Career Scope & Jobs after learning Spanish in India

career opportunities after learning Spanish

Proficiency in Spanish is beneficial nearly almost everywhere and helps you advance.

1. Career as a Spanish Translation and Interpreter

Knowledge of Spanish can help you get the chance to become a translator, interpreter, editor, proofreader, and content writer.

While there are many translation software like Google, Bing, etc., machine translation cannot replace human translation.

There are words with dual meanings in different languages. Thus, what works in one tongue does not necessarily work in another.

Human translators and interpreters are much more reliable and effective, and the ‘personal’ aspect will always beat technology.

That’s why a career as a Spanish translator or interpreter is in high demand. And a job that pays well everywhere.

To be an acknowledged translator or Interpreter in India, you will need near-native proficiency in the target as well as the source language.

It would be best to have a mastery or higher competency, something like C1 of the SIELE or DELE, or a Master’s degree in Spanish.

With experience in translating and transcribing, you can also contemplate the role of specialist translation in various fields like financial, legal, medical, technical, academic, and literary.

In the age of increasing globalization, many Indian and MNC companies are looking for Spanish language experts.

    Hi Sir,

    My name is Keshav and I have a big history of Spanish background. I studied Bachelor and Master’s in Spanish at the English and Foreign Languages University. Later on, I completed my Master’s in Translation, Interpretation, and International Communication at the University of Pablo de Olavide, Sevilla(Spain). Right now, I am working for Oracle Bangalore as a “Senior Language Specialist.”

    However, I have decided to leave the company as the job involves only 10 percent of Spanish and 90 percent of technical stuff. I am very interested in doing Spanish-English or English-Spanish translation, but I cannot trust these companies enough that they will be offered that kind of job. I am also open to teaching. Where do you think I can apply in which I will be able to serve an entity or someone in my area of interest?

    If possible, please reach out to me by mail as well. I really appreciate your guidance

    Thanks,
    Keshav

      This is pretty subjective, and only you can decide. Perhaps, consult a career counselor. For a degree, you can only get a BA, but there is also a part-time non-degree course. You can learn Spanish by enrolling in a private institute also.

      You can learn Spanish online, though it is difficult to achieve a higher level without engaging with a Spanish teacher. Also, Duolingo is only for elementary, not for serious learning. Also, I’d suggest doing MBA later once you get some experience after BBA. This will enhance your career prospects.

    I’m a bit of a language nerd. I like to learn different languages, with their country and culture. I have a knowledge of 4 foreign languages excluding English. Though I’m most fluent in Spanish (I was an exchange student in one of the native-speaking countries), I also like to travel a lot. Currently, I’m a commerce student in my last year of university. I want to study abroad for my future studies so I can learn a different language and its country’s culture with a degree which will land me in a reputed job but I’m confused with which path to choose where I can meet my personality traits. It would be an enormous help if you can advise me as to which career path will be most beneficial for me.

          There isn’t any combination that is more beneficial at the UG level. It plays a more vital role at PG. Choose as per your career goal or something that interests you. To work as a full-time Spanish specialist, you only need Spanish, and other skills may or may matter a lot, depending on your job profile. In fact, regardless of your choices, you can still make a full-fledged career in Spanish. But, if your goal is something other than Spanish, focus on that.

      C1 and C2 are advanced levels that open various specialized Spanish jobs like translator, interpreters, content writer, etc. You’ll be eligible for any job that requires Spanish, including some exclusive ones only meant for advanced learned. Getting an overseas job based entirely on C1/C2 is tricky, as, in most cases, native speakers are hired. Any in-demand combination will be more beneficial.

      A certificate course is not a replacement for a degree program. You can pursue a BA in English and part-time Spanish. The combination will be beneficial in your career. After graduation, you can choose between an MA in Spanish or a Masters in any stream of your choice along with part-time Spanish.

Getting a job in the embassy is tricky as there is a limited number of new openings. You can check → Spanish jobs in embassies.

