N/A Jun 8

This question makes me wonder if Proz staff live in the same world as me. Talking about the ‘highest increase’ is ironic, to say the least. I’m still getting work from my loyal clients, but I can’t exactly say there’s been an increase high or low…

N/A Jun 8

I don't keep track of demand in specific fields, but I've received a few touristic/cultural projects lately that had been absent for years before that. In conventional translation, by the way.

On a sidenote: I see no problem with this question. I believe it's a perfectly normal question for people that are still fully in business.

Identity fraud/sale of data Jun 8

Without doubt, the field of identity fraud. After all, data is a currency.

Requests for unredacted statements, bills, receipts and so on, including all sorts of personal details.

You have to question the mindset of sites that promote this sort of "work", as well as the people who engage in putting their personal data at risk, even more so when moving into minimum-wage employment would be more lucrative and secure.

Question is broad. Jun 8

High demand for HT and/or MTPE in igaming, medical and patent. And as Cristina said in AI. But I wonder if these are translation jobs whatsoever.

Yes, everything related to AI Jun 9

As Cristina mentioned. And for sure all sorts of courses/webinars, etc. that target at it: AI Specialist, Expert, Consultant, you name it.
