Telephone interpreting
In the case of telephone interpreting, the individual in need of the interpreting service and his client are usually present in the same room, while the interpreter is connected to them via telephone. Telephone interpreting is cost-effective, eco-friendly and fits well in situations where, for example, you want to protect the health of all participants.

What should I consider when hiring a telephone interpreter?
Make sure that you, your discussion partner and the telephone are positioned forming a triangle. The telephone should be located at the tip of the triangle and you and the person you are talking to should sit opposite each other in order to be able to make eye contact during the call.
Speak clearly and remember to pause so that the interpreter does not have to translate too much information in one passage.
When is telephone interpreting the best solution?
We recommend that you use an interpreter over the phone:
When you need an interpreter at short notice.
When you need an interpreter with special skills.
When you need interpreting in a less common language.

When do I need sight translation?
When do I need sight translation?
Sight translation is when the interpreter also directly translates a document orally during an interpreting assignment.
If you need to have both speech and written documents interpreted, such as reading documents aloud or giving a short oral summary of documents, you can book this at the same time as you book your interpreter.
