I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TransPerfect (New York, NY) in Sep 2012
Interview
Started with a phone interview and met face to face with the interviewer a week later. Took a small ability test at home which wasn't too difficult. General understanding of grammar and attention to detail will help you out. Interviewers were particularly nice. Was called in to meet the potential manager and the team before given an offer letter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing too out of the ordinary. List a few strengths / weaknesses. Talk about previous work experiences and where you see yourself in a few years. What do you know about the translation industry and why do you want to work for TransPerfect?
Over Teams with the Team Lead, together with the Project Manager in APAC. It was a short 30 minutes interview that allowed me to have a good understanding of the company and the role.
Interview process was short and went smoothly. First interview was with HR and then manager. In total I had 2 interviews. The interview process took 2 weeks and it was a good experience.
The interview process was lackluster and not very professional. I spoke with a couple of different folks but never got much clarity regarding the role and other aspects of the position.
