Employment & Internships

The Spanish Department is looking for a Spanish major to help create an electronic newsletter for the department.  The student should know, or be willing to learn, how to create visually engaging pieces that can be imbedded into emails. The newsletter will be published once a semester, and may include interviews with students, faculty, Spanish speaking community members, and alumni.  Pay is $12 an hour for approximately 2 hours per week. Interested students should send an email to Professor Paul Schroeder Rodríguez at pschroeder@amherst.edu. 

My name is D.J. Trainor and I'm an Operations Manager over at RotoWire.com who's in charge of recruiting. We're a fantasy sports company based out of Madison, WI that provides content for ESPN, Yahoo!, BleacherReport, SiriusXM, NBA.com, and a number of other respected companies in the sports industry.

We're currently in need of bilingual soccer translators who can read and write in English and Spanish. We've recently decided to translate our English soccer content into Spanish soccer content, and we're in need of another 5-10 translators. Our current translators are paid $0.50 for each note translated (roughly 3-5 sentences) and $0.25 for each outlook translated (one sentence). These are part-time positions working from home translating player notes like the ones seen here: Latest Soccer News. 

Please spread this opportunity around to anyone you see fit. Interested applicants can email dj@rotowire.com to start the application process.

Thanks for your time!
