Hi Delia,
You know I’m about to start my last year of school, and I’m really struggling to decide what to study
at university. My parents want me to choose a degree that will lead to a financially profitable career –
something like management or computer science – but you know I’d rather study something like history
or philosophy, even if it means I will then need a Master’s degree to find a good job.
Anyhow, I’ve recently seen an announcement for a seminar that talks about the most ‘employable’ degrees
and about the unusual career paths that some people have taken, and I thought it might help me decide
what to do. I know you’re struggling with the same issues, so maybe you’d like to go with me?
Let me know what you think.
Gina

C
Studies show that the most popular Bachelor’s degree courses are healthcare, education and management.
However, a large number of students choose to get a Master’s degree to increase their employment prospects
and competitive edge, especially in business. Those with first degrees in computer science are much less likely
to enrol for a Master’s degree since they are readily employable upon graduation. Those with degrees
in education show the second-highest Master’s degree enrolment because of ongoing certification
requirements rather than personal choice. How many students continue to work in these fields after obtaining
Masters’ is a subject for further study.

PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WHO PURSUE A MASTER’S DEGREE

D
This is an answer to Gina’s post about choosing a degree course. Many young people choose to go into
computer science because it will lead directly to a well-paid job. However, I did a Fine Arts degree because I am
passionate about painting and design. Of course, my degree didn’t lead directly to a job, but after considering a
Master’s in education, I realised I could use my talents in other ways. Now I work for a design magazine, and I
also freelance as an interior designer. This is a lot harder than going straight into a stable job, but it’s never
monotonous, and every day is a new adventure.

2 Przeczytaj tekst, który został podzielony na cztery części (A–D), oraz pytania go dotyczące (1–5).
Do każdego pytania dopasuj właściwą część tekstu. Uwaga: w jednej części tekstu znajdują się
odpowiedzi na dwa pytania.
In which paragraph does the author
1 mention people being trained and promoted by the same company? ___
2 describe a difference between past and present conditions? ___
3 talk about both the negative and positive aspects of a situation? ___
4 give some details of what first jobs might involve? ___
5 describe a conflict between short-term practical solutions and the job market reality? ___
A
Finding that first job after getting your degree is becoming more and more challenging. When your parents
were starting out, they could rely on the fact that companies were looking for educated young people
with little or no work experience to do menial or low-skill tasks. These so-called ‘entry-level’ jobs might involve
answering the phone, making travel arrangements, and helping to put together presentations. Young people
were willing to take on these low-level jobs on the understanding that, with hard work, they could be
promoted to positions that made better use of their skills and education.
B
Nowadays, however, it is harder and harder to find job listings which do not demand two to three years
of relevant work experience, even for entry-level positions. This puts university graduates in a difficult position,
since focusing on their education has made it difficult to take on paid work. If they do work part-time, it is
usually in service-industry jobs such as waiting tables, serving in shops, or doing manual labour, none of which
are relevant to their future careers. This leaves a lot of young people wondering how they can even get a foot
in the door when they seemingly have no chance of gaining the necessary experience.
C
One answer seems to be internships. As one expert on labour issues has said, ‘Internships are now the entry
level.’ University students who land an internship related to their field of study have a definite advantage
when it comes to finding their first real job. Although internships are normally unpaid, which may be
a challenge for less affluent students, they do offer the chance to gain the ‘relevant experience’ which is
so desirable in today’s job market. They also give potential employers a chance to gauge young people’s work
ethic, flexibility and ability to learn, which means that the best interns may end up actually becoming
the future employees of those companies.

Repetytorium. Podręcznik do szkół ponadpodstawowych ©Macmillan Polska 2022 Photocopiable 1

D
A major flaw in the system, however, is that internships are now considered so essential that the competition
for them is extremely fierce. This means that being offered one is not easy, so young people have to prove they
are worthy even to get a foot in the door at this level. One advantage to this, though, is that potential interns
are learning early on how to cope in an increasingly competitive job market. In other words, simply by getting
a good internship they are proving to themselves and to others that they can survive the challenges that
the working world throws at them.
