Collaborative task
Now I'd like you to imagine that a careers service is preparing a talk for people who are about to choose a career. Here are some of the factors it plans to raise.
How far should these factors influence the career someone chooses?
how secure the work is
the chance to go on learning
the impact the work has on other people
how well it pays
how much freedom it allows
How this works
In the exam you get about 15 seconds to look at the task — here, take your time. You’ll discuss the ideas for 2:00, then get 1:00 to make a decision together. Don’t try to cover every idea — a good discussion goes deeper on a few of them.
