What kind of work does an interpreter do?

Interpretation is the oral transmittal of a message from one language into another language. As an over-the-phone interpreter, you will listen to a limited English speaker, analyze the person’s message, and accurately convey its meaning to a Language Line Services client.

Each call is a three-way conversation between you as our interpreter, our client, and our client’s limited English speaking person. Speaking in the “first-person”, you will go back and forth speaking for our client as well as the person who has limited English skills.

On any particular call, you may be helping someone who is…

* Calling 911 during an emergency,
* Reporting an accident to their insurance company
* Receiving instructions about completing a Medicaid form
* Making a police report
* Opening a checking account
* Applying for a credit card
* And so much more
