Hi, Sir/Madam
I am writing to see enquiries whether you would like to work with Chinese<>English translator and project manager. I have nearly six years' experience in the translation business as translator and project manager since my graduation in 2005 from a top 10 university in China. In 2011 alone, I finished translation of around 500.000 words by myself and managed over 2,000,000 words. I also work very closely with translation agencies in Europe, Mexico, India and Japan. I have very extensive business experience and lawyer’s mindset, so I have very good understanding of what kind of end product the customers expect. I have knowledge on law, finance, economics, management, literature, Mechanics and IT through formal education and learning by doing. Additionally, I can use Trados and Wordfast and have a passionate interest in the latest CAT technology.
Thanks for your considering me for this position!
Yours Cordially
