Description

This is a Remote Position for applicants based in the Philippines ONLY!

TransPerfect Connect (TPC) is seeking highly fluent, professional bilingual speakers (English <> Korean) with experience using their language skills in a professional call center-style setting. We offer comprehensive, paid training to launch your career as an Over-the-Phone (OPI) and Video Remote Interpreter (VRI), helping clients across industries such as healthcare, legal, and financial services.

If you're excited by meaningful work and thrive on purpose, this role gives you the chance to use your language skills to make a real difference!

Interpreters at TPC play a vital role in facilitating accurate and culturally appropriate communication for limited-English speakers. Whether you’re supporting a patient during a medical appointment or assisting someone in accessing essential services, your bilingual fluency directly contributes to meaningful, real-world impact.

This is a structured, call center-style role that goes beyond casual or conversational bilingualism. Ideal candidates bring professional-level command of both English and Korean and must be able to interpret complex conversations with speed and precision. This includes idiomatic expressions, specialized terminology (e.g., medical, legal, financial), and emotionally nuanced content.

Success in this role requires strong active listening, emotional control, professionalism, empathy, and adaptability. Interpreters manage continuous live calls, often under pressure, while strictly following interpretation protocols to maintain neutrality, accuracy, and confidentiality.


  • Provide consecutive interpretation services between English and Korean across various industries (medical, legal, customer service, etc.)
  • Ensure complete accuracy, clarity, and neutrality in interpretation—preserving tone, intent, and emotion
  • Maintain confidentiality and impartiality at all times
  • Manage call flow professionally, including respectfully intervening when clarification is needed
  • Demonstrate emotional intelligence, especially in high-pressure or emotionally charged interactions
  • Apply short term memory retention, active listening, and note taking techniques to manage longer exchanges
  • Remain strictly within the interpreter’s role without offering personal opinions or advice
  • Participate in ongoing training, coaching, and feedback sessions to maintain and enhance performance
  • Utilize basic computer tools (MS Office, internal platforms) to effectively manage calls and log activity


What We Offer:

  • Four weeks of paid training (on-site or remote) covering interpretation techniques, note-taking, memory retention, call management, and emotional control
  • Hands-on role-play simulations and coaching led by certified interpreters
  • Ongoing development opportunities, including advanced training for complex call types
  • A meaningful opportunity to use your language skills to empower others, support critical conversations, and make a lasting impact
  • Career advancement opportunities across interpreting, QA, training, and leadership roles


Benefits:

  • Comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, vision, 401 (k), paid time off, company-sponsored life insurance, short-term and long-term disability, and flexible spending account options
  • Private health insurance and access to a collaborative, supportive team environment
  • A proactive and accessible HR department that focuses on the staff’s health and happiness

Requirements

  1. Fluent in Korean and English (not just basic or intermediate) FLUENT please.
  2. Willing to work full-time, NIGHT shift.
  3. Can start on September 22, 2025.
  • Philippine-based candidates only
  • Non-Filipino applicants must have SRRV or AEP
  • Must have a complete work-from-home setup
  • What are you waiting for?
  • Start your holiday season with a blast while using your language skills to help people!
  • Don’t think twice – join a guaranteed stable company and enjoy working at home forever!