      Getting an overseas job without a Master’s degree and relevant experience is difficult. However, you can certainly get some jobs in India. From the long-term perspective, it would be better to pursue Masters’s program like MBA from a reputed University.

          For a full-fledged career in Spanish, BA is better than a diploma. But this is not mandatory. You can also achieve the same by taking a higher level of DELE or Advanced Diploma. If you don’t want to put all the eggs in one basket, explore some good combination. While an MBA will be surely beneficial in a variety of fields and organizations, but getting a position in the Indian embassy is very challenging without cracking IFS (Indian Foreign Service).

There is only one small caveat – the validity is for five years, but that is pretty long for the majority of the purposes. Plus, you can take the test anytime, and gain the diploma within a few weeks. So, go ahead. You can also read an article DELE Vs. SIELE that I wrote sometime back on this blog.

    Dear Sir. I am working with Key Accounts in the FMCG industry. I want to learn Spanish as I have a keen interest in it and I have a knack for Sports events/companies, especially for football. Mainly I want to know: 1) How much certification is necessary 2) What level will be the best for a career path for a lucrative salary? 3) What are the best two industries should I consider other than sports.

    Warm regards

      I’m not sure whether there are enough opportunities in India for Spanish specialist Sports enthusiasts. It is because football in India is not as popular as in Europe and Latin America. Someone who has experience in the Sports area can answer better. To become a Semi-fluent, you need more than a certificate, something like B2 or Advanced Diploma. But again, it depends on the job requirement. A majority of language jobs are in MNC and Educational institutions.

Also, check various MNCs, BPOs, Export houses, educational Institutions that need someone with Spanish competency. Find their email or contact, and send your C.V.

I know many who are working as a Spanish specialist in normal working hours. After B2, you can apply to any such openings in several MNCs, Indian companies, and export-houses. If you are uncertain about future prospects. Then you can add more in-demand skills along with Español.

      The combination of writing and traveling is not popular in India and that is why such opportunities are rare. If you have a flair for writing, you can try your luck as a translator, blogger, content writer, or teaching Abroad as an ESL teacher. Maybe as a Freelancer.

      If you want to be a Spanish translator, it will take 3-4 years to study something like MA in Spanish translation or DELE C2 and then some experience too.

      Both BA in Spanish or Cervantes courses are fine. If you join Cervantes, you still have to pursue bachelor degree in some other subject. It does not matter where you study. What matter most is how good you are in Spanish as far as job is concerned. Irrespective of your Spanish fluency, it is difficult to find a job in Spain solely on the basis of Spanish since everyone speaks Spanish there. You need some other in-demand skills.

      If you planning to pursue master degree in Spain or a decent Spanish job in India, then you should aim at least DELE B2. It will take 2-3 years. ¡Buena suerte! (Good luck!)

      There are very few Spanish specialist jobs in embassies. In most cases, Skills other than Spanish is also required. You can check various Spanish-speaking country’s embassies official website or search on job portals. The number of new openings in embassies are quite limited. Recently i received two jobs in 2 embassies but both are filled now. Sometime i also post at Language Jobs

    Sir I’m in my 3rd year pursuing BA prog from DU. After this I’ve decided to study Spanish from Cervantes. I wanted to know if I can only study Spanish after my graduation and fully concentrate on this field to get a good job. Will I be eligible for decent jobs in Delhi if I study from Cervantes? And how much time I’ll take to complete B2 level in Cervantes ? I want to become fluent and settle for a decent job within 2-3 years? Please help me regarding this.

      Cervantes is a good choice but neither it is the only option nor studying there guarantee for success. You can definitely take Spanish as a full-time career. It will take 2-3 years to complete B2 if you put enough effort.

