Knowing the world’s two most-spoken languages can make you twice as important to employers

★ 通晓世界上两种最通俗的语言，可以让你备受雇主重视 ★

Foreign language skills give you an edge in today’s job market. Proficiency in English and Chinese is an especially desirable combination. English and Chinese are the two most-spoken languages in the world.

Many Western companies continue to expand rapidly into Chinese-speaking regions of Asia. At the same time, Chinese-speaking companies are increasing their presence in the West. As a result, both Western and Asian companies need Chinese-speaking workers who have strong English skills. Some local employers, such as Taiwan-based computer company Acer, have even made English their official company language.

外语能力让你在现在的求职市场佔有优势。精通英文及中文是特别理想的组合，它们是世界上使用最多的两种语言。在亚洲使用中文的地区裡，许多西方企业持续且迅速地开疆拓土。而同时，华语企业也逐渐打进西方市场。因此，西方和亚洲企业都需要英文能力强的华籍员工。有些本土雇主，例如总部设在台湾的宏碁电脑公司，甚至把英文当作他们正式的公司语言。
