Localization Engineer Interview Questions

843 localization engineer interview questions shared by candidates

I found their team to be very disorganized and very intrusive with their questions. Instead of testing me on case scenarios,they were actually looking for insights on companies I had worked for in the recent past. As part of the hiring process, they sent me a very simple language proficiency test with a few linguistic typos in the source files. This made me wonder if they proofread their work at all. Four weeks later, they sent me an email stating the translation was not good enough. I was perplex by this and asked them to forward the reviewer's notes. They never replied. I found the whole experience very unprofessional.

Tell me about yourself? What do you known about localization engineering? Have you ever worked with regular expression and what do you know about it? Did you worked with visual studio before? What do you know about the CAT tool?
