| Tartalmi kivonat: | As a result of globalisation, European integration, technological innovations, historical and political changes, and also student and workforce mobility, foreign language needs and requirements have changed in Hungary. The aim of this paper is to present foreign language knowledge requirements at Hungarian workplaces in order to provide a picture of the language skills in demand on the labour market. The study analyzes 400 Hungarian online job advertisements to identify foreign language and other competence requirements expected from Hungarian graduates. The findings show the significance of speaking English as a foreign language, followed by German. The analyses of the advertisements have revealed that the employers require foreign language competences mainly from engineers, however, for economists, doctors and lawyers it is not a great necessity. Besides foreign language requirements, the investigation has proved the necessity of good communication skills. |
