What languages look the best on a resume? I assume Spanish is the best at least here in the US but what is the general tier list for other languages?

The language of your prospective employer obviously.

Nobody cares about Spanish. We speak English for now, but Mandarin soon

Spanish is basic-tier, but very useful for medical and other public-facing roles.
Mandarin looks great, though less practical outside of trade-focused, glowie-adjacent stuff, or other specified areas. Might as well put it down even if you don't have it if you are pretty sure it will never be used and nobody at the job speaks it

Business-wise, you'd want the next most common language spoken by your clientele, in America's case that's mostly spanish, and the most common language spoken by suppliers or business associates such as Mandarin, supposedly it's awful to deal with them though.

In Europe? German if your degree is STEM-related, French if it's Humanities-related. Mandarin and Arabic are nice addenda.

Whatever bastard language they speak in India because once you have to work with the outsourced bhenchods you won't want to speak to them in English.

Depends where you live.
English is a good language to know as is Spanish and Chinese.

This is America in 2023, 5% of your company minimum will speak Chinese, 50% Indian mumbles, 10% Spanish, 30% English and 5% chimpanzee

It does not matter for resume. Unless relevant for the position. Otherwise you will simply get a tick for being bi lingual

that's a 10

All worthless now. You'll be competing with the millions of bilingual people in the world. Imagine putting some spanish on your resume in burgerland or some Somali in Europe.

Spanish is the language of the third world. Why would anyone want to speak it?

Any second language will seem impressive when the majority only speaks one. Whichh is best or best bang for buck depends on the company/field. Chinese is an obvious one. Yiddish or >>54374854 might be interesting also, but I'm not sure about long term. If you already know some Spanish why not. The US does a lot of business with Mexico.
