Potential request for proof-reading quotes from freelance translators (no agencies please)

English > Norwegian: Marketing Review Project

The project is with one of the world’s leading brands; a young and vibrant multinational company highly specialised in online advertising and internet-based IT services. It is based primarily in the marketing/technical/IT field and includes promotional literature/advertising and other related documents. Due to the size of the project we will be assembling teams for each language combination who together can manage the workload. All work will be completed on a freelance basis from your own home/office.

With regards to review work, we expect our linguists to be able to review up to 1000 words per hour on average. It is important to note that by ‘review’ we simply mean an evaluation of the translation. You will be required to provide your professional opinion on the quality of the text and its linguistic style, and to offer suggestions as to how it can be improved; you will not be required to identify each individual mistake or to make any corrections to the text.

The volumes expected from this client are very large and the project is expected to offer these volumes continuously. While the project will not offer full time translation work, it should offer a continuous stream of part-time freelance work for somewhere in the region of 1-3 years. While we cannot give a guaranteed amount of words per week/month at this stage, our client has advised that linguists can expect around 10 hours of review work per week on average. The work is due to start in the coming months and any work would be submitted by our user friendly online interface, Language Director.

Before the live work is due to start, our client will be taking each of the selected linguists through a short training program. This will be entirely online-based and will consist of around 16 hours of work, which you will be required to complete over a two week period. The training will be paid at your agreed hourly review rate and will introduce you to the client specific style guides and toolkits, as well as providing you with a comprehensive overview of your role and the part that our freelance linguists play in the company as a whole.
