Include Basic Details Every translator's resume should include
basic personal and contact details such as first and last name,
telephone phone number, physical address, and email address
Leave off information such as marital status, political affiliation or
religion; such information is not necessary and may be used as
grounds for discrimination during the hiring process

---

Check and Double-Check Attention to detail plays a key role in the
field of translation, don't be guilty of providing prospective
employers a resume riddled with grammatical or spelling mistakes
Thoroughly revise your resume; it is also a good idea to send it to a
trusted fellow translator for additional review

Keep It Simple Hiring staff spend a limited amount of time
reviewing each Curriculum Vitae; therefore, it is important to try to
keep things to the point The majority of translators - and specially
those just starting out - should be able to summarize their credentials
and background in one single page

Put Your Best Foot Forward Begin with the details about your
education if you have a translation degree but minimal work
experience On the other hand, if you can have years of translation
experience but little to no formal training in the translation arena,
focus on your work experience first

Tailor Your Resume and Cover Letter Make sure to include a
well-crafted, tailored cover letter for the position you are targeting
promoting your skills and qualifications if you're applying for a
job as a legal translator
