HOW TO FIND TRANSLATION JOBS IN 2024 (Freelance Translator)

Finally the long-awaited update video on my How to Find Translation Jobs series is here. I share my tips how you can kickstart your career as a freelance translator in 2024.

*Disclaimer*
Please note that the Auto Translate function by YouTube provides translations of very poor quality and I suggest to only use it very sparingly. I always offer people to subtitle the videos into their native language if they want to build up a portfolio. In that case, drop me a message to:

Great video! Thank you for sharing this information.

Thank you for this video, Adrian! You gave me some really valuable advice on finding direct business clients. So far, I have mostly worked with agencies but I have experienced a large decrease in the number of jobs they are sending me. For this reason, I am looking for connecting with direct prospects and focusing on gaining direct clients to provide a steady flow of projects/income in the future.

Hi Adrain,

Thanks for the video; it was beneficial .

I have been translating different types of videos for the past couple of years, and I used to post them on Instagram and Snapchat. I used to translate English videos for an Arabic audience, and now I am working on finding a way to make an income out of it.

[tamirsharawneh]

Great video Adrian. For some reason, it made me more motivated to try harder, and I feel that all of the information in the video are really relevant in 2024.

[saravictoriazapata]

That was great! Thank you so much. I will use your tips they are so inspiring. I was feeling a bit down because it's been 3 weeks since I had my last translation job but I will try and do these tips❤

10:12 Thank you for this part! I've just started as an interpreter with an agency, and I will need the 1 year expecience to focus on the Medical interpreting jobs as a freelancer. I would also like to thank you for your channel, because a year ago I started following your videos and guidance in order to become a freelance translator and ended up finding my profile as an interpreter. Thanks to Anita for the professional and kind responses as well as the valuable tips by email!

[JoaoCampos-uibm]

Hi Adrian! Thank you for the insightful video. It offered many clues and suggestions on what to do to be successful in this area. I'm a full-time freelance translator with more than 13 years experience and worked mostly with translation agencies. Time to revert that. Thank you. João
