is it easy finding a good job being bilingual in cali (fluent english)?

hey guys,
im fluent in english and i wonder if i could find a good job in cali as a translater or in a hotel or in the airport but i dont really know...i think english is pretty common now in there and most of the people knows it. but i live in NY right now and had for a while too. so its not liked i learned english there..i learned it here in NY.
so you guys get me out of my doubt if i could possibly find a good job in cali being bilingual...or i have the same chances as a regular person to find a job..

What a great post, you have about as much chance of geting a job as a translater or in a hotel or in the airport as the next girl, what really matters is your personality.

It's not easy to find a job. However, it does help to speak great English.

You write in English much better than I can write in Spanish. Which is why I generally do not write in Spanish. But, if you speak at the same level you write, you are not fluent in English. In your post, you made a minimum of 37 grammatical errors in English. Like untreated said, personality is the key, and you do obviously speak English sufficiently well enough to interpret casually. Good luck; jobs are hard to come by in Colombia.
