IELTS Speaking Part 2
Describe a large company that you are interested in (work)
You should say:
- What it is
- What kind of business it does
- How you knew about it
And explain how you feel about it
Sample Answer
Among all well-acclaimed companies around the world, there is one that I am particularly interested in, which is Tesla. It goes without saying that the company’s products are not too ubiquitous in my country, but I must say I have always dreamt of owning one.
As a student majoring in Business, I used to do extensive research on multiple organizations as this is one of the compulsory tasks that I have to do. And I have to admit, I have always chosen Tesla due to its impeccable quality and smart marketing strategy.
Tesla is basically a large corporation based in the US, which primarily manufactures high-end electric cars. As the name suggests, the company aims to produce vehicles that run on electricity, which is 100% environmentally-friendly. This is one of the main reasons why I am so fascinated by the company itself because I am extremely environmentally-conscious, I must say.
It might sound strange for a girl like me to choose a company which produces cars, not to mention its great scarcity in the Vietnam’s market. However, I suppose I became interested in the company through its CEO – the world’s richest man alive. I just simply admire his vision, commitment and guts to have founded such a large corporation like Tesla. He is an absolute perfectionist, in my opinion. He is extremely strong-willed and thick-skinned, as I once heard that he can easily fire the staff who do not come up to his expectations.
Overall, I love and admire Tesla and its CEO; and I strongly believe that the company will continue to thrive in the future.
IELTS Speaking Part 3
1. Do you want to work for a large company?
Just like most of my friends, I long to work for a large corporation. I think the main reason for its popularity is its glamor and reputation. I guess there is a common belief that working in a big company would enable people to expand their networking, get some career development opportunities or learn from the best, you name it.
2. What are the biggest companies in Vietnam? What kinds of industry they belong?
Well, I must say that Vietnam has for itself an array of large companies, so I guess it might take days to name all of them. However, I assume that among all, Vingroup shines above the rest. Vingroup is one of the biggest multi-industry corporations here, as it majors in multiple fields, from retailing, tourism to education. You might easily see a random supermarket named Vinmart on the streets, as Vingroup’s branches are ubiquitous in my country.
3. What are the differences between small and large companies?
As the name suggests, the size of these two companies is basically different from each other. The way I see it, large corporations tend to provide employees with a more professional working environment, greater financial stability and job security. Small ones, on the other hand, have a more limited budget, which hampers them from investing heavily on staff training or prohibitively expensive marketing campaigns.
4. What benefits do large companies bring to its customers?
One of the biggest advantages of large companies compared to its small counterparts is the ability to offer customers good services at an affordable price, which is a much greater choice for a cost-conscious customer base in Vietnam. Plus, thanks to the size and reputation of these companies, customers can generally stay worry-free when buying from them since their brand can be considered as a guarantee of top quality.
