    Hello Astrid,

    I have just found your CV. I have a few questions regarding your bid:
    - what language pairs do you translate, be precise
    - what is your daily turn around: translation, proofreading, editing (if applicable)
    - what is your best rate per word; translation, proofreading, etc.
    - do you offer bulk rates such as for large or ongoing projects
    - are you open to taking a small translation test for each language pair
    - are you flexible regarding availability
    - do you work with CAT tools, if so, which one(s)

    Thank you again and I am looking forward to your reaction!

    Dear Astrid,
    This bid was intended to find translators of all language skills and since it was my first posting, I submitted it as a trial posting. I am still looking for skilled translators in all world languages and with all skill levels. Since i have no other means to contact you other than this way, I would kindly like you to re-submit your bid and information when I will place my new posting - searching for translators in all languages. I would appreciate it if you were to forward a means of contact, which you could add when attaching your CV.

    Sincerely,

    Indyra

    Hello,
    This message is for Gauri!
    I do not want to insult your translation skills but your German translation is filled with spelling errors and more.
    It looks like you submitted a machine translation, a bad one for that. If you like me to point the eroors you have made, I will gladly do so. This is not intended to affend you it simply intended to inform you that you are "not" a qualified German translator.

    Sincerely,

    Indyra

    Dear Indyra,

    I would love to cooperate with you, but unfortunately, I cannot bid on this project, since this is a trial project.
    I have been working as a translator for the past 9 years now, and I have studied English in Maastricht. My language pairs are NE<>EN, NE<>DE, DE<>EN, FR>NE, FR>DE and FR>EN. Normally I would charge $0,07 per source word, but since this would be an ongoing project, I will only charge $0,03 per source word. That would mean, for 1000 words $30. I will be more than happy to take a small test, if required. I work mo-fr, and if necessary also weekends. You could reach me via mail, or Skype, under tweety51276. I'm looking forward hearing from you, and maybe working together.

    Kind regards,
    Astrid Schenesse-Vossen

Hello, I am a published writer with an MD and 10 years of experience as a multilingual translator. My pairs are DE-EN FR-EN EN-FR. I also do proofreading and editing for English and French. My bid is $17 for proofreading/editing of 1000 words and $39 for translating 1000 words. My fields of expertise are very varied, from automotive to copyright, finance, business, literature, IT, psychology, wine business, travel, marketing, linguistics, geology, energy, human resources, etc. I am an excellent reasearcher, and I have a knack for writing like a connoisseur, even when I am new to a field. I keep a glossary database for different fields and have already identified online glossary sources to resort to. I am available on week days, but I usually prefer to work on a per-project basis, and it is totally fine for me to do a deadline-oriented project over the weekend. Please see my Resumé, references, and translation samples on PM. Regards, Veronica less
