Shadow · Answer

Well, let’s start with (a). What are some of the benefits?

mplatt · Answer

The entry-level pay is low, but there are many opportunities within the company. The employer tells you that the company prefers to "promote from within," or fill vacant jobs by promoting people who already work at the company.

Shadow · Answer

Yes, cut out low pay, then write what is left in your own words.

Shadow · Answer

You could sum it up in a simple sentence ‘they give opportunities to advance’

mplatt · Answer

ok ill put that down

mplatt · Answer

ok next is the monetary costs.

Shadow · Answer

It doesn’t say you need to list all of the benefits, but it does say ‘benefits’ (plural) so you should do multiple. There are a couple of obvious ones. Like for most people, the negative part about a job is the commute, or travel. Or it’s friendliness of their coworkers. What does this section have to say about those topics?

"The building is a short bus ride, bike ride, or walk from where you live."

A lot better than a long drive/bike/walk/run.

Shadow · Answer

" The people at the office are friendly and helpful, and the whole office has a casual atmosphere."

A lot better than rude people at the office, that are not helpful, and a stressful atmosphere with intensity.

Shadow · Answer

Mhm. I took the AP Psychology exam along with the rest of the nation yesterday. Some of the free response questions required you to relate it to the real world, similar to this, so I know what you mean.
