3 DOCUMENT TRANSLATION
TransPerfect utilizes a three-step process for all translation projects intended for distribution which ensures the integrity, accuracy, and overall quality of our work product. Each document passes through a translator, editor, and proofreader, before being returned to the client. In cases where the scope of the source document or the speed of the turnaround time necessitates that multiple translators be used on a given project, we will always prepare a glossary of terms for reference during translation process. Additionally, once the separate portions of the translations are completed, the dedicated editor will review all of the text for consistency in language and formatting. Any inconsistencies will be addressed and resolved. Finally, the project’s proofreader will review the entire document once more to ensure consistency and accuracy.
Position Description: TransPerfect Translators are tasked with accurately translating, proofreading and editing the texts from one language to another. They ensure all quality control steps are adhered to and make sure projects are completed on time.

5 INTERPRETATION SERVICES
Service include the interpretation of oral communication to and from English, and native Foreign Languages.
Interpretation includes, but is not limited to: simultaneous, consecutive, escort, community, telephonic and voiceovers. Interpreter forums may include meetings, conferences, seminars, litigation, briefings, and training.
Client consultation and project management services provided for scheduling, and the assignment and logistical coordination of linguist support.
Unparalleled expertise distinguishes TransPerfect as the leader in providing the highest-quality interpretation services worldwide. We are committed to ensuring that speaking through an interpreter doesn’t not reduce the quality of services our clients provide and that nothing is lost or modified in the process. When it comes to customer satisfaction, our clients can testify to our cooperative, attentive and outstanding interpretation services, regardless of the subject matter.
Because different situations call for different styles of interpretation, TransPerfect offers three types of interpretation services: simultaneous, consecutive, and over-the-phone.
Simultaneous Interpretation – Most commonly utilized in large conferences and meetings, simultaneous interpretation usually requires special equipment to transmit interpreted speech to a large number of participants. Our state-of-the-art equipment includes wired, wireless and infrared systems, as well as, two-and three-person booths. We have dedicated project managers that tailor our services to meet our clients’ specific needs.
Consecutive Interpretation – Ideal for one-on-one conversations and small group meetings, consecutive interpretation is generally bi-directional (i.e. the interpreter waits for the speaker to finish his or her statement before interpreting the language to the other party). No specialized equipment is necessary for this type of assignment.
Telephonic or Over-the-Phone Interpretation (OPI) or Video Remote Interpretation (VRI) – In situations when in-person interpretation is not possible, OPI is an excellent alternative. Sophisticated call center technology and highly skilled staff enable us to match qualified, industry-specific interpreters with callers in more than 120 languages within 30 seconds. TransPerfect’s call center is staffed with operators, supervisors, managers, interpreter liaisons, scheduling analysts, telecom specialists, and technical engineers – 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year. We are equipped with CTI technology, a Screen Pop, Avaya ACD, and Hewlett-Packard computer equipment. We are also prepared with plans and procedures for disaster recovery, redundancy and power failures.
TransPerfect’s Director of Government Services will work with you to help determine the most appropriate interpretation solution for any given need.
Minimum Qualifications:
Candidate must be a native speaker of the target language
Candidate must provide proof of educational background and experience through either:
o college degree and five years of experience in translation, or o advanced degree and three years professional experience in translation, or
10 years professional experience in translation
