Resume and CV Translation
A resume translated in full: the work history, dates, job titles, education, skills and references, in the order your resume already uses. A plain translation is what most job applications need, and the certified version is the same translation with the signed statement behind it. From $54 per document.

What a Resume Translation Covers, and When It Needs a Statement
A resume is considered by someone deciding whether to interview you, so the translation follows your layout rather than reorganizing it. One thing has to be settled before it starts: whether certification is required, which depends on who asked you for the translation.
What the translation covers
-
Work History: each position with its title, employer, location and dates, including a role held abroad where the resume records the country rather than a city.
-
Education: schools, colleges and universities with the degree names and dates as written, and the grading system explained where it would otherwise be misread.
-
Job Titles: a title is translated to the nearest equivalent a US employer would recognize, with the original kept in brackets where the equivalent would overstate the role.
-
Skills and References: certifications, licenses held and software named exactly, with referees' contact details carried across so a recruiter can reach them.
Before you order
The one thing to tell us up front is whether it has to be certified.
-
If an Employer Asked: a plain translation is usually what is wanted, and no statement is added to the file.
-
If an Official Body Asked: a filing, a licensing board or a university may require the signed statement, so say so and it is added behind the translation.
-
Length: a two-page resume sits at the $54 floor, and an academic CV running past 400 words is charged at $0.12 per word into English.
Send the file you would hand to an employer, and say whether it needs to be certified.

Frequently asked questions
DHCTranslations translates resumes and CVs from a New York base and emails a PDF, adding a signed translator statement when an official body requires one rather than an employer.
A resume of up to 400 words is $54 at DHCTranslations, which covers most two-page resumes. Past that the rate is $0.12 per word into English, and $0.14 per word from English into another language.
Only if an official body has asked for one. A hiring manager does not need a certificate, while a filing, a licensing board or a university may, and you will usually have been told which applies.
A signed page naming the translator, the languages and the date. The translated resume is identical either way, so the statement changes who will accept the document, not what it says.
No. It is translated in your layout and your order, because a resume you may be asked to produce again should still be the one you wrote.
Yes. Sections already written in English are left alone and the rest is translated, so the result reads as one document instead of a mixture.
A two-page resume approved before 4pm ET is usually emailed by DHCTranslations the same day, and an academic CV with a publication list is given a date once the word count is known.
Yes, and they are priced by word count. Publication titles stay in their original language with the journal or publisher translated, so a citation can still be traced.
Usually. Order the version with the statement and it works for both, since the statement sits behind the translation rather than replacing it.
A Word file or a PDF is easiest, and a flat photograph of a printed resume works if it is legible. Send the version you would hand to an employer.
