I think 成绩 is a good way of describing it as well! I hear it more comment in other instances too!

<p>When a marketing agent says someone is quite marketable, he/she means that the person has the quality to draw and get job offers with the least marketing effort, in other words, this person is &quot;quite easy to market&quot;. In Chinese, I would say &quot;他的資歷很符合市場需求, <strong>很好推銷</strong>.&quot;</p>
<p>The same can be said for commodities - &quot;這商品的功能很符合市場需求, <strong>很好推銷</strong>.&quot;</p>

Interesting, I never knew you could say that a person 「很好推销」! I thought it was only for products!

@Monokuma In the eyes of the marketers/recruiters, "很好推销" means the candidate/product will be well accepted without excessive spending, a good candidate or product.

Maybe you mean: "My professor recommends that we take a Master's degree after completing our Bachelor's degree, so that we are more "marketable" in the employment market." 可能吗?

What is the Chinese equivalent of calling someone "marketable"?
# What is the Chinese equivalent of calling someone "marketable"?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2024-02-27)

Upon research, something like "***销路***" comes as a result. For example, 'to be marketable' would be "**有销路的**" (yǒu xiāo lù de).

However, this sounds off, as it sounds like too literal of a translation. Kind of like a adjective for marketable items.
It does not sound like a adjective for describing a person.

Example English sentence that I would like translated:

* *"My professor recommends us to go for a second degree after our first degree in taking Masters. It is so that we are marketable to our employers."*

With this sentence, I sometimes gets the translation "**有竞争力**" (**to be competitive**). However, I am looking for a translation closer to the meaning of "marketable".
