Anyways, is anyone here bi-lingual for job purposes? I.e., work as an interpreter, or being bi-lingual was a requirement for your position?
I'm just curious how one goes about becoming "certified" (is that what it would be called?) as bi-lingual. Do you have to have a Master's degree, or does a Bachelor's degree in that language suffice? Or do you even have to have a degree? How does one prove that they're bi-lingual?
Make sense?

I've heard there are certifications and exams by different orgs. The CIA provides you with several texts and asks you to translate them. I know the UN has their own exam as well. I think one of the highest levels is real-time translation, and that pays an extremely high salary from what I heard because it's so difficult to find.
