One of the most important skills in today's increasingly globalized economy is the ability to communicate in another language. Often, employers don't list that skill as a requirement or even preference and yet are far more likely to hire the candidate with that skill set if aware of it. Experts explain that these skills demonstrate initiative, cultural sensitivity, and a well-rounded personality, making candidates stand out. Even if a job doesn't explicitly require a specific language, possessing such skills signals valuable attributes to employers.  Our cohosts encourage candidates to highlight their language abilities on resumes and in interviews but to honestly assess their proficiency level. It's not about being perfect. It's about being willing to try, willing to learn, and willing to use all of your skills to make yourself as productive as possible for your next employer.
