Interpreter Careers
Become A LanguageLine Solutions Interpreter Today
As an interpreter, you will listen to a limited English speaker, analyze the person’s message, and accurately convey its meaning to a LanguageLine Solutions client.
Each interaction is a three-way conversation between the interpreter, the client, and the limited English-proficient individual the client is attempting to communicate with.
Speaking in the first-person, the interpreter will go back and forth speaking for the client, as well as the person with limited English skills. Interactions may involve assisting someone to:
- Contact 911 during an emergency,
- Report an accident to their insurance company
- Receive instructions to complete a Medicaid form
- Make a police report
- Open a checking account
- Apply for a credit card
- A variety of other services

Interpreter Testimonials
"It is a wonderful job. You can work at home so you don’t use gas money to get to work. You don’t have to purchase special clothing. It is always exciting because you don’t know what your next call will be like. You do have to provide customer service, but this involves no selling or collecting."
"It is an enriching experience. I never knew until now how many people need the help of an interpreter. I feel honored and privileged to help others. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this company and also a part of an excellent group of Managers, Supervisors and all LanguageLine Solutions personnel."
"It is a challenging job. Every call is different and with unexpected events or outcomes. Every day provides a learning and development opportunity. It is rewarding to help other people even if you don't know who they are."
"I get to work with customer service, which I love. I can improve my English, and Spanish skills. Best of all, I do it all from home where I can see my baby during my breaks. What is not to love!"
