This is a freelance independent-contractor opportunity, not a salaried or guaranteed-hours position. Interpreters may choose when they are available and provide live interpretation on audio and video calls.

Projects may pay per interpreted minute or hour, with rates negotiated during the interview process and confirmed before onboarding.

This is an ongoing applicant pool for current and future demand. Applying does not guarantee an interview, onboarding, calls, or an assignment. VoiceLine LS never charges applicants to apply, interview, train, or onboard.
