# Russian Translator Internship at CryptoMize

A Russian Translator at CryptoMize converts dossiers, intelligence reports, campaign material, and web content between Russian and English. The Russian language work supports engagements across our 18-country footprint — including CIS-facing material — where register-accurate Cyrillic translation decides how a position is received.

Apply now for the Russian Translator Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a 6-month certified program on rolling intake for translators working seriously in the Russian language. Russian Translator interns handle real engagement material from the early weeks: monitoring inputs translated Russian-to-English, outbound client material translated English-to-Russian, web content, and correspondence — all under senior review, with the register discipline that official Cyrillic material demands. This page is the complete internship description: language skills, eligibility, training, and selection process.

## Questions and answers

### What does a Russian Translator intern do at CryptoMize?

A Russian Translator intern translates real engagement material both directions — Russian-to-English monitoring inputs and English-to-Russian client material — under senior review, maintains the engagement terminology base, and produces Russian web content where native output is required.

### What is the meaning of Russian Translator as a role?

A Russian Translator is a language professional who converts written material between Russian and English while preserving meaning, register, and intent — at CryptoMize, additionally choosing between formal and natural register correctly for everything from official documents to campaign copy.

### What is the eligibility for the Russian Translator Internship?

Final-year students and recent graduates with professional-grade written Russian (CEFR C1-level or TRKI-equivalent demonstrated ability) and strong English. The screening translation decides — we evaluate the work, not the paperwork.

### Is the Russian Translator Internship paid?

Compensation is discussed during screening and depends on demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record. We deliberately do not publish figures — every intern is evaluated and compensated individually.

### How long is the internship, and is a certificate provided?

The program runs 6 months at our New Delhi HQ, with a certificate on completion and a bilingual portfolio of shipped engagement material. Strong interns receive full-time offers.

### What is the selection process for the Russian Translator Internship?

A short application, a translation screening exercise (a short passage each way between Russian and English), and a final interview with the translation lead covering your register, transliteration, and terminology choices on the sample. Typical cycle: about two weeks.

### Can I apply if Traditional-focused Chinese or another language is my second strength?

Yes — multi-language strength is welcomed and noted in staffing decisions, but each application is evaluated on the language of the role you apply to. Apply to the Russian Translator Internship on your Russian; mention additional languages for the floating-staffing picture.
