Hello/Merhaba,
I am writing to you to express my interest in being considered for the translation job you advertised. Currently based in London, UK, I am a doctor in Sociology and a translator/editor with 8 years of experience in my home country Turkey where I translated books, articles, news, blog and website content and manuals for diverse audiences (from English to my native Turkish, and from Turkish to English). Meeting deadlines is of uttermost importance for me and I always strive to provide the highest professional standard in translations to ensure that they are engaging, accessible and relevant for the target audience while fully conveying the content of the original.
I am available to begin working as soon as required and my rate per word is $ 0,01, which I, as a new freelancer here, hope will meet your budget considerations. If you wish, I would be happy to send you a sample of my work as well as provide you with a sample translation of your project.
Thank you very much for taking the time to consider my application. I look forward to hearing from you soon and discussing the further details of the role.
Kind regards
Esen
