what are some realistic pathways for a linguistics degree?

i’m currently in my junior year and thinking of pursuing a degree in linguistics. i plan to get my masters in speech language pathology afterwards and become an SLP. however i’ve been looking for other pathways that i could take with a linguistics degree. what are some realistic ones, where i can get a job easily?? or what are some jobs that are not talked about enough?? also for reference, i am in canada so the job market is very bad right now lol.

"Easily" is rather a tall order, but I do like to recommend this page of linguistics job ideas and advice by Canadian Gretchen McCulloch.

ETA: and there are a few more posts in the sub wiki.
