Rolling along

Get out your party hats...Last week I had my first paid jobs! Three small translation jobs and some proofreading. My mum got so excited when she heard she had to call me up! I also had an interview in a swanky part of London for what I hope will be regular contract work so that was all quite exciting - plus it was nice to pretend to be a swanky office lady for the day.

I have found recruitment sites to be a good source - as well as agencies actively looking for German to English translators, I have also found a few adverts for "normal" companies looking for part-time translators. So now that all the confusing bank holidays are over (for a couple of weeks at least), I am hoping that work will start flooding in!

My bank holiday was spent in beautiful Essex...

(seriously, who knew Essex was so delightful?!)
