大家知道商务英语吗?哪些工作需要考商务英语?很多同学高考前就想过以后要选什么专业,我们老师曾说过高考不是最难的,填志愿才是最让人头疼的。当时我不以为然,认为就是和成绩有关。到了真正的填志愿的时候,我慌了,老师讲怎么填志愿也听不懂,有些同学可以指导怎么在第一志愿不录取的情况下其他志愿学校会录取,而我只在想着只确保第一志愿会录取。填志愿首先看兴趣喜好,如果你的成绩跟不上你喜欢的志愿或你喜欢的学校,那就只能选择其他的了。我们那时候知道的专业无非就是英语、数学、文学、计算机等。选了专业要考虑这个专业以后的就业如何,下面我将介绍商务英语的就业和一些和商务英语相关的知识。

三、商务英语的就业前景
商务英语的就业前景还是可以的,主要有以下方向:
1、外贸、贸易类公司
主要职位:单证员、业务员、跟单员、国际商务师等
商务英语专业的小伙伴们进入外企或中外合资企业有得天独厚的优势,因为外企或中外合资企业对外语水平的要求很高,而且工作语言多为英语,因此咱们可进入外企或外贸公司做许多市场、公关、人事和销售等非技术类岗位的工作。
2、外企、翻译公司、出版社
主要职位:翻译、编辑等
各大涉外企业、外贸公司、翻译公司及出版社等单位都需要大量从事翻译、编辑工作的专职人员,喜爱翻译或编辑的小伙伴们可以选择这类工作,这也是商务英语专业的前辈们主要选择的就业方向。
3、中小学、培训机构
主要职位:英语教师、双语教师等
教师一直是语言类专业较为传统的就业方向,也是一份比较稳定的职业。做英语或双语教师,咱们可选的就业单位有公办学校、民办学校和教育培训机构。
四、商务英语口语快速提高方法
大家平时除了在课堂上和老师练习口语,还可以找一个专业的外教进行练习,这还是很有必要的。分享一下我在用的app:留小留,可以随时和世界各地的Native Speaker进行一对一的口语对练,里面有很多专业的外教可以选择,而且还有前高级考官,强烈建议考试前跟考官模拟测试一下。这个软件用起来就跟打微信语音/视频电话一样,质量很清晰。这个是最让我感到意外且性价比超级高的一个APP了。我长期练习的一个外教陪练是英国的Leila,她不仅口音纯正,而且人超级nice,她本人还是一个摄影师,我也经常跟她交流摄影方面的技巧。
不过大家平常跟外国人练习口语的时候,我有2个建议:1.是提前准备一个话题,带着话题去跟他们练习能让你学到很多地道的表达;2.是不一定非要选择欧美的老外,像有些南非、菲律宾的也很专业,练习口语也不错。
