Hello! I'm curious as to what jobs are available for someone learning languages (Japanese, Spanish, French, Esperanto), business practices, and computer programming. Preferably a career with a decent salary and what companies are available with said positions. Also what degrees (if any) are needed that can help me. Also would any business help pay for tuition or would it be just an apprenticeship? Any to all advice, information, reccomendations, etc. will be helpful.

You could teach english in another country if your language skills are good enough.
A friend of mine was a japanese major in college and recently got his dream job teaching middle schoolers in japan english...Which sounds like he's a dirty perv, but, I swear he's not. :lol:

You can also do international work for the government too. There are "English for the non native speaker" classes that some colleges tech as well. You can also teach languages in the US to people that want to learn them. My cousin is doing something with the CIA where she has to use Italian. I found things to use my degrees with over Google.

Anyone else out there with any advice/answers/suggestions/etc.?

Being a translator for any kind of company can be very profitable. Teaching doesn't pay well, so I wouldn't recommend it if you can find something else. The advantage of being a translator is that many companies won't require a degree so long as you can prove that you know the languages you claim to. Find some one of those international comapnies looking for someone to translate for them. They may even have you travel for them.

Look into companies like (but not limited to) Google, HP, Microsoft, etc.

I've seen a number of job postings out there for people fluent in more than one language. Anyhow, a trnaslator job for a company is going to pay better than working for the government or teaching.

You could take linguistics. I have a friend whose in school right now for it, and what he plans to do is to work with members of certain languages whose languages have not been transcribed into the universal phonetical alphabet (such as isolated tribal groups). So you can do that, which should prove to be interesting. :)

Hmm, I'd say it depends which talent of yours you'd want to work with the most. :)

If you really want to work with languages, then I'd suggest what everyone else here suggested.

If you want to work with programming, then what you could do is work with a major international computer/software company. Something that might have different branches in other countries would be great, too, so you could practice your languages there.

Basically, any computer job makes a great salary. For example, I plan on being a software engineer which can make around $50,000 - $80,000. Computer programmers usually make $40,000 - $60,000. As for the companies, I'd say look around. Google it; that's what I do. :XD

Don't listen to the people who say teaching doesn't pay :/
Teachers have the best union out there, and retire at like 50. Get your masters, and then even teaching at highschool level you'd be getting slight-mint with your summers off. This can also mean that you can do your undergraduate degree in whatever you want to do, and it means you can afford to find out if you're prepared to have the life of an academic or not. If you're interested in post-secondary teaching, you'll need at least a masters degree, and you'll probably need a PhD. To get a masters anywhere in the commonwealth, you need an honors degree. Each university has a different honours program, but at mine, you need to write a 50-60 page dissertation with help from a professor you're assigned to who shares your interests.

Don't let other people limit your interests. The most important thing is that you become educated. The more education you get, the more highly paid job you can get. You can get fellowships and scholarships if your grades are good and you continue to contribute to your CV, which will ultimately lead to a highpaying job in any field.
