Q&A: Advice for bilingual candidates with a higher level of education

February 9, 2010

Q: I have a Master’s degree in business administration and I’m seeking a bilingual job.  What advice can you offer to help me find the right company who would have competitive salaries to match my level of education?  Vito

A: For those prospective bilingual candidates with a higher degree, I would first recommend a staffing firm advisor, your college/university career advisor or a head hunter who all have great resources and can help guide you in the right direction.  Secondly, you should keep searching on your own for companies that have bilingual positions available in your field until you find the right one that matches your qualifications.  After you’ve found the right company for you, your time, experience, skills and dedication will help you achieve the level of pay you desire.
