IELTS Writing Task 2

These days, people work in more than one job, and often change career several times during their life. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this?

These days, many people have more than one occupation, and also often change their careers several times during their life. In this essay, I would like to discuss both the pros and cons of having more than one job or changing careers.

I would like to start by looking at the advantages of this matter. First of all, having more than one job could help people earn more money other than their main job. It would also provide them with different experience in each field of the job. Some people may also have many interests and may wish to pursue many jobs at once. Changing a career a number of times during his or her lifetime can also have the same benefits, along with giving workers a better occupation when the worker feels that his or her no longer wants continue with the career because of specific reasons.

On the other hand, changing careers too many times could cause quite some difficulties, such as financial ones. Career changing could also make it hard to settle down with a satisfactory job. Having too many jobs at the same time could also be very stressful. It would be hard to divide your time between each job, and the work in each job could also put too much pressure on the worker.

To summarize, having more than one career or changing careers several times during your lifetime have quite a number of benefits, for instance, earning more money, pursuing your dreams or experience a better working environment. However, it also has its downsides, such as financial problems, settling down or too much stress.
