Experience
Web Developer / Translator (2004 – 2006)
I worked at International Translators s.à.r.l, a leading translation agency in Morocco, I created and maintained the agency website, at first the website was supporting French only, but as soon as it started to get a descent number of visitors and attract clients I added support for English, later – in collaboration with co-working translators, I added more languages.
In addition to performing common updates and fixes, I was in charge of dealing with international clients who contacted the agency through its website.
I was also assigned to translate most of IT related documents (those to be translated into Arabic).
