I then create idiomatic German copy that follows local stylistic conventions while maintaining approved terminology, campaign intent, and brand guidelines. What is your approach to translating UI strings with character limits and placeholders? I review context, screen purpose, variables, and character constraints before translating. I preserve placeholders exactly, prioritize clear and concise German wording, and flag source ambiguity or functional issues early for clarification. How do you perform MTPE while maintaining quality and efficiency? I assess the machine output against the source for meaning, terminology, fluency, and locale suitability. I correct errors that affect accuracy, readability, style, or user experience, while avoiding unnecessary rewrites that reduce productivity. How do you ensure consistency across large localization projects? I use translation memories, termbases, client style guides, and project reference materials throughout the work. I also run QA checks for repeated strings, numbers, tags, terminology, and formatting before delivery. How would you manage an ongoing workload of more than 5,000 words per week? I plan capacity around confirmed deadlines, break assignments into reviewable daily targets, and communicate promptly about questions or risks. This supports reliable delivery while preserving time for self-review and CAT-tool QA. Next step ## Apply now.
