Hridhima Tyagi, Class IX B
As soon as we enter class IX, planning our career becomes the buzz of the town. Though some career options are as common as the rising of the sun, some new or different career options are also available in our society. I would like to bring the attention to one such option available.
We may all not be good at science, math or commerce and our grades would say so. But there is nothing to get demoralized. If we are good at languages, we may have a bright future ahead.
Knowing foreign languages can help you build your career in the following ways:
1. GAME TRANSLATOR: Companies making games always hire ingame translators so that the game sells globally.
2. FLIGHT ATTENDANT: International airlines specially look for people who can speak different languages to communicate with passengers and make them comfortable.
3. BANKING AND FINANCE: A linguist is always an asset to a company as she can be posted anywhere without trouble.
4. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGER: He is responsible to hire people for the company. A foreign language expert can help the company in getting good officers from around the world.
5. JOURNALISM: Who can be more important for the media industry than a person who can speak many languages? Global coverage is the core of today’s journalism and it requires a linguist.
6. INTERPRETER: The world is becoming a large family. So translating one language to another instantly is the need of the hour. Though translating softwares are available, they can never beat the lively, spontaneous interpreter who can understand the feeling behind the sentence.
