Hey guys!!

Dunno if any of you have got the same problem.

The thing is that I've got offer from some translation companies but they are unable to provide T2 sponsorship.

Just want to know if any of you have got a T2 visa or you happen to know a translation company that does offer

sponsorship.

Please let me knowwwwww.

Visa has driven me crazyyy.

1. This is a professional forum, not a whatsapp chat

2. I can't think of a reason why a translation company would offer sponsorship - unless you have a very rare combination and they need you in-house, most work can be completed online.

Good luck anyway.

1. LOL

2. It's funny you mention this. I was sponsored once by an Australian company for French-English translation position...

If the company cannot sponsor you - you need to find another potential employer.

Best of luck,

Grace

Hey Natasha,

I'm really sorry if this post bothers you. I was a little bit desperate, you know, after sending applications, getting interview calls, ending up with a No just because of the Visa thing. I thought there might be people who could be helpful here as many translators are using this website.

Indeed, I'm looking for in-house positions, like project managers.

Visa is so annoying!

Thanks for your reply anyway.

Heyyy Grace,

Thanks for your reply. You are definitely making me feel better now. >.<

I guess only people who have to deal with the visa thing understand how painful it could be. Thanks for giving me hope and I'll keep trying.

Have a nice day!