      To tell you the truth – The number of decent Spanish jobs are quite limited. May be 20% of all the Spanish Job opening in Delhi/India. To be eligible for such jobs, you need – (i) Good fluency, (ii) Proper certification like DELE/SIELE B2/C1 or BA/MA in Spanish, (iii) Experience as a Spanish specialist, (iv) Some other skills / academic qualification, (v) Good contacts, and (vi) Your personality. At least aim for (i), (ii) (iv), (vi) since (iii) and (v) will happen over a period of time.

          Well, if you wanna learn Spanish, you should! While PG is an added advantage though not compulsory. If you only go with only Spanish, not only you have to depend on Spanish but you have to be good. According to my experience and observation, i would recommend Full-time PG course in job oriented stream along with part-time Spanish.

      Yes. There are certain jobs in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry where knowledge of Spanish is a great value add on C.V. There are opportunities abroad too but for that, you need other skills like MBA in travel and tourism or International marketing, etc.

      For Spanish Institutes, Delhi – Instituto Cervantes, Instituto Hispania, Mundo Latino, Gurgaon – Lexicos, Noida – LanguageNext.

      Unfortunately, Spanish or for that matter, any language won’t help. There are 2 options.

      1) choose a career that will enable you to travel abroad. MBA in International marketing, jobs on the cruise ship, Flight Attendant, or successful freelancer are few choices.

      2) Do what you want / can and try to make and save enough money to travel the world. 99% of travel lovers follow the second choice. Whatever you decide, you can always learn Spanish for plenty of reasons.

      Diploma or B1 is ok for entry-level job openings in call centres, kpo and bpo. If, however you’re aiming for a good job, better salary, and career growth, you should aim for B2/C1. After C1, you can apply for a number of openings in Embassies, Export Houses, in MNCs, Educational Institutions, and also as an interpreter, translator, and in Travel & Tourism sector. Good Spanish jobs are limited and ergo higher proficiency in Spanish is the prerequisite in most cases.

Learning language probably got its reputation as easy career but that is far from the truth.

      It is true that a majority of Spanish jobs are in BPO, KPO and Call centres. There are still many jobs where night-shift is not an option. However, for such kind of jobs higher fluency level like B2/C1 or prior experience or skills other than Spanish are required. Today’s job market is extremely competitive. Thus, your resume has to be good enough to find a decent job in the language market.

      With your vast experience, why you want to start something completely new from scratch? Changing fields is usually much more difficult than finding a new job or develop interest in the same field. After few years of study, you will only find entry level jobs due to lack of experience. Thus, i won’t advice from a career perspective. If you want to add language skills in your C.V. or want to learn as a Hobby, then it is fine.

          There is plenty of work such as document translation, technology help desks, or requirement to speak/email or meet the clients from the non-English speaking regions. If any company has such an employee with language skills, it is a win-win for both.

      After Diploma, you should pursue an Advanced Diploma. You can also continue studying in Cervantes till you clear DELE B2 or C1.

      According to my experience – 75% of Jobs are entry-level jobs in BPO/KPO/Service industry and 25% high-paying good jobs in Embassies, Export Houses, Educational Institutions, in MNCs, and also as an interpreter, translator, and consultant/guide in Travel & Tourism sector. Aim for high proficiency like C1, then you can try for better options. Recently, i posted a job vacancy in an embassy – JOBS

      Have you completed B1 issued by Cervantes or institute own certification where you are studying? Only Cervantes is authorized to conduct DELE exam in Delhi. You can certainly pursue MA in Spanish from DU or JNU. Admission is through entrance exam. To clear the test, required knowledge is equivalent to Advanced Diploma or DELE B2. Check your Spanish knowledge through SIELE or DELE exam and not any private institute own test.

      Yes, You can sit for exam of any level and can skip A1 or A2 level and give B1 or B2 exam directly. However, It is not advisable to do so. You need to be good in all 4 parts (Speaking, Writing, Reading, and Listening as per DELE curricula) and at least 500 hours of classroom study or equivalent to get to a B2 level. So, skip only if you are sure.

