TRANSLATION TESTS AND OTHER LEGENDARY CREATURES

Translation tests.

Several fellow translators complain about the unfair behaviour of some companies, and I agree with their complaints. That's why I decided to give my two cents.

In my opinion, a translation test has to meet two basic requirements:

1. Ideally, it should be about 500 words. 
In some cases, perhaps for more creative writing, it should not exceed 1,500 words. 

2. No hurry! The translator can ask for a whole week to complete it.

If a translation test doesn't meet these requirements, then you must either drop it or charge for that translation.
