Signs2go Interpreting has Jobs for CERTIFIED Sign Language Interpreters!

by Phyllis Bullon on 10/11/14

Signs2go Interpreting is looking for CERTIFIED Independent Vendor/Contractor Sign Language Interpreters to fill jobs that come in on a daily basis.

We are still a young company, therefore, we can only provide work to independent vendor/contractor interpreters at this time. We don't have enough work to hire full time/part time or guarantee hours at this time, but we have more work than we can handle without you!

We are looking for:

-RID/NIC Certified
-Texas BEI Level III/Advanced Certified or higher
-Court Certified
-Texas BEI Level I/Basic Certified with high skills who require just a bit of mentoring support to move up to that next level

To work with us, Independent Vendor/Contractor Sign Language Interpreters must have:

-a CERTIFICATION
-a good attitude
-ability to work autonomously
-ability to work in a team
-a good attitude
-a hunger for knowledge
-a passion for attending and/or presenting Professional Development workshops
-a good attitude
-ability and ethics to follow the Code of Professional Conduct
-a wardrobe of PROFESSIONAL attire that satisfies the CPC tenet and the common sense to follow the CPC tenet on attire (my OPINION of appropriate dress includes: don't show your belly, your bare back, your butt crack, your boobs, your bra or your armpits (especially if they are not shaved!). If you wear leggings, the shirt should be long enough to COVER the butt and jeans/pants should not be so tight that everyone can see your cellulite pucks! - people want a professional interpreter, not a street walker... Put yourself together- you are representing another human being who shouldn't be embarrassed when you show up!)
-a good attitude
-your own insured vehicle AND gas money to get to assignments
-a sense of humor
-a love of the Deaf community and an understanding of the Culture
-a good attitude
-a willingness to apply in front of a panel of Deaf consumers and certified interpreters
- a willingness to get the shots required to work in hospital/clinic settings if that is one of your preferred venues
-General / Professional Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance (I do carry this insurance on the company, but individuals with certifications could be subject to a separate lawsuit and should cover themselves as well. I do not list with any Independent vendor/contractor Sign Language Interpreters who do not protect themselves. When Signs2go Interpreting becomes large enough to HIRE and sustain staff interpreters, those interpreters will be covered under the company insurance.)
-a good attitude
-an appreciation for the people behind the scenes who gather information, procure contracts, handle scheduling/ invoicing/ collections, support paperwork, and spend their day in effort to spoil and pamper our interpreters
- and did I say... a good attitude!

The interpreters who list with us are cherished individuals who are knowledgeable, skilled, friendly, still learning every day, and looking to help me create a consummate team of professionals... with ethics and skills to make any Deaf consumer confident, in us, as service providers.

Come join us!

Although we are based in Fort Worth, we serve: Arlington, Dallas, Denton, Granbury, Grand Prairie, H-E-B, Irving, Midlothian, Mineral wells, Weatherford, Waxahachie, and other places too numerous to list.
