LanguageLine Solutions Intérprete interview questions

Yo estoy en Mexico con la compañia de outsourcing Human Quality. Ya que ven tu CV y les gusta tu perfil te hacen una entrevista en Ingles, la entrevista es breve y lo que quieren es escuchar que tan bien hablas ingles. Despues te mandan un examen de ingles el cual es una parte en escrito de gramatica etc. Y la otra parte oral y te hacen traducir en ingles a español y viceversa escenarios parecidos a las llamadas que se toman. Si lo pasas tomas un curso entrenamiento de 5 dias de 9 am a 4 30 pm con una hora total en breaks. El ent. es por una app tipo Zoom y se toma grupal con otros candidatos. El curso se me hizo entetenido y aprendes bastante en el tiempo que se toma. El ultimo dia del training te mandan el examen InterpreterSkillsAssesment y te dan 48 hrs para tomarlo. Y de ahi te piden todos tus papeles ya que dicen que si no los tienen no les dan los resultados del ISA. Y tambien te mandan a una clinica a hacer um antidoping. Y bueno stoy en este paso del proceso de contratacion.

I applied for the Bosnian Interpreter position. They scheduled a phone interview first. A nice and somewhat polite lady talked to me, and she first explained that this is a VIDEO interpreting position. Then she said that they pay $15/hour, 40 hours a week, give 10 days a year of UNPAID leave, and NO vacation time and that the job is pretty intense. They allow 30 min lunch break and two breaks of 15 min during the shift. I leave in California, and the shift time was from 8:30 am till 5 pm PST. They provide equipment, but high-speed internet is my responsibility. After explaining all that, she then asked how that sounds to me. Later she sent me a link to do their Language Proficiency Test over the phone, which I had to complete within 48 hours. Since I failed their test, I didn't go further from there. But I remember her saying that the next step would be another phone interview with additional people and all the usual steps after that. About the Language Proficiency Test: it had 18 questions, half in English and other in Bosnian. The questions were in the area of general topics but you need to elaborate as much as possible.
