We will promote your profile and skill set among recruiters and clients, and int-conf.com will also support you in expanding your clientele (private market clients, head interpreters at international organizations, etc.):

• We will highlight your profile and send your CV to recruiters and clients with whom we have direct, close, and long-term contact.
• We maintain regular communications with all recruiters and clients to promote your skill set.

We will put you in direct contact with recruiters and clients:

• We create a personalized list of the main recruiters (depending on your languages, skills, and interests) with their phone and e-mail info (major organizations, institutions, private market).
• We share advice and best practices for getting in touch with prospective clients.
• We will put you in touch with conference interpreting colleagues already on the market during your initial assignments.

We will help you pursue the conference interpreting career of your dreams:

Int-conf.com supports you by providing you with the tools you need to keep track of your schedule and assignments in real time:

We manage your real-time, personalized calendar:

• We actually work with two calendars: one for each interpreter’s eyes only (showing details about each assignment) and a second one shared with recruiters showing only one of the following: available – option – confirmed. This means that recruiters can view our interpreters’ availability, minus the details, in real time.
• This application allows each interpreter to update their own calendar anytime.
• You can manage your preferences for interpreting missions, unforeseen circumstances, scheduling constraints, and conflicting options for the same dates.

As your preferred partner to help you carefully select interpreting missions:

• We provide support in choosing missions, especially during the first few years when you are trying to kickstart your career.
• We help liaise with clients to gather practical information (hours, address, type of interpreting, putting together a team) and obtain documents for your preparation.
• Business administration advice and support (quote templates, invoicing, accounting, etc.)

24/7 availability:

• We are always ready to listen and answer any of your everyday professional questions.
• Real-time knowledge of all available opportunities (such as last-minute replacements and urgent TV assignments).
