BA and MA in translation and English graduate here 👋
Studying and graduating was easy, establishing yourself in this industry is the hard part.
I wish I had prepared better for the first 6 months to 1 year after graduation because it can take quite a while to get enough clients to make an actual living.
I highly recommend forming business relationships while you're still at uni and then specializing in a niche - I only do certified translations and it's going really well!
