The specialization of jobs in our society today and brought out some consequences of this trend. Do you believe jobs are becoming more specialized? Give some examples either way to justify you position and if so is this a good or bad thing?
Yes, specialization of jobs in our society is taking place and indeed it is affecting the education system as well. As a consequence many companies these days are not being an equal opportunity employer and not hiring people if he or she don’t have a proper specification in that domain area. This creates a limitation of the scope of jobs available.
It is not the good things as it will affect the students, professionals in many ways
This is a bad thing and it affects the lives of millions. For example, a salesperson who has amazing sales skills used to be a sales guy in an FMCG company gets a denial for the sales job in a Publishing house on the ground that he used to sell FMCG product. This is bad and should not be the case. A salesperson is a salesperson and he can sell a thread to a car to anybody.
