GLOBO is looking for US-based qualified interpreters who want to help their community while enjoying a flexible work arrangement such as telephonic interpreting (TI), video interpreting (VRI), and/or On-site interpreting. 

You must permanently reside in the United States to be considered for this role.

About the role: 

As a US-based GLOBO Interpreter, you need to:

  • Represent GLOBO during on-site encounters with the clients.

  • Render correct concepts and meanings between the speakers, maintaining correct grammar, clarity, and tone between languages.

  • Closely follow client instructions, professionally interject only when additional clarity or repetition is required, and manage the flow of the conversation. 

  • Answer all client calls professionally, relaying first name and interpreter ID for every call.

  • Always use polite forms of expression, enunciate clearly, and strive to provide legendary customer service, even in emotionally charged situations.  

  • Conduct intake and pre-session scripting for each client.

  • Render correct concepts and meanings between the speakers, maintaining correct grammar, clarity, and tone between languages.

  • Closely follow client instructions, professionally interject only when additional clarity or repetition is required, and manage the flow of the conversation.

  • High-speed wired internet service with minimum download speeds of 10MB and upload speeds of at least 5MB.

  • A noise-canceling quality hardwired headset.

  • Computer/laptop device.

  • HIPAA-compliant workspace area with good lighting.

  • Solid background suitable for virtual calls.

Your Background and Experience:

  • Complete fluency in English in addition to your mother tongue.

  • Depending on the language pair, 2+ years of documented professional interpreting experience is desired. 

  • Excellent cultural understanding and ability to clearly explain cultural concepts to avoid miscommunication.

  • Medical terminology knowledge and the ability to reference medical glossaries during interpreting.

  • Training Program in the interpreting and/or language industry is a plus.

  • You must adhere to consent to submit a copy of your criminal background report/clearance in the onboarding process.
