Now she is working hard at her job, but she doesn not believe with her qualifications she could get hired here.

  1. When you say Here, I supposed you're thinking about the USA? (My here is in Quebec).

    I'm pretty sure that unless your friend has a work permit, she'll still have a hard tine finding a job in the USA.

    V.


  2. It depends on where her Master's Degree is from and how it compares to that of a degree in the US. I mean I am sure she could get some kind of job, but who knows if it would be any good. It all depends on the circumstance I suppose. Good luck

  3. if she can only speak without reading and writing she will never get any job related to languages...

    as for a street cleaner position -- the amount of languages spoken doesn't really matter

    :P

    Language levels should be proved by Language exams certificates... phrases like "i can speak it fluently" mean really nothing

    :)

  4. consult a vocational counselor, high degrees are not always corollary to high paying employment

  5. If she has no other marketable skills or credentials, she probably should try to be a translator or bi-lingual customer service or marketing.  There is a big demand now for people bi-lingual in both English and Spanish in US.
