IELTS Writing Task 1

The pie chart shows what anthropology undergraduate students did after graduation. Besides, the table provides information regarding the salaries of these anthropologists five years after completing their undergraduate studies.

According to the chart, half of the students were employed as full-time workers while only the 15% opted for a part-time job. Only the 8% of them decided to undertake full-time postgraduate studies while a smaller share of these students chose to either work part-time or continue their academic career. Instead, a considerable share of students, around 12%, decided neither to work nor study and therefore they are unemployed.

The table shows that anthropologists were employed by both public and private sector companies. Moreover, they also work as freelancer. The most remunerative jobs seem to be the ones for the government and as freelance consultants. In fact, just the 20% of the anthropologists employed by these two sectors lie in the $25,000-$74,999 bracket against the 45% of the workers of private companies. Besides, the share of anthropology graduates earning $100,000 is greater for government workers and freelancer, respectively 50% and 40%.
