Remote Medical Interpreter Jobs: Lingtopia Group Hiring Bilingual Interpreters
Overview
Lingtopia Group is hiring remote medical interpreters who can support patients and healthcare providers who do not share a language. The positions are full-time and involve both Over-the-Phone Interpretation and Video Remote Interpretation, so the work can be done without being based in a healthcare facility.
Who can apply
The company is looking for bilingual candidates fluent in English and one of the following languages: Karen, Korean, Russian, Mandarin or Cantonese. Strong verbal communication skills are needed, along with accuracy, confidentiality, professionalism, empathy and cultural sensitivity. Experience in healthcare, interpretation, customer service or another communication-focused field may help, depending on the employer's specific requirements.
What the role involves
A medical interpreter acts as the communication link between patients and healthcare professionals. Depending on the assignment, conversations may cover appointments, medical histories, treatment information, diagnoses, procedures and medication instructions. The work requires accurate rendering of whole conversations rather than word-by-word translation, with attention to detail in sensitive situations.
What you get
The advertisement lists full-time employment with paid time off and medical insurance.
How to apply
Candidates send their CV directly to Lingtopia Group by email. The CV should show language abilities, interpreting and professional experience and relevant education, and applicants who are fluent in more than one of the listed languages should state which language they are applying to interpret.
