There's lots of reasons ranging from the practical to the political to the personal why translators may wish to know the geographic location (country) of a job poster. Is this information available? If so I can't see it. TIA | | | Have you tried the Blue Board? | Feb 23, 2008 |
It should be available there. Cheers Stanislaw | | | Lia Fail (X) Spania Local time: 16:56 din spaniolă în engleză + ... INIŢIATORUL SUBIECTULUI and if not in the BB? | Feb 23, 2008 |

Yes, I see it when outsourcer info is provided. But since I'm not a member it is hidden in the more recent jobs in which outsourcer info is hidden from me:-) | | | Ralf Lemster Germania Local time: 16:56 din engleză în germană + ...
