“I get this comment all the time from homeschooling parents.
Why should my student take German. Spanish is so much more
practical. I headed up a division of a publishing house and had
resumes coming in all the time.The ones that had German...,
Arabic, Chinese, etc (any of the languages considered "hard")
went right to the top of the pile. I didn't need a language speaker,
but the student who takes one of these languages has
demonstrated that he/she is probably an independent thinker
(since all his/her friends take Spanish), thinks outside of the box
(same reason), probably has a good understanding of his/her own
language, a good work ethic and discipline, and is intelligent. This
is a skill set that I wanted in my team.There are several Spanish
students who possess the same qualities, but there are also
several who just go with the flow and take Spanish because it's
"easier" or "all my friends are taking Spanish". German looks
GREAT on a resume! … 
… Second, there are so many Hispanics applying for jobs
that need Spanish speakers. What chance do I, as a
McGuire, have against a Gomez or a Ramirez?While there
are less jobs open forGerman speakers, there are also far
fewer qualified applicants and I stand as good a chance as a
Schneider or a Schmidt..”
