Talking to the world

Posted by Marta Stelmaszak May 15, 2013 in

The theme of this conference – Talking to the World – aims to identify the landscape of the profession, and see how we can improve the education of the next generation of interpreters to meet the demands of tomorrow.
• The conference will discuss issues related to working in a world that is fast changing, economically, politically, and technologically
• Interpreter education in universities is developing with the new demands of the profession
• Effective teaching, continuous assessment and testing are major goals for today’s trainers in interpreting schools both within universities and in the key service users, including international organisations and the European institutions.

I’ll be presenting a paper with a good colleague of mine. Register here. See you soon in Newcastle!

Thank God for people like Marta! I had followed her guidelines to write my curriculum, so I contacted her for reviewing it. She was very helpful at providing me with tips and orienting me on how to tailor my CV according to my target prospects. I highly recommend her since she's an absolute expert on the marketing subject.

Not only did Marta take the time to review my CV in a very generous way, but also she did a great analysis of it. She a warm, easy-going woman who likes to help others improve their marketing skills. She made use of her strong experience and knowledge to point out specific details which needed to be polished in my documents. I am very thankful for her generosity and kindness, she's certainly a translator with one of the best marketing strategies I've known.

As a freelance translator I must say Marta's advice was extremely helpful. Last October 2012 I was overhauling my CV to target translation agencies and I strongly believe Marta's review helped me to come up with a professional, marketable sales pitch!
