Create My Translator / Interpreter CV

Agencies and clients look at your language pairs, specialisms and volume. Show clearly which directions, which fields and how much you've translated.

State language pairs clearly

Give direction too: "English > Turkish", "German > English". List written translation and interpreting (consecutive, simultaneous) separately.

Name your specialisms

Legal, medical, technical, financial, games and software localisation pay differently. You can give total volume (words or pages).

Add certification and tools

Sworn/certified translator status or professional body membership, CAT tools (Trados, memoQ, Smartcat) and terminology management.

What Every Translator / Interpreter CV Should Include

  • Language pairs and directions
  • Specialisms
  • Certification (if any)
  • CAT tools

Example Work Experience Lines

Write your experience in the same concrete, measurable way:

  • "Translated over 1.5 million words of legal and commercial content from English into Turkish."
  • "Worked as a consecutive interpreter at international conferences."
