One of the factors that will always offer someone a competitive advantage in any job
market is bilingualism/multilingualism.
From the healthcare sector, to finance and business, employers are looking for people fluent in foreign languages.
A March, 2017 study by the New American Economy (https://www.newamericaneconomy.org/press-release/demand-for- bilingual-workers-more-than-doubled-in-5-years-new-report-shows/), found that the demand for bilingual workers had doubled in the preceding 5 years (note this finding was more than 3 years ago).
This trend continues to date and the demand is only expected to rise.
As a degree holder in Spanish, and a member of the National Hispanic Honor Society,
