Abstract:

Using insights drawn from the experiences of professional linguists working in
a range of domains, this book is an essential resource to help you recognize
the value and relevance of your skills and training as a linguist in the job
market. No matter where you are in your career – just starting a first job or
reflecting back on 30 years – this book provides an interpretive frame for
catalyzing momentum around what comes next.

Encouraging you to approach your career with agency and curiosity, Anna Marie
Trester details the myriad ways that linguists can contribute meaningfully to
the world of work. Exploring the connections between linguistics as a field of
study and a way of thinking, she details the ways in which the powerful
observational and analytical skills and abilities cultivated by a background
in linguistics can be employed in a diverse range of professional workspaces.
With activities, exercises, and a review of career literature, "Employing
Linguistics" helps you seek and create opportunities as you choose what
challenges to focus on next.
