If machine translation greatly improves, I and my freelance translators will experience reduced work load. While the problem doesn't concern me too much right now, since machine translation is still far from producing the quality of work a human can perform, I know that I may have to deal with the issue at some point in the future, and will probably have to adapt my business. Check all that apply. If one's interest is in becoming a translator, the most important experience you can get is studying and working abroad. If one's interest is in the management level, like my job, and especially if you intend to run your own business, business management education can be helpful.
Experience working for others in the field is essential before starting one's own business.
Just career exploration.
