Getting started as a freelance translator

About this course

The translation industry doubles in size every ten years, and demand for skilled translators continues to grow. In this course, I teach you how to get started as a location-independent freelance translator. I focus on freelance translation, but the information is also relevant to in-house translation jobs. I cover the basics of the freelance translation industry, including types of clients, lucrative specializations, and the future of translation as a career. Other topics include getting clients, keeping project managers happy, and essential dictionaries, books, Computer-Aided Translation (CAT) tools, and other resources.
