MORE SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETERS BEING RECRUITED

More simultaneous interpreters are being recruited by the Government.

People who hold recognised university degrees or equivalent qualifications

and who have very high standards of English and Cantonese are invited to apply

for the posts.

Successful applicants will be engaged in the first instance, on a

part-time basis, with the possibility of full-time employment later.

The work will chiefly involve simultaneous interpretation at public

meetings of the Legislative and Urban Councils and meetings of Select Committees

of the Urban Council.

Perhaps, in the future, they will also interprete for Government

appointed Boards and Committees.

Remuneration for one sitting when working in a team of three and

two is $350 and $560 respectively.

Applications should be sent to the Establishment Secretary, Colonial

Secretariat, not later than April 10, 1973.
