Problem and Solution
Today, in this competitive world when many new ideas are evolving every day. It is essential for everybody to be competent with communication as well as presentation skill. I agree that our current generation lacks these skills and to ensure that our future generation is strong with these must skills, we should start giving training from the school itself. This essay will assert few points justifying why speaking and presenting are very important skills for anybody to grow professionally. The profession could be any like a manager in IT company or product company, politician, scientist at NASA, or a individual contributor in any project, in every day of professional life, you have to prepare a presentation and speak to your manager or supervisor to elaborate your ideas. If you lack in any of these skills, you will face problem in convincing people to follow your thoughts. It is very hard to become representative of company or a town or a country without having good communication skill. Even, these skills are so important that almost all employers conduct group discussions before hiring a candidate. Then, the important question is how to become expert with these skills? We learn many of our behaviours or skills either from parents or training institute. Without any doubt, parents are the initial teacher for any kids. Kids learn talking and good behaviors from parents. Once they are grown up and start going to school, responsibility partially shifts from parents to school as kids mingle with many other students in school and participate in many activities like speech competition, annual functions, exhibitions etc. So, the school should add special scheduled training to let students learn and practice presentation and speaking skills in public. To conclude, speaking and presenting in public are essential skills for all to progress in professional life and school should give special attention to make their students far away from stage fear or presenting in public.

Opinion
The contentious argument that whether organizations can solicit personal information from job seekers in an employment application has sparked a heated debate among many. In this essay, I will illustrate the merits and demerits of such practice by employers and then provide my own opinion. On the one hand, there are benefits to organizations in acquiring information about a prospective employee, including his hobbies, marital status, et cetera. The primary advantage is that the multinational corporations can gauge whether an applicant is a best-fit or not for a vacancy by asking for his or her personal data. For instance, a position that requires travelling frequently to various metropolitan cities in the world will not be a good-fit for married people because of their marital commitment. In addition, an organization can increase its employee retention rate by enquiring about a potential hire’s hobbies and interests. For example, a financial analyst who is fond of latest gadgets would be excited to work for a high tech corporation rather than another applicant who despises an advanced device. On the other hand, there are some cons in employers seeking personal information from job applicants. First of all, an organization may inadvertently drive away the best qualified candidate who has privacy concerns by asking for one’s hobbies, interests, marital status, et cetera. Moreover, some employers may resort to discriminatory practices by selecting potential hires based on their personal preferences. For instance, an interviewer who despises a game of cricket may overlook an applicant whose passion is to play with a bat and ball. Having considered a range of arguments, I firmly believe that the merits of an organization seeking personal information from job candidates outweigh the drawbacks; employers can match applicants to the vacancies and increase employee retention rates.

Rishabh Varma Rishabh Varma, A Number's Person / Newbie @ Data Science Answered Jan 23, 2017 · Author has 124 answers and 290k answer views There are 2 Types of IELTS students who are concerned with the Examination process: One who really struggles with the day-to-day usage of English. One who wants to score Higher Bands for their very benefits in Work permits and college admissions. Writing: I cannot give much detail on how to prepare for the Writing part (I scored 7 Myself). Letter writing (General Module) or the Data Analysis (Academic module) carries less weightage, so concentrate more on the Essay Writing part. All I can say is that stick to the basic structure of Essay writing. Para 1: Reinstate the topic and take your stand on it. For the rest of the Essay, you can either say FOR the topic or AGAINST the topic. This part is important as you should have enough Data to speak for in the remaining essay. Para 2-3-4: Take 1 example in each Para and give details explanation of the same. Para 5: Mention the counter side of the argument I.e If you have been saying FOR the topic up till now, give 1 example of AGAINST part. But make sure that you indirectly take your discussion to what you have been saying up till now. (Example: You have said that eating Tomatoes is good for health. NOW in the 5th Para you need to discuss one drawback of the consumption of tomatoes, but sway the discussion towards how the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.) This will give strong signal to the examiner that you are completely aware of what you are talking about and that you are Afraid to take the Counter Examples. Para 6: Just summarize the entire discussion and give concluding sentence. DON'T add new details in the conclusion Para. It's a Red Cross. GRAMMER: You need to polish your grammer skills. It need not be at a high level though. You should provide a fer Complex Structured sentences every now and then. One such complex structure should consist: Verbs Nouns-Pronouns Subject-verb agreement Modifiers Idioms Parallelism Tenses SAMPLE ESSAY: Do look at the sample essays but do not panic looking at the language. Try and structure the sample in your own way. Those samples are 8.5 Bands and Indians usually get the least in the Writing Section. Speaking: If you are planning to take Classes for improving your communication skills, Please don't. Fluency comes from Practice. You need to work with the English language at least 3 months prior to your Exam date, if you are really struggling with the language. I will try and provide tips as I discuss the Different stages of this section. Section 1: This is an intro section. The interviewer will ask you about yourself and few details of things that matter to you or are related to your life. You will find tons of sample question for this section in the Internet. Topics range from: Hobby to Family to Education to Job to Flowers. You need to speak on any given topic whether related to you or not. Section 2: Cue Card. Again sample available. Make sure that you speak for at least 90 sec. Also you need to keep in mind that the Third Section is somehow related to what you say in this section. So do not exaggerate on things that you will find hard to explain in Third Section. Important thing here is speak for the complete length and make sense at the same time. PRACTICE: It won't take more than 30 mins per day to practice a range of topics. So make sure that you practice enough questions to be Exam Ready. I practiced a lot but on the exam day got topics that were completely different. The key for me way the fluency that I was able to achieve during practice and even though I was short of Ideas on the D-Day, it went well for me. There is no Written rule as to what you need to get 7 as the Interviewer is different and questions are random. Just practice and gain enough info on different topics and you will surely ace the Examination. I hope I was of some help. I hate diplomatic answers myself, but cannot help you here with anything else. Best of Luck!
