Experience
After graduating with a 2:1 from the University of Birmingham I went on to work for a translation company specialising in consumer and medical market research. As a quality assurance executive I developed a keen eye for detail working with Word questionnaires, PowerPoints, Xlates, XLFs and XMLs. During my time there I translated and proofread from French/Russian into English, localised English files, completed overlays from Word into XML and subtitled pharmaceutical videos.
