How do you maintain terminology consistency across a large patent project? I create and follow client glossaries, use CAT-tool terminology functions, review prior approved translations, and perform targeted consistency checks before delivery. How do you approach machine-translation post-editing for patent text? I verify every segment against the source, correct terminology and syntax, remove literal or ambiguous phrasing, and ensure that the final output meets the same standard as human translation. Describe your quality-control process before submitting a translation. I conduct a bilingual review for completeness and meaning, run automated QA checks for tags and numbers, review terminology consistency, and perform a final monolingual readability pass. How do you manage urgent assignments and communicate project risks? I assess volume and complexity at the start, confirm feasible deadlines, provide prompt progress updates, and flag terminology questions or capacity risks early so the team can resolve them without delaying delivery.
