語言相關工作 在 [建議] 喜歡語言有什麼發展性較好的工作? - 看板CareerPlan 的推薦與評價
大家好，
敝人就讀貓大國考系，輔修韓文
之前準備了ㄧ下公職越準備越覺得這不是我要的人生，內心ㄧ直有想出國的聲音，故放棄
(其實上必修時就不太有興趣...)
後來因緣既會下順利申請到美國交換
持續加強英文 自認為英文還可以(跟外國人溝通順暢)
其他語言還有很大的進步空間
未來考慮從事語言相關工作，想了ㄧ下有以下幾條路
1.公司負責翻譯事宜(但好像很少職位是只負責翻譯 似乎需相關背景?)
2.澳洲打工旅遊，聽說英文好有加分，但辦公室相關工作似乎可遇不可求
3.法國打工旅遊，還在持續加強法文中，但不確定在法國能找什麼樣的工作
4.華語文教學，似乎需要考華研所，不過我只對幫忙改中文文章比較有興趣，教學還好
主要是想請教大家哪些工作是語言相關的，從事該工作需要如何進修及人格特質，對未來
感到茫然，謝謝!
