as how to interview the people. Secondly, it requires people to be sensible to the news. One of the journalist’s responsibilities is to dig news, so I think people need to read more domestic and international news and learn to be sensible to the news happened in the country and the world.
In my country, a professional journalist should not only know about how to dig out the truth, but also be professional at writing news reports, and I think that is also why the journalist is a well-paid job in our country. As for me, I think I am in possession of the basic skills of becoming a journalist. I am active, passionate, and fond of communicating with different kinds of people. It is widely acknowledged that a journalist need to have ‘a thick cheek’ since not every interviewee ii willing to be interviewed. I think my personality is quite suitable to be a successful journalist in the future.
IELTS Speaking Part 3
1) Is it hard to find interesting job in your country?
I think it depends on how you think of what an interesting job is. For me, I think an interesting job should be the one that you like and are willing to devoting efforts. During the process, you should feel more joy than pain from work. Therefore, think being a teacher should be such kind of a job in my mind and it is not hard to find a job as a teacher in my country. While for others, maybe the interesting jobs for them is painting or photographing and it may not be that easy to find a job as professional painter. So, it depends. However, on the whole, I think the market has provided enough choices so that I should not be that hard to find an interesting job.
2) What kinds of preparation should people do for a job interview?
Firstly, to get enough understanding of the position that you are going to apply is important because the employer ii searching the one who is the most suitable and professional about the position. Then, people should practice making a brie self-introduction so that the employer can quickly have the basic information about you and your ability of oral expression Another thing that I think one should prepare is the dressing. To dress according to the right dressing code is key and it is also a respect for others and the sign that you really value this opportunity. For girls, maybe they also should be aware of wearing appropriate make-ups depending on the position that they apply.
3) Why do some people keep changing their jobs?
I believe there are various reasons and various situations. For some people with strong ability, they can do every job well while they switch jobs just to experience more and figure out what they are really passionate about. Also, for those people they may want to keep themselves refreshed because after doing the same job for long, it is 6 easy for people to get bored, so they keep changing jobs to have the feeling of freshness. For another group of people, they do not have many choices and positions that can be offered may only be temporary, so after a while, the company or the employer may no need this position any more. For such kind of people, I think they have to keep doing different jobs without choices for the lack of competitiveness.
4) What should a good employer do?
In my opinion, I think a good employer firstly should trust the employees and give the employees enough opportunities to give their talent into full play and train the employees to become better and better. Also, a good employer should no consider himself or herself to be superior to the employees. Secondly, a good employer should care about the safety of the employees during work. There is a lot of news about the employees getting hurt because of work and I think it ii, also the employer’s responsibility to give the employees a safe environment to work, especially for some special kind of work. In a word, a good employer should really care about the employees from the bottom of the heart.
5) How would you define ‘an interesting job’?
I think an interesting job should be the one that you are passionate about so that during work, you will never feel bored and can feel more joy than suffering. And I believe the definition differs from person to person. For example, for me, I like getting along with the people who are younger than me, so for me, being a teacher should be an interesting job. While for some other people, if they do not like to communicate with the young children, then being a teacher may not sound like a interesting job. Also, an interesting job should be the one that will give you the energy instead of absorbing your inner energy. People will get energy only when they are in positive mood, so an interesting job should be the one that makes people happy.
