[00:08.03]Go to Work or Further one's Study?
[00:12.13]Many college students will be faced with a dilemma
[00:17.05]when approaching graduation:
[00:18.73]to go to work or further one's study?
[00:22.40]There is no consensus of opinion among college students.
[00:27.31]Some believe that it is necessary to further their study.
[00:32.17]With the competition in the job market
[00:35.44]getting fiercer and fiercer,
[00:37.68]college graduates today possess little advantage
[00:41.79]when an increasing number of Masters are competing with them.
[00:45.64]On the contrary,
[00:47.39]others hold that it is more advisable to go to work.
[00:51.43]For one thing,
[00:53.17]a higher degree is no longer a guarantee
[00:55.63]of a better job as most companies nowadays attach more
[01:01.34]importance to one's working ability instead of a diploma.
[01:05.51]For another,
[01:07.06]the job choices left to higher-degree holders
[01:10.70]may be fewer than those they had as graduates.
[01:14.19]In my opinion,
[01:16.18]to go to work or further one's study after graduation
[01:20.31]depends on each individual's practical situation.
[01:24.42]If a higher degree is what one need,
[01:27.47]he can consider further study;
[01:30.08]otherwise he can begin his job hunting as early as possible.
