Comments

• A remote interpreter can work via video interpreting (VRI) or over-the-phone interpreting (OPI).
• Events that require remote interpreting can be divided into two types: face-to-face meetings and virtual meetings.
• In face-to-face meetings, interpreters are the only people who are not “on-site”. Demand for services of this kind are on the rise in conference, legal and healthcare interpreting.
• The trend for growing needs for remote interpreting for face-to-face meetings will likely continue as clients push for more efficiency. The interactions requiring interpretation are usually shorter in duration for this type of interpreting.
• Remote interpreting for virtual meetings (where all parties are “remote” - think webinar/video conferencing, for example) is also seeing rising demands. They usually take place before and/or after a conference setting with physically present participants, and serve to complement, not replace the actual conferences themselves. Court cases and doctor's consultations also have increasing demand for virtual meeting/interpreting.
• Advantages of remote interpreting: Aside from cost savings and increased availability (of minority language interpreters from abroad, for example, remote interpreting can also provide logistical alternatives when the venue simply cannot accommodate the amount of interpreters needed. A meeting between European heads of state at Hampton Court, UK in 2005 which was simultaneously interpreted into 22 languages was mediated using this type of service.
• Downsides: harder to get “visual cues” as the cameramen, not the interpreters who choose what is captured on a screen. May strain vision and make the interpreters feel that they don't have as much control over the situation. Technology-related challenges may also arise.
• Trend: remote interpreting is being used more, and usually interpreters report no worse quality as compared against traditional modes of interpreting. It is here to stay and it is a good idea for aspiring interpreters to learn about it and get familiarized with it.

Job Description

• Renders messages faithfully and accurately, using the correct terminology and register
• Helps the participants of meetings (virtual or face-to-face) communicate
• Provides simultaneous, consecutive or other forms of interpreting service as required by the organization/client

Qualifications

• Interpreting skills, active listening skills, communication skills
• Knowledge of videoconferencing/webinar tools and other technological devices/programs required in remote interpreting
• Ability to learn fast and think on one's feet

The reviewer has the responsibility of checking the translations done for the client and making sure that everything is correct (style, grammar, punctuation, meaning, etc). The work needs to be reviewed thoroughly and, if necessary, the reviewer will need to ask the translator to go over any problems detected to provide a quality translation. Clients should be fully satisfied with the work done, including deadlines. The reviewer must remember that, even though clients may not know the language of the translation, they may have people around who understand it well.

Job Description

• The reviewer is tasked with reviewing the linguistic and formatting issues associated with a translation project. His or her overall goal is to analyze the content for appropriate style, tone and message consistency.
• In some workflows a document may be reviewed by a third person. This third person is usually referred to as a reviewer. There are generally three types of reviewers:
• An internal/in-house reviewer will review the translation after all formatting is complete. The reviewer ensures that there are no typographical errors incorporated during the DTP phase. The reviewer may also focus on checking the accuracy of software references, localized graphics and other requirements that might be specific to the project.
• A client reviewer is someone on the client’s side who reviews and/or approves the final translation. The client review step may be a requirement, but it is important that the client reviewer have extensive experience and knowledge about the topic.
• An independent reviewer will assure quality when a translator enters a new language market. The more issues a translator can prevent before launch, the smoother his or her entrance.

Qualifications

• Is a native speaker of the target language and have exceptional language skills.
• Understands the language translation process from start to finish.
• Is available during the appropriate time-frame to meet deadlines so there are no delays.
• Is a subject matter expert for the product and the content that is translated.
• Decision-making & finalizing reviews: When you are completing a review, keep in mind that you are the last thing that stands between the translation and visitors. Once you click on ‘Review complete’, the work is published and available to all.
• Thoroughness - go through everything: Only consider completing a review once you have checked all the translation. Make sure that you have gone over all parts of the project if it includes different pages or sections.
• Understanding the context and target culture & checking the translation in its context: It is always important to see the full picture. Make sure you know where the translation will be used and who the target audience is. Assume nothing. If you are not sure, ask the client.
• Following up, solution-making: If you have a question for the client, create an issue asking for clarifications. If you have doubts about the translation, create an issue for the translator. Before completing the review, all issues should be closed. Open issues mean unresolved problems.
