About "Jobs"

Work plays an important role in our lives. This way we do not only earn money but also find our place in society, spend time with other people and feel useful. Choosing one’s job can be difficult and it can take time to make a final decision and choose the job we would like to do.

When we are young, we don’t think hard about our future job. Most of us want to be rich and famous. As we grow up, we become wiser and realise the importance of choosing our job. We start thinking about what we would like to do and what job would be appropriate for us. It is not easy to choose the right profession, especially at a young age. We need a job that fulfils us, as well as a job in which we can make enough money to cover our living costs. We also have to consider several factors, such as the type of work, possible promotion and career development, salary, working time, travel opportunities, place of work and others.

The time to make this final decision is during secondary school. We decide whether we want to do a manual job, which requires physical powers or a better-paid job that requires more qualifications. Professions like a lawyer, economist, manager, teacher and doctor require college or university education and it takes hard work to get the qualification.

Apart from the proper qualifications, some professions require certain qualities, others talent and creativity. For instance, if you want to become a doctor, you need determination, patience, flexibility and sensitivity, you should be good at dealing with people and be prepared to work long hours – even weekends. Future teachers should be friendly, good at dealing with people, good at explaining things and very patient, and artists or designers need to have a special talent, good imagination and lot of creativity.






After getting the required qualifications for the chosen job, it’s time to look for a future employer. The available positions are published in the newspapers or on the Internet but we can also ask our friends and acquaintances if they know about any job vacancies. In larger organisations the personnel selection is organised by the Human Resources Department. The candidates send the job application,
