The Superlinguo Linguist Job Interviews master list
The Linguist Jobs Interview series has been running for 5 years. There are now 50 interviews to date, with people who studied linguistics - be it a single undergraduate subject or a full PhD - and then gone on to careers outside of academia.
Although I ask the same questions each time, I get very different answers. For some people, linguistics is directly applicable to their daily work, while others find that the general skills they learnt can transfer to other careers.
I update this list at least once a year. For newer interviews, you can browse the Linguistics Jobs tag on the blog!
