Working with us

If you are an able and qualified translator or interpreter, who is interested in and takes great care over the quality of your work, and you have proven experience in specific sectors, having worked or done numerous successful translations, then your interest is most welcome and reciprocated.

Planet language services is interested in enriching and enlarging its pool of reliable translators and interpreters so that it can keep expanding the volume and type of assignments, so maintaining and improving the level of quality of the results.

We may not be able to use you as a collaborator straightaway, but if your professional profile is of interest to us, as soon as an opportunity to use your skills arises, we will offer you a work assignment. As it is not our policy to ask candidates to do a test free-of-charge, the first assignment will normally be paid, and we will then check it to see whether we have a new professional which we can rely on.

We ask you to be precise when stating your translation and interpreting specialisation areas, that is the main specific sectors, be they technical and commercial or humanistic, in which you have done translations or worked as an interpreter; we ask this because the information will help us a great deal when choosing the right professional with the suitable skills for a specific assignment. Likewise, remember to specify your work experience, that is the specific sectors in which you have worked for a sufficient period of time to enable you to gain specific knowledge, forma mentis, terminology, even if you have not yet had the opportunity to use this wealth of information for translating purposes.

If you would like to send in some examples of your translations, you can do so by sending them to us by post or fax: they will be assessed and taken into consideration when defining your profile in our files. Our address and phone number can be found in the How to contact us section.

All personal details sent to Planet language services will be stored electronically and will not be passed on to anyone else for any reason whatsoever. They will be used solely for enabling us to select the most suitable translator or interpreter for a particular assignment and to enable us to get in contact with you in the quickest and safest way.

Planet language services pays all the fees due to the professionals that it collaborates with on time, in accordance with the agreed rates and conditions.

Planet language services insists on correct professional behaviour from its collaborators, and in particular:

• the utmost discretion is to be applied regarding the content of the translations and any backup material, as well as all the confidential information which may come to your knowledge during the assignment     
• your undertaking to not benefit in any way from information or facts learned during the assignment 
• the scrupulous respect for the fixed due dates and, in the case where problems arise, you must inform Planet language services in good time so that it can check the situation also from the client's point of view.
