Nowadays, it is pretty hard to get a job as a student and there can be different reasons of why. For example, the employers don’t really want to hire someone with none, to, a little of working experience. Which gets kind of tough to get hold of a job for a student with no job skill. Another reason and maybe the most important one, in my opinion, is that the students have a little knowledge on how to get a job. But with the government's help we perhaps could teach the students.

Many students including myself work for local businesses in the summer. Us students make up a large amount of these businesses employes. Without high schoolers working the business owners can not make a profit, which essentially causes them to lose money and possibly go bankrupt. High school students being summer workers is not the only
I can’t count how many teens I know who don’t feel comfortable around other people. A lot of them get nervous when someone starts talking to them because, maybe, they’re not around people who they are familiar with. By getting a job when they are younger, they can have a chance to be around people more like them, and they’d develop people skills because of their added confidence. This added confidence could help them succeed in many of life’s challenges that require them to speak their minds about their opinions and feelings. Therefore, jobs at an early age can help build confidence and make more friends. And who wouldn’t want more friends?
“Universities teach students how to think, but they do not provide real world experience, so people leave school unprepared for the workplace” (Smith). “More than half of all companies (60%) said new graduates lacked critical thinking skills and attention to detail (56%), while 44% found fault with their writing proficiency, and 39% were critical of their public speaking ability” (Berr). Students find it very difficult to understand what they need to do to prepare for the workforce. Instead, students could have been doing other things that could increase their techniques to help them make money in different
Long hours, no free time, and lots of stress are some reason why lots of high schoolers do not get jobs while in school. However, they only look at the down side of getting a job. There are oodles of great reasons to receive a job while undergoing school. For starters, a student that obtains a job has a chance to obtain work experience that numerous other higher paying jobs and career options are fond of their employee’s having. They will be making money, which all people, especially high school students like to have. Lastly, they will have responsibilities that are more than just going to school. It will give the student a chance to see somewhat of what it is like to live in the real world.
With prom, school sports and other fun trips high school has to offer, paying for all these actives may not be ideal for the parent of these high school students. Getting a job can be an option for high school students to help the student also to the parent with these experiences that are coming. Amitai Etzioni the author of “Working at McDonalds” makes it clear, high school students with part-time jobs does not do anything for the high school student. Amitai Eztioni believes these part-time jobs does not teach true skills a high school student will need in the future. Even though Amitai Etzioni strongly consider part-time jobs have no long life value, part-time jobs do prepare high school students to develop job skills for their future because learn to maintain priorities , the student learns the value of money , and develop life skills.
“In fall 2016, some 20.5 million students are expected to attend American colleges and universities, constituting an increase of about 5.2 million since fall 2000” (National Center for Education Statistics). That number seems to be rising each and ever year, and it almost seems as students feel like they have to go to college directly after high school. Maybe it is because they feel that they have to fit in, even if college is not for them. Although some students attend college for academics, sports, and other reasons, some students attend college for no apparent reason; with that in mind, students should take into consideration the time and money that is put into going to college.
Nowadays, students love to have part-time jobs. Their parents approve it easily as they are said to gain experience from working. However, having a job is a big responsibility for a student. Before, teenagers at their age were working to help their family because of poverty. Nevertheless, they were actually eager to study and learn at school for their future. It was not the same as the teenagers nowadays where they are more likely competing to each other to have a job. Most of the
In the competitive world today, having a college degree might not benefit a student as much as before, thus opening up numerous questions concerning its necessity. Not only is the number of students desperately trying to enroll in college increasing, but the tuition shoots up as well. However, will college enrollment necessarily be enough to increase your chances of attaining job security? The answer is hotly debated amongst adults and students alike, which opens up the second option for students, that is, joining the work force. Although this option is generally shunned by the new generation, the tough economy and slow restoration makes it quite a desirable choice at the moment. Joining the work force is a hard decision to make as it
At the same time students today face a higher chance of unemployment after graduation. This
In Robert E. Sullivan, Jr.’s “Greatly Reduced Expectations”, Sullivan discusses the lack of employment available to college graduates. Throughout the essay, testimonials are given by four college graduates who expected more opportunity when they graduated with a four year degree. I sympathize with these men and women who are working in jobs that do promote their ability.
Most university students feel the necessity of working since they would like to have their own money in order to be independent from their parents. It is not the exception for International students because they also feel the necessity of working to be independent from their parents or whoever is responsible for them. However, for international students to work in the United States it is very difficult because they are only allowed to work on campus. These kinds of jobs are very limited since some of the campuses in which they study are very small. Also for an international student to find a job on campus is difficult because people prefer to employee an American student who is not going to have any problem speaking the language. For example, last semester a friend from Venezuela who is studying at Miami Dade College decided that he wanted to get a job in order to have his own money. He went to
By having a job a teenager can save up for college, to buy a car, to buy a stereo, etc. Teenagers feel 'free' when they have a job: they can spend their own money on whatever they want without feeling guilty. In addition to helping his family, having a job at an early age can help for future jobs.
College doesn’t guarantee employment that's why it might be hard to decide rather college is worth it now .There are numerous college grads without a job they have to settle for a job that is unrelated to their degree or simply be without a job. According to Purdon,Nick states “Since graduating last year,I have applied for 250 engineering jobs but only had four interviews but no job offer ,(Purdon 1).The unemployment rate for recent college graduates has remained stuck around 9%.That's alarming it has been stuck .Recent college graduates has been finding it hard to get a job they have been putting application after application may even have some great references but still don't receive the job
Money is an important component that can help ones to function properly in this society. However, money defines our self-worth and value in this society. For decades, unemployment has become a big issue in our community. The younger generation are the one who suffers the most from the crisis.
