[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious: 1. Which languages would work well for a career with the State Dept? I have a neighbor who is first year college working on Chinese and Econ with hopes of going to the State Dept. She is not a native Chinese speaker (just learning it for the first time in college), but she is 1/2 Korean! Will studying a language (seriously) in college be enough to get into the State Dept.? 2. 11:33 or others with insight -- what do you think of Arabic? Still recommend Spanish over Arabic? We don't have access to elem. programs in Arabic, but we do have access to MS/HS level classes. [/quote] ArBic is useful but hard. Setting yoyr sights on a single emploer in your first year of college is a disaster. The state dept is not as glamorous as people imagine.[/quote]
