This Wednesday (April 12), I’ll be giving a free webinar through SDL’s professional development series, on Three ways to find your first translation clients. Inspired by my blog post on the same topic, I’ll describe how to:
- work the local market
- apply to translation agencies that base their hiring only on their own tests
- cultivate a micro-niche
These strategies are intended mostly for new translators who need a way around the chicken and egg dilemma of, “Clients don’t want to hire me without experience, but how do I get experience if clients won’t hire me?” It’s free, and is not a sales pitch. Hope to see some of you there!
What time?
Thanks, Mayte: it’s at 4 PM UK time (time should be on the web page I linked to), which is 5 hours ahead of US Eastern time. I’m in Colorado (Mountain time) and it’s at 9 AM my time.
HI, Corinne!
I’m having trouble registering for the webinar. I wrote to SDL but no one answered me yet. Can you help?
Hello Guylaine and I’m sorry to hear that! Unfortunately I can’t process registrations directly, but you could contact Ed Flower (eflower@sdl.com) to see if he can help.
Hi Corinne,
Thanks to you and Ed, everything’s fine now. Great team work! Can’t wait to hear the webinar. Thank you!
Thanks, hope you enjoyed it!
