Hello, I am a native Japanese translator and interpreter with over 5 years of professional experience. I believe my linguistic ability paired with my experience in a variety of domains will make me a great candidate for this position.
I am very responsible and self-motivated, and I have achieved every translation job with thorough attention to details. For example, my most recent job was to translate, time-code and added subtitles to the interviews of Japanese fishermen that totaled over 10 hours. The challenge of the job was not only its length but also having to deal with the heavy dialect from the countryside and Japanese nautical terms. Challenges always fuel me forward, and I gladly dove into the research process. The director was highly impressed with my passion and dedication and was quite satisfied by the delivered work.
On top of my experience in translation, working on a variety of time sensitive projects in a theatre and schools under pressure honed my interpersonal and organizational skills. I am very friendly and a self-directed team player with careful attention to details.
In closing, I think my skills and experience are a great match with what you are seeking, and I am excited about the chance to work with you.
