Is on-site interpreting always the right option?
Like everything in life, needs, preferences and requirements can be very individual and are interpreting assignments. While on-site interpreting assignments was the most common one before the pandemic, the preference shifted. The three standard interpreting options are Video-Remote-Interpreting (VRI), Over-the-Phone-Interpreting (OPI) and On-Site Interpreting (Face-to-Face-Interpreting). On-site interpreting is liked because it is personal but when the budget is tight and there is obligation to attend in person, VRI and OPI is a great option, as well.
Interpreting Projects in New York, NY
New York City is one the most diverse cities on earth and is the home of a lot of different cultures and communities. But the interpreting market is a supply and demand market and even in a diverse place like New York, there may be deficiency for a certain language combination. Therefore, if the demand is low, the resources will be low, too.
However, like stated before, New York is a very diverse place and there are over 200 different languages spoken in New York. It is also the home of ASL, Spanish, Russian, Yiddish, Haitian, Italian, Bengali, French, Arabic and Korean communities. The probability to have an on-site interpreter for the communities mentioned above is very high. For all other requests there is always the option to find an VRI and OPI interpreter.
