You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Some say that young and energetic employees are the most valuable for the company, others argue that older employees have more experience and knowledge. What is your opinion on that issue? Which viewpoint do you support? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.

You should write at least 250 words.

Sample Answer 1:


Which benefits your organisation more, having more experienced staffs or a group of young and fresh employees? There is no common agreement to answer this question because different people think differently about this topic. Some people believe that elderly staff’s experience outweighs young employee’s eagerness and energy and the rest have opposite point of view. I personally believe a suitable combination of young and experienced employees would work best for every single company.

Older employees are valuable assets for financial organisations as they have many years of experience behind them. Consequently, they own a great knowledge about the company and nature of the work. As a result, they can offer good solutions in tight situations as in many cases they have had the similar experience before. For instance, they can foresee the bottlenecks and potential problems better than young staffs. However, most of them usually become outdated gradually as they gradually become less willing to update their knowledge.

In contrast with the older staffs, younger employees usually are very energetic and have an updated knowledge about their field of work. To say more, they are usually more creative in solving the problems, eager to learn more and have a great effort in the work. Although these are all very beneficial for every company, their lack of experience may suffer them as well.

To conclude, according to my experience as a software developer, a good mixture of young and experienced employees will have the best effects in the companies. The experience of elderly in combination with youth energy and passion make the teams more efficient and the companies more productive.

Sample Answer 2:


It is essential for a company to be equipped with employees who can positively contribute to its business. Some argue that more young people should be recruited to achieve this goal while others insist on fulfilling the same task by employing older counterparts. However, it is felt that a desirable position to demonstrate the question is to differentiate what each age group is good at, and how they can bring values to a company.

Young employees’ physical strength and creativity can bring fresh perspectives to an organisation. Older people are usually conservative in terms of exploring innovative pathways or unfamiliar changes. Young people are however always eager to gain new experiences and this often helps firms generate ground-breaking ideas. For example, the marketing company I work for usually relies on university graduates’ brainstorming process when attempting to roll out new products. Their imaginative thoughts and inexhaustible trials have indeed supported the company to create many unique products.

On the other hand, the experienced and qualified intellectual properties possessed by older workers are equivalently crucial for a company’s success. In fact, as is the case with my father’s company, the organisation prefers to hire mature aged workers than younger ones. This is mainly because of their belief that one’s ability to manage unexpected situations, such as safety issues or important business decisions usually come from long years of working.

In conclusion, the aforementioned ideas clearly substantiate that both young and older employees are equally able to contribute to a company’s future.
