Information for Interpreters
As we all know, the national demand for interpreting services continues to outpace the availability of qualified interpreters. The greater DC metro area is no exception.
With the number of options available to interpreters, from working as staff, as independent contractors, or with agencies, we aim to be an attractive option for dedicated professionals. Here are some things that make AI stand out:
- We like to get to know interpreters before they start working with us. Our screening process lets us learn more about you and your interpreting abilities, allowing us to best place you on assignments in which you are interested.
- We are rooted in the Deaf community. We believe that effective coordination of high-quality ASL/English interpreting services rests in large part on having a thorough understanding of the needs and history of the Deaf community.
- Our staff is bilingual in ASL and English. Whether you want to VP, email, IM, text, or call, you can choose the most convenient method of contacting us.
In addition to those more philosophical characteristics, we also provide tools that streamline the logistical side of our business:
- A fully functional online system that allows you to make requests, view your schedule, and submit your invoices
- Direct deposit
- Medical, retirement and other benefits for core staff interpreters
