What to do with a degree in modern languages

Whether it's l'addition, la cuenta or il conto, it remains a sad fact that most Britons' grasp of foreign languages is limited to the subtleties of settling the bill on holiday.

French is no longer even in the top 10 GCSE subjects, which is a crying shame because a world of fascinating employment opportunities awaits talented linguists with an eye for adventure, both within these shores and beyond.
