m4j)Q`6u Actually, my friends just want to know:How many job positions are there for Business English majors to choose?,and what are they?

Pw [r3{R You may say sales,buyer,order-follower(?),any else?How to name the jobs and what're their duties or functions?

Maybe it is better for Business English Majors students to work as a foreign trade order-follower first,their main ability is to communicate with the customer and your company,ask your engineer to prepare the samples according to your customer's requirements,send them to your customer then ask them to confirm the samples to you,once get the order,make sure the delivery date and prepare to send out the cargo.4oO!@.c`
After one or two years experience for foreign trade order-follower,then you can have a try to do as a foreign trade sales,except the ability of the order-follower,the most important is that you must find your our customer by yourself,from the website or attend the Fair or ther ways.
3f~0C7K A#J w Maybe what I said it is not very clear,as I just have one years experience.

The simple answer is infinate - because they can create there jobs by starting there own unique buisness with there own unique service. But just because they have a business english major doesnt mean they have to go into business - they can go into teaching, translation services, writing, business journalism it depends on the individual. I have a law degree but i am an English teacher/sales/DJ! Your degree doesnt determine your job ;)

Thank you, Chris and Mason!%^W;r.NnM ?
Regarding to Chris's opinion, the range of jobs is a little narrow,maybe it's the most suitable choice,furthurmore probably that's what you wanted learning BE.Good!

y4j sT+u6P About Mason's idea,it's similar to mine. What they really want?Why choosed learning BE?They could do everything they want.They could do everything they are able to,better if there're chances to use English,especially Business one.]v"wg_yz

^a.w4ZI:y9z So, the right answer possiblly is: They could do jobs as many as the numbers of all busnisses relative to English,particularly BE. Right?
