Societal Shifts: Employment, Digital Habits, and Cultural Importance

Modern Challenges in the Labor Market

The Qualification vs. Experience Paradox

Nowadays, many people possess high qualifications, often holding multiple university degrees. However, companies frequently prioritize candidates with more experience over those with high qualifications. I believe this creates a significant barrier to entering the current labor market.

On the one hand, if no one gives you an opportunity to work, you cannot gain any experience. Therefore, I believe that employers should be willing to hire people who have strong qualifications, even if their professional experience is limited.

For this reason, I think that the labor market should be changed and expanded because a lot of qualified people have to go abroad to look for a job related to their profession. This reminds me of some years ago when our grandparents had to emigrate to another country to secure employment.

In conclusion, I believe that companies often demand a lot from employees for a relatively low salary.

The Impact of Technology on Young People

Digital Dependence and Social Isolation

Nowadays, the majority of young people have computers at home, and they use them for various purposes such as entertainment or work.

However, few people use the computer primarily for their studies. Instead, a large number of young people play video games or use the internet mainly for chatting. In my opinion, this can lead to a negative addiction because they often do not maintain face-to-face contact with others; their communication is solely via the internet.

Another problem is that children often do not play sports outdoors or engage with traditional toys because they spend their time playing with game consoles, such as:

• X-Box
• PlayStation
• Wii

As a result, these children and young people tend to become more dependent and less sociable.

In conclusion, I think the computer should be used primarily for necessary things, such as academic studies.

The Essential Role of Music in Daily Life

Music for Emotional Well-being and Development

Nowadays, music is an important part of our life. There are many different kinds of music; for me, the best genre of music is Pop, and my favorite singer is David Bisbal.

When I listen to David Bisbal, I forget all my problems, and it helps me relax and enjoy myself, for example, when I am driving. Sometimes, the lyrics of songs help me remember my girlfriend during many special occasions.

On the other hand, I believe that music should always be included in the school curriculum because it develops children’s brains. As a result, they will have more creativity, which is essential for many activities.
