Knowing a foreign language is said to open up many opportunities and careers, besides itdevelops writing, communication and problem solving skills. The most common professions, that involve the use of languages are probably translating, interpreting and teaching, and careers in areas such as business and industry and the media.

However, it is important to remember that being able to speak a language fluently is notenough to get a job. Some professions require vocational post-graduate courses or work experience.Of course if a person is business-oriented, he will succeed in making his way up to the top, as careers in business and industry are usually quite well-paid. The professionof an interpreter is also well-paid, high-status and prestigious. And it is not surprising,without translation, understanding and especially communicating is impossible in our multilingual world.

As for me, as a typical language student I still don't know what to do after college. AllI know is that I want to use my language afterwards. The main question is how?

The most important factors for me while choosing a career are: good salary orwages, interesting and varied work, not boring and monotonous work which is useful to society, good working conditions, flexible hours, opportunities to meet people, opportunities to travel long holidays, job security, good career prospects, bossing people, dealing with children, responsibility of my own, working with nice people, getting on with my boss, the chance of promotion …(choose what you need)

That’s why I wouldn't mind working......

- in a travel agency,as I am a kind of person who finds it boring to stay too long in one place. I begin to get itchy feet. And this profession involves travelling, seeing new places, meeting new people. I'm very much into travelling and enjoy taking challenges, besides it would help me to update my knowledge of languages.

- as a teacher, because the feeling of job satisfaction is the greatest in this profession, besides teaching is a very valuable and challenging profession that demands from a teacher complete dedication, love of the subject and lots of enthusiasm. However teaching is regarded in many societies as low status and so is badly paid.

- in advertising

- as a sales manager

- as a personnel manager

- as a journalist

- as a specialist in public relations

- for the Foreign Office/diplomatic service

- in charge of a firm

But I understand that such kind of work requires:

- an incredible responsibility

- a good qualification

- a rich imagination

- an attractive appearance

- a fine sense of humour

- a good memory

- a refined taste

- creativity

- strength of body

- stamina

- a quick mind

- tolerance self-discipline

- self-confidence

- full commitment

- special skills (administrative, managerial, communicative)

- leadership qualities

And as I lack such qualities as.........I'm not sure I'll succeed in this career.

But at the same time I am...

- a person of great creativity

- a strong-willed person

- a person with positive outlook/ a great deal of charm/a kind heart/literary talent

That's why I am trying to keep up my aspirations, besides I have a desire to learn and succeed, so everything will come out right for me. There are so many options open today, so many alternatives to pick from, so many possibilities from which to choose But you have to ask yourself what is more important to you - job satisfaction or money. It’s perfect when these two are combined but sometimes it doesn't come out like this. Therefore I think that when you are choosing a career you have to have some realistic expectations.
