IELTS Speaking 2017 Questions # Work

Part I of the IELTS speaking section is where you get asked questions related to work or home or anything that is about you. This time let us have a look at the latest questions asked in the IELTS Part I of the speaking section.

Tell me something about your work.

I work at an Indian MNC as a software engineer. Our organisation has different streams in which one can work on. I am part of the DNA i.e. the data and analytics team. So, my work requires me to write queries and procedures for handling data and analysing it. Recently, we did an analysis to find the trend of data and helped our customers in selling their products.

What do you do at work?

Our company offers lot of extra curricular activities along with work. So, for my project, I am working on Hadoop and Oracle. For most part, we are either setting up replications or writing codes to make sure that we are able to deal with data in a better way. The amazing part about data is that it is dynamic. So, we consider one thing and write a code but then data changes and we have to make changes. Our main task is to make sure that there are less of changes required.

What do you usually do after work?

When I am not working, I either attend the toastmasters sessions or do something about a club that I recently joined. The club is about handling the employee grievances. Back at home, I usually read a novel or write blogs.

What do you take with you when you go out?

I think I always take some money with me when I am out. It could be as less as 10 bucks but I make sure I do have some money with me. Also, I ensure that I have my specs and a pen with me.

Are the things that you take with you always the same when you go out?

The basics i.e. a pen, some money and my specs, well they are common all throughout. But, other things do vary. So, sometimes I carry a book as well or my ATM or my makeup things depending on the place I am going to.
