My Future Profession. Leaving school is the beginning of your independent life, the beginning of a far more serious examination of your abilities and character.

Leaving school is the beginning of your independent life, the beginning of a far more serious examination of your abilities and character.

It is difficult to make up your mind and choose one of the hundreds jobs. You ask a lot of questions yourself to make the right choice: what sort of life do you want to lead? For example, do you want to live in the country or in town? Is leisure time of great importance to you? Is the size of your salary important? What sort of work do you want to do? For example, do you like working alone or with others? Do you want to be an organizer of other people's activities?

As for me, I have made up my mind to be a manager. My choice of this occupation didn't come as a sudden flash. I think that nowadays this profession is of great need and importance to our country. It is my aim to be a qualified specialist and to serve the interests of my country. To be a well-prepared manager I should have some important qualities: great persistence, sociability, considerable knowledge, and, of course, knowledge of foreign languages.

That is why I have entered my University. I think that I can get good knowledge and become a good specialist. And of course I want to learn languages better, because to my mind every educated person should know a foreign language. I always remember these famous words: «He, who doesn’t know a foreign language, doesn’t know his own language».
