Work methodology

• All projects must be conducted BWX, unless otherwise requested by the PM
• You must complete the work in BWX, including the QA checks.
• If you accept a project, you commit to delivering within the deadline. If you recurrently miss project deadlines and/or fail to pass our Quality Assessment, you may not be eligible for new jobs
• Payments are made based on the BWX's post-editing log file, which applies discounts for repetitions. 

Language pairs

In order to better guard the quality you provide, we keep to the following principles:

• You can translate from 1 source language into your native (target) language.
• You become a member of our community after taking and passing a language test, after which you will be able to view and accept jobs based on availability. We can't guarantee the number or size of jobs in any given language pair.
• You preferably live in the country where your native (target) language is spoken
• If you want to replace your current language pair with another, you will need to test for the new language pair. If you pass the test, the new language pair will replace the old one.
