Sample interview questions
I review content in context and check grammar, spelling, punctuation, terminology, formatting, tone, and cultural appropriateness. I compare against approved glossaries and style guides, record clear corrections, and flag any source-text ambiguity that affects translation quality.
I would provide a concise title, product area, environment, clear reproduction steps, expected and actual results, severity, and supporting screenshots or recordings. For linguistic issues, I would include the current Lithuanian text, the recommended correction, and relevant contextual information.
A translation issue concerns linguistic quality, such as an incorrect term, grammar error, or unnatural phrasing. A functional localization issue affects how localized content behaves or appears in the product, such as truncated text, broken characters, an untranslated interface string, or an incorrect date format.
I prioritize blocking and user-impacting defects first, especially issues that prevent task completion, create misleading meaning, or violate legal or brand requirements. I then address high-visibility linguistic errors and formatting defects while following the project’s severity definitions and deadlines.
I rely on the approved glossary, translation memory, style guide, and prior validated strings. When I identify a terminology gap or conflict, I document the evidence, propose a consistent solution, and escalate it for confirmation before applying it broadly.
