I know it probably depends upon location and career, but I was wondering how interested most employers would be in a potential employee who was proficient or fluent in asl? i’m just starting classes (very beginner, but hope to progress quickly enough) and i’m getting my masters in disaster preparedness. in my head, asl would be super useful in finding a job – in case of disaster, wouldn’t deaf people also need to be prepared? or am i just overthinking it? i’m really looking for an edge in my field.
if it makes a difference, the other language i was considering was japanese or russian 
not super useful for american disasters, but interesting to learn none-the-less!
thanks for the advice – i probably wouldn’t be getting certified to translate anytime soon. as i understand it, that type of fluency and vocabulary takes upwards of four or five years. but being able to say i’m proficient will be nice, i suppose. also, though spanish is in demand for most jobs, its surprisingly not all that desirable for the career i’m looking at. i have about 8 mostly-useless years of french, too
