I was asked some common interview translations, like describing myself in three words. I was mostly explained how the potential collaboration would work and who my teammates would be. The interviewer was super friendly and polite, and I was told that I would have to do another interview with the project leader afterwards.

Technical Other

A headhunter reached out and had me take a test. I got a quick confirmation that I passed, but then had to wait weeks for a response. I never heard back about the next steps, and eventually got an email saying they went with another candidate. I asked for feedback but never heard from them again.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • The test was not difficult and consisted in different exercises like app localisation, online help, and creative bits. I was asked to comment on the translation.

First, we had a video call where we talked about my background, translation experience, and general work experience. Then, I had a 90-minute translation test involving Chinese and English PowerPoint documents, which I had to submit the next day.
