If I become fluent in Mandarin Chinese-does that open up any job opportunities for me?

Question

English is my native tongue.

Answer 1

Yes, knowledge of a Chinese language can enhance your employment chances. However, you have to find the right employer that needs your language skill. Including the language in your resume is a big help with companies that do business in China.

Answer 2
