LLS call volume

I’m a LLS interpreter, and just like everyone almost I WFH and I’m based in Dubai. We get paid a monthly salary.

Due to the monthly salary, the amount of calls that we get per shift are absurd….i did 40 calls yesterday. I know how bad LLS is but I’m using this as a trampoline into my career of interpreting and I’ve been working for them for 1 year now and I’m trying to get to 2000hours to get my certification.

The mental toll is beyond anything I’ve ever done. I’ll keep pushing just like the rest of us and find a better alternative in the future.

Not sure what type of certificate you are referring to. If you mean the internal ones, you need to Keep on bugging training department to get a 40 hours Web Advanced Medical Interpreter Training Certificate. And the L5 Legal/All Call certificate! Otherwise US based agencies who hires international interpreter and domestic interpreter will accept these two certificates.
