| Job Description | Full and Part Time Staff Interpreters
Sign Shares currently has 3 Staff Interpreter positions available. Staff Interpreters work exclusively for Sign Shares. They are supervised, provided ongoing opportunities for training and given first refusal for evening/weekend and emergency work. Sign Shares depends on staff to insure availability of personnel regardless of qualification necessary or advance notice. In return, Sign Shares consistently compensates staff at or above national standards, providing a teamwork environment with an excellent wage and benefit package. Duties and Position Staff interpreters are hired to interpret or transliterate in a myriad of community and educational assignments or in one specialty area, determined by personal interest and qualification. Staff may work additional administrative support hours as "lead" mentor or for special projects. Full Time Staff are assigned work during regular business hours, enjoy full benefits (employee status, regular payroll schedule, vacation, health, Workers Compensation, paid professional fees, and training) and are given first priority when qualified for special events, after hours and emergency assignment. Part-time Staff Interpreters work flexible hours, determining their own availability. Some may work an educational calendar or work primarily in another profession, while others may enjoy the freedom of making commitments on a daily basis. Part time staff may or may not be eligible for full benefits as benefits are determined by eligibility. |
| Qualifications | Qualification and Compensation
Candidates must hold a minimum of an AA Degree in Interpreter Training and State or National Certification. Seasoned, experienced interpreters and transliterators who have worked in the field for 3 to 5 years and are "otherwise qualified" are also encouraged to apply. Wages are based on education and certification, specialty training and years of experience. It is not unusual for a full time staff interpreter to earn between 40 and 80K per year depending on hours worked and qualification. Sign Shares will consider a moving benefit for interpreters who may wish to relocate. |
