@DrFantinuoli @duolingo Perhaps a problem unique to the US – student loans. Average debt load for BA grads: $25K & $65K for MA grads. When you have $100K of debt on your back at the start of your career, you have to consider earning potential. Young professionals are voting with their feet.
@DrFantinuoli @duolingo Economic factor. The 2023 ELIS survey (https://t.co/KxZntEFv6F) reported: 1/3 of freelance linguists do not make enough from lang work & need other work to top off their income. Especially tough for those with < 2 yrs of experience. Less than 30% make enough.
Totally worth a share: Interpreters are wizards – at times they seem to have read my mind. AI could never compete | John Banville https://t.co/96LThUGBki
