Dear Sir or Madam,

I am highly interested in your job offer as a Danish to German translator.

My name is Swantje Carstensen and I am 22 years old. I currently study translation and interpreting at University Leipzig. I only have one exam and the thesis left, so will be done very soon. Within my studies I learned about the importance of cultural aspects and style for the translation. My main language pair was English-German, but recently I started working with Danish, as I have developed my Danish skills up to a high level during a stay at Københavns universitet, where I obtained a B1 and a B2 certificate in Danish language. In about 3 weeks I will also hold the C1 certificate. I have no troubles with understanding Danish and I am native German speaker as well as an educated and experienced translator.

Furthermore, I have a C1 IELTS certificate and a UNIcert certificate for Business English.

I can assure you several things about myself, which I would consider as strengths for this job:

1. I am a native German speaker, so I have excellent grammar and spelling skills.
2. I am highly reliable and will ensure you to do my best to deliver you the best results.
3. I will always make it my priority to meet any deadline.
4. I took several tests on Upwork, which confirm my ability
5. I have experience in the field for translation: website translation (tourism), product translation, fiction, subtitles, app and card game. You may check my Upwork profile for references and reviews:https://www.upwork.com/o/profiles/users/~010283da5d60c94b8a/
So even though I am still a student, I could collect some practical experience in a relevant field already and I would like to continue that in order to become an extraordinary translator.

My previous clients have all been satisfied with my work like you can see in my Upwork ratings.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,
Swantje Carstensen

I live in Leipzig
