1,610 trainee translator interview questions shared by candidates

The test consisted of two samples of the type of texts I would have to translate if I got the job—in this specific case, i-gaming sports articles. They included some helpful instructions, and I had to translate the source text to the target language. They suggested we could comment on our translation choices, so I wrote a page-long explanation, which, according to the Evaluation Form, ended up being really meaningful for the positive result of my test.

Test was done with pen and paper (!!!) on screenhots and text, 1 hour Question: Extremely general ones. Interviewer had no idea what the job was going to be about, or intended this to be an all-encompassing, handyman role anyway
