The Translator Diaries is a series of interviews with tweeting translators, from some of Twitter's most established linguistic professionals to recent industry débutants.
Rather than reciting their CVs, the interviewees talked specifically about how and why they got into translation, how they acquired experience and qualifications, how they made the transition to freelancer, and how they survived the start-up phase.
The series therefore provides inspiring accounts that can help translation students and newcomers to make decisions when it comes to breaking into the industry and making their career successful.
Series 1 ran on this website in March and April 2013 and Series 2 ran from June until July 2013. Read the Series 2 interviews here:
