Give us a paragraph or two about your background and why we should be interested in hiring you. �Please include any type of related qualifications that you think might help you, as things such as previous translation work and free time to work for the site are a major plus.

Assignment

Find a Japanese news item from a Japanese news source and provide a translation into English as if it was ready to publish on tokyohive.

The topic of the news item should be something you�re interested in, and it should be at least three paragraphs long. We value your own voice in the articles so be original.

As with any writing assignment, things like grammar, spelling, flow, and vocabulary will be important.
