Friylens for translators
Continue a little oldest topic for freelance activities (actually how it is customary to say in Bulgaria - freelance or friylEns?) And will try to focus on job opportunities for translators.
My first post can be found here
If you are now getting into the field of translation, I feel obliged to warn you that this is hardly the most suitable work on which to rely. I speak mostly for budding translators, no experience, but even old dogs can safely complain of degrading low pay they receive in most cases for their labor. Statistics show that the lowest paid interpreters are from Bulgaria, Moldova and China, and the best interpreters receive remuneration in Denmark, Germany, Portugal, Switzerland and USA. So if the situation here does not suit you, you can grab a suitcase and try a foreign land :)
Joke of the country. In total globalization in which we live is not necessary to travel across the ocean to find their respective employer. There are many search sites and offering friylens projects.
Sites offering friylens work:

http://www.ProZ.com/
http://www.TranslationDirectory.com/
http://www.translatorscafe.com/cafe/default.asp
http://www.elance.com/ - this is not just for translators, it has projects and designers, programmers, copywriters and any other free bird :)

in this line of thought, I would add that it is even better to find work as translators online, because you will pay Western standards, but will spend our money on :-)
only condition for translators to know English and another language (as unlikely there are many willing to BG transfers abroad :-) look very Russian and Spanish (normal), German is also ...
here's a list of article sites and 2 lines for more info from them - http://bit.ly/FreealnceProjectsWebsites - surely not an exhaustive list, and selected sites that have good reviews among freelancers
Success!