      Since everyone speaks Indian Languages in India. How it will be useful in the career? Of course, one can become teacher, translator, interpreter in Indian languages but for that, higher academic qualification like MA or Ph.D. in the same language is essential. Remember, Good Speaking skills and Good translation skills are two totally different things.

      Since your hobby is language learning, you can definitely pursue Spanish. You should try for any private institute over IGNOU. Once you reach the higher proficiency level, you can try the 2nd one. This is what i did. 🙂

      You can teach few school students or Beginners level Spanish but DELE B1.2 is not enough to become a Spanish teacher/lecturer/trainer in any School, University, or Corporate world. Try to complete at least B2.3 or C1. You can also try for MA in Spanish after B2 though not necessary.

      To be a successful professional translator or interpreter, you need near-native proficiency in both the language (Source as well as the target language). The job, therefore, requires a high level of competence like C1/C2 or MA in Spanish.

      Spanish is not the only thing required for Jobs in embassies or consulates. There are various of kind of jobs and most are of administrative nature. HR, Accountant, Customer support, IT, MBA in International relation are some of the requirement. Knowledge of Spanish is an advantage and there are few vacancies for Spanish experts too and minimum requirement is DELE B2/C1.

      NO. 4-Year BA (Hons.) is a Full-time degree course whereas Advanced Diploma is part-time Diploma course. If you’re doing Advanced Diploma, you still need a degree course prerequisite for MA and also for most jobs. If you’re pursuing Bachelor course or already completed, then Advanced Diploma is right thing to do. Knowledge wise – Practical difference is not significant.

      After C2, you will be eligible to apply for 95% jobs, including embassies or cervantes or abroad. However, it is not equivalent to MA. DELE is more about Spanish language skills whereas MA is a degree course and primarily focus on culture, civilization, history, literature and only some part is related to Advanced language. While MA is not compulsory from career perspective, You can appear for the MA entrance exam after completing B2. !Buena suerte!

      For Spanish, you can try Lexicos (Sector 51, Gurugram). I’ve not visited that centre, so cannot confirm about the quality. In Delhi, Cervantes, Instituto Hispania and Mundo Latino are 3 best. For German, I did not find any quality institute in Gurgaon. While little far away but you should consider Goethe-Institut – Max Mueller Bhavan. It is the best for German classes.

      While there are plenty of good reasons to learn another language. There is no best or better one. It depends on various factors. If you just want to enhance your career prospects, then Both Spanish and Japanese are good options.

      The average length of time to learn advanced Japanese is 3-4 years whereas 2 years for Spanish provided that you study 10-15 hours per week. I’d suggest reading a few articles and take your own decision.

      Fully fluent means completing the level of C2 (DELE) / equivalent to near-Native. One year is too short term to become fluent. Generally, it will take 3-5 years to reach the goal provided that you spend 10-20 hours per week.

      If you follow the full immersion route (Listening Music, Watching Movies, Reading everything, Speaking with those who already know Spanish, etc. all only in Spanish, then you can achieve the excellent proficiency in less time say 2 years. This is true for 99% of students though 1% of exceptional super-intelligent do exist.

      Yes, as i said earlier in the comment section – Both French and Spanish are good from a career prospective though French has more opportunities than Spanish.

      To be a successful professional translator or Interpreter, you need near-native proficiency in both the language (Source as well as the target language). While one can become a translator/Interpreter in 4-5 years. However to become successful and specialist in various fields like Financial, Legal, Medical, Technical and Literary, it will take several years close to a decade. One can make good money by working part-time / Freelancing but only if you study French or Spanish for at least 5 years. If you want to become Interpreter or Translator, Complete C2 or MA in French/Spanish.

      To become fluent in one language, it will take 3-5 years provided that you study 10-12 hours per week. To learn 3-4 foreign languages, it will take 10-15 years. Without a practical approach and strong desire, it will be extremely difficult. Learning a language is a lifetime investment. Choose one and learn it properly. Once done, think about second.
