At ìntränsōl, we carefully screen and evaluate all of our language associates to ensure that each linguist’s work is up to our extremely high quality standards. Our evaluations are designed to serve the overall interests of our clients with specialized needs for translation and interpretation.
The benefits of our rigorous linguist selection process:
- We are able to evaluate the specific skills, areas of expertise and educational backgrounds of our linguists with subject-specific tests to ensure that projects are appropriately assigned to translators and editors with proven expertise in your industry
- Our evaluation process validates our linguists’ qualifications using a method that is highly reliable and quantifiable
- We are able to continually and periodically assess our linguists abilities and qualifications as they acquire new skills, education and experience
- Our evaluation process helps our linguists understand and abide by our professional ethics, methodologies, codes of conduct and specialized approaches
- Liability concerns are greatly reduced through appropriate allocation of language resources
In order to be included in the ìntränsōl roster of preferred linguists, all candidates must:
- Be native speakers of the target language to which they translate
- Have at least five (5) years of professional translation experience to be considered as one of our lead translators, or two (2) years to be one of our secondary translators or proofreaders
- Provide proof of educational background and work history
- Provide three professional translation references from clients familiar with their work
- Show that they return and spend at least one month every two years in their native country
Testing & evaluation
Once these minimal requirements are met, candidates are evaluated with a series of written and/or oral assessments to measure their qualifications, proficiency in specific languages and subject areas, level of accuracy, degree of professionalism, ability to follow specific instructions and ability to complete an evaluation within specific timeframes. Once linguists pass the ìntränsōl evaluation process, they are required to maintain their status by remaining an active linguist with ìntränsōl and by updating us regarding changes in their education or other critical information about their work.
Emphasis on translation quality assurance, project management, task automation, process consistency and superb customer service allows us to produce the highest value per customer dollar spent on translation. Whatever your translation needs, ìntränsōl will always exceed your expectations in terms of quality, service, support and value.
