Hiring an Afrikaans language specialist: Job 00057425
Source language(s): English
Target language(s): Afrikaans
Details of the project: It’s training an AI chatbot (reviewing content in written form for a verbal tool) in different content types: travel, fast food, finance, technology.
Orientation: Creators will receive project o\rientation and training (approx. 2 hours, unpaid). Payment will only kick in once you successfully complete your first task. Orientation will include some short online modules, and training materials to use alongside the completion of actual production tasks.
Your job will be to imagine a particular customer support situation and then write up examples of things you (and people you know) might say on the phone. We call these statements “utterances”. For example, we may ask you to imagine that you want to change your flight for a trip you have already scheduled. We may also ask you to include a date in your utterance.
You would then write up several different things you or someone might say in that situation. Each one of the utterances you write would need to be different, using different kinds of words, different styles. You need to be very creative and write variations of each sentence in a way that uses as many new words as possible and uses a completely different sentence structure. And you need to be fast!
Sentences don't need to be long. They need to be unique and applicable to the situation. Realism is critical.
When you write an utterance, we want you to think about the kinds of references someone from your country would make. Specific companies, specific government entities, specific local currency, specific local slang, specific local brand names.
The specific job task will be to create one sheet of utterances per task. On the sheet, there will be several prompts (scenarios) and the creator will create several variants for expressing an utterance that relates to the prompt. All specific rules regarding spelling, grammar, punctuation, glossary term usage, and other specialized conventions (orientation will be provided) MUST be followed. If not, the creator will be provided with feedback and ask to edit their sheet of utterances until it complies with our quality standards.
This job is already available.
Special requirements to the applicants: Schedule: Approximately 10-25 hours per week.
Location: Remote.
Duration: About 3 months, with possible extension.
Pay Rate: $10 USD per sheet of utterances (1 sheet = 70 utterances).
Creators will receive project orientation and training (approx. 2 hours, unpaid). Orientation will include some short online modules, and training materials to use alongside the completion of actual production tasks. Payment will only kick in once you successfully complete your first task.
