Theo một số ước tính, 30% sinh viên đại học thay đổi chuyên ngành ít nhất một lần. Vậy, sinh viên nên làm gì khi (1) quyết định theo đuổi chuyên ngành nào tại trường đại học?
(2) Một cách để tăng khả năng chọn đúng chuyên ngành đại học là kết hợp nó với lựa chọn nghề nghiệp tương lai của bạn.

Sinh viên đại học đôi khi bỏ học chuyên ngành đã chọn (4) vì họ trở nên vỡ mộng với lĩnh vực chuyên môn mà họ đã chọn. Để tránh kết quả này, điều quan trọng là bạn phải nghiên cứu về công việc mà bạn quan tâm theo đuổi, cũng như bất kỳ hướng đi nghề nghiệp nào có liên quan. Hãy tự hỏi bản thân xem bạn có thể thấy mình thích những khía cạnh nào của công việc và những phần nào của công việc mà bạn nghĩ rằng mình có thể không thích.
Những sinh viên đứng đầu lớp có thể đặc biệt sốc khi nhận được điểm thấp đầu tiên trong kỳ thi. Phản hồi tiêu cực từ cố vấn và giảng viên đại học cũng có thể ảnh hưởng đến quyết định chuyển ngành của sinh viên. (5) Khi đối mặt với những thất bại này, hãy kiên định và xem xét lại lý do khiến bạn chọn ngành ngay từ đầu. Quan trọng hơn, hãy chuẩn bị cho những thách thức học thuật không thể tránh khỏi đang chờ bạn ở bất kỳ ngành nào bạn chọn.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
It is not easy to choose a career today. Hundreds of students are leaving schools and universities every year to seek employment in the various professions, though employment opportunities are not increasing proportionately. As a result, there is a lot of unemployment.
The inability of the various professions to absorb all those seeking employment makes the choice of a career more difficult. Before one leaves school or university, one has many plans, confident that choosing a career will not be difficult. But when, the time comes to choose a career, one finds that there are others with better qualifications waiting to enter the same profession. Disillusioned, one then looks for any kind of employment. In this way, many who wanted to become police inspectors or field assistants in the rubber estates in this country, become teachers instead, and many who wanted to become teachers, have become shop assistants. The lack of institutions where people could acquire the skills necessary for a particular career makes the choice of a career even more difficult. For example, if one desires to become a journalist, one has to receive some training and instruction in a school of journalism. But if there is no such school, one is compelled to think of some other career.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Although I left university with a good degree, I suddenly found that it was actually quite hard to find a job. After being unemployed for a few months, I realized I had to take the first thing that came along or I'd be in serious financial difficulties. And so, for six very long months, I became a market research telephone interviewer.
I knew it wasn't the best company in the world when they told me that I'd have to undergo three days of training before starting work, and that I wouldn't get paid for any of it. Still, I knew that the hourly rate when I actually did start full time would be a lot better than unemployment benefit, and I could work up to twelve hours a day, seven days a week if I wanted. So, I thought of the money I'd earn and put up with three days of unpaid training. Whatever those three days taught me - and I can't really remember anything about them today - I wasn't prepared for the way I would be treated by the supervisors.
It was worse than being at school. There were about twenty interviewers like myself, each sitting in a small, dark booth with an ancient computer and a dirty telephone. The booths were around the walls of the fifth floor of a concrete office block, and the supervisors sat in the middle of the room, listening in to all of our telephone interviews. We weren't allowed to talk to each other, and if we took more than about two seconds from ending one phone call and starting another, they would shout at us to hurry up and get on with our jobs. We even had to ask for permission to go to the toilet. I was amazed how slowly the day went. Our first break of the day came at eleven o'clock, two hours after we started. I'll always remember that feeling of despair when I would look at my watch thinking, 'It's must be nearly time for the break', only to find that it was quarter to ten and that there was another hour and a quarter to go. My next thought was always, 'I can't believe I'm going to be here until nine o'clock tonight.'
The most frightening aspect of the job was that I was actually quite good at it. 'Oh, no!' I thought.
‘Maybe I'm destined to be a market researcher for the rest of my life.' My boss certainly seemed to think so. One day - during a break, of course - she ordered me into her office. 'Simon,' she said, 'I'm promoting you. From tomorrow, you're off telecoms and onto credit card complaints. I'm sure you can handle it. There's no extra pay, but it is a very responsible position.'
Three weeks later, I quit. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Q&A with a career adviser
(Hỏi đáp với người cố vấn nghề nghiệp)
1. Listen and read.
(Nghe và đọc.)
Mr Kien: ... So, I've talked to you about future job opportunities. I hope you'll continue to keep up with the rapid changes in the job market. Have you got any questions?
Nam: Yes, do you think we need to have a university degree to pursue a career?
Mr Kien: Well, it depends on the industry and the field of work that you're interested in. There're many jobs that don't require a university degree. For example, you may consider becoming a flight attendant, car mechanic, or repair worker.
Nam: But how do you get a job without a degree or any experience? Employers look down on job applicants without a university degree.
Mr Kien: No, they don't. You need to show that you're hard-working and willing to learn. Many companies hire school-leavers and provide on-the-job training.
Mai: So, when do you think we should start thinking about our careers?
Mr Kien: Well, the sooner, the better. However, the best time is when you start senior secondary school.
Mai: I read that AI will replace many workers in the future. How do I make sure that the job I choose won't be taken over by a robot?
Mr Kien: That's a good question. Many factory jobs and jobs in customer service have already become automated. As AI continues to develop, more human employees may be replaced. That's why It's important to choose jobs that involve a high level of human interaction, critical thinking, and decision-making.
Nam: So, are these the most important job skills we'll need in the future?
Mr Kien: That's right! No matter what career you may consider, you'll need these skills. Good communication and teamwork will always be in demand. These soft skills will help you adapt to changes and come up with solutions to challenging problems.
Nam: Thank you very much for your answers.
