Hi guys!
Just wondering, do applicants with multiple languages (with credentials such as JLPT) listed on their resumes have a higher employment opportunity?
My friend plans to sit the JLPT this year and wondering if it has any benefits for resumes and employment.

Thankyou

There are organisations which look for employees who are fluent in a specific language.

When I was a hopeful job hunter, I applied for a Financial Planning position even when the job description said that they'd prefer someone who was fluent in Mandarin! I'm Curry. I got a rather confused response when I called the employer, and as you can guess I didn't get the job

As you can see it really depends on the position. Employers mainly look at what experience you've had in the past and your work ethic is like
