What is the right way to accept a job invitation?

Before you agree to participate in a project, we suggest you do the following:

  1. Review the document for possible errors that can hinder your work and if there are any, notify the client about them. 
  2. Estimate the word count and determine how much you can translate without compromising on quality. The client can assign the rest of the text to another translator thus speeding up the process.
  3. Discuss special terminology with the client, if you found any. You can also ask for a glossary or other reference material. 
  4. Before getting started, discuss the deadline, cost, and volume of work to be completed. Ask if there are any special requirements that may affect these aspects. If multiple participants will be working on the same document and the segments will not be split between them, ask the client to provide a list of segments assigned to you.
  5. If it was the client’s choice to use machine translation in the project, ask them via built-in chat whether they expect post-editing of machine translation output or unaided human translation from scratch. Please avoid using machine translation without prior approval from the client.
