Useful tips for ordering interpreting services
When planning an event or meeting:
- Specify the aim, topic and specifics of the interpretation to the project manager. Having this information he will appoint the most appropriate interpreter/-s;
- Agree on all the essential questions with the project manager, e.g. the topic of the event (or meeting), duration, agenda, number of interpreters, number of interpretation hours, language combinations. Confirm the information provided in the service order form;
- At the project manager’s specified time (but not later than 3 days before the scheduled start of interpreting) provide the material related to event or meeting, such as programs, slides, records of the previous events or meetings, reports, websites where it is possible to find more information, titles, other support material). Specify your needs and requirements. It will help the interpreter to prepare properly.
- If abbreviations and specific terms will be used during the event, provide their explanations and a contact person who could consult the interpreter/-s about various issues related to the interpretation;
- If you order simultaneous interpretation services, take care of interpretation equipment quality. We collaborate with a company that provides simultaneous interpretation services and, therefore, at your request, we will take care of both – interpreters and equipment;
- Inform the project manager about possible interferences for the interpreter as soon as possible (technical obstacles and other.)
Before the start of an event or meeting:
- Meet the interpreter/-s and confirm that previously arranged agenda (place of the event, time, and topic in advance, and other essential issues) remain unaltered. If there are any changes, inform the interpreter/-s about it immediately. On interpreter’s request, give him a chance to meet the announcers.
Before the start of an event or meeting that requires simultaneous interpretation services:
- Make sure that the interpreter sees the screen properly (sometimes the window of cubicle is scratched and non-transparent) and has a copy of slides, check the simultaneous interpretation equipment;
- Agree on signs that inform about technical obstacles or issues during the interpretation;
- Agree on scope and duration of the message in advance. Sometimes the announcers try to provide as much information as possible during a short period. They talk quickly and inconsistently, and it complicates the interpreter’s work;
- Remind the event moderator to ensure appropriate reading speed of a message;
- Ask the event organiser or another responsible person to monitor the interpreter’s showing signs and act to eliminate the obstacles (e.g. instruct the announcers to talk slower, clearer or deal with technical issues.)
During the break:
- Tell your remarks and requests to the interpreter. Inquire, if he needs your help;
- Inform the interpreter about unexpected agenda changes.
After the event, the project manager of the translation agency will inquire about the interpretation and ask you to fill in the review form. We kindly ask you to answer all the questions of the review form and send us via email.
The announcer aims to express the thoughts professionally and logically. His goal is to comprehend the thoughts and convey them clearly to the audience.
There is only one purpose that unites the event organisers and interpreters – both sides wish that the audience would be satisfied. For this purpose, it is necessary to communicate fluently.
