English-Majored Students' Most Common Career Options and the Levels of Readiness for the Careers

Abstract

EFL students nowadays have a variety of career options. Most of them, however, still do not have a well-understanding or a strong readiness for their job targets. This study was conducted to find out the EFL students’ most career options, some language standards when selecting careers and to what extent students feel that they are ready for their future careers. To answer these questions, we use exploratory questionnaires to survey the participants. The findings demonstrate that teaching English is the most attractive career that EFL students want to attend after graduating, followed by the freelancer. However, a group of students still cannot locate their future careers. Additionally, juniors and seniors are considered to have better preparation for their career prospects than freshmen and sophomores.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0947/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
