Proper
understanding on scale of a translation
company
Many translation companies allege
that they have dozens of in-house
translators as well as thousands of
part-time translators, but the truth
is that very few companies are what
they claim to be. Most translation
companies operate with just a few
part time translators.
Proper understanding
on the capability of a translation
company
Be aware of translation providers
that promise to offer whatever service
you request. These companies often
claim that their translators are fully
capable of doing translation for any
industry in any given language. The
truth is that very few companies have
“all around competent“ in-house translators.
Experts in English with technical
background will not be content with
working full time in translation companies.
Know who you are
dealing with
Through a phone call, you will have
a general knowledge about a translation
company in respect to its proficiency
in languages, efficiency in translation
business and professionalism.
Proper attitude
towards translation time and charge
Make sure cost and time saving is
not the priority set for selecting
translation companies. Translation
is a tough mental work in which expertise
is required. The price and the time
are directly proportional to the quality
of translation. The chances of finding
a translation of superior quality
at a low price within a short time
span are slim and such attempt will
end up in disappointment.
Please note that
Transbest does not accept handwritten,
illegible or obscure source texts.
We only take responsibility for the
accuracy of the translation and will
not be held liable for any consequence,
direct or indirect, caused by or arising
from the use of the translation we
provide. For translation of technical
materials, we request that, if possible,
in-house technical or business vocabulary
be provided. This will help us set
up a special vocabulary pool to serve
you better in the future. Two-day
advance notice shall be required to
obtain consecutive interpreting service
and one week advance notice for simultaneous
interpreting service.
A reliable translation
company presents itself in an objective
and honest way. If necessary, a visit
to the translation company will help
you know what it is really like. A
free test piece is a good way to measure
the capability of a translation company.
Prudent approach leads you to a good
partner. |
