# Japanese Translator Internship at CryptoMize

A Japanese Translator at CryptoMize is a language professional who converts intelligence, reputation, and campaign material between Japanese and English — dossiers, media monitoring output, and client correspondence — with the accuracy and register discipline that political and corporate work in Japan demands. It is translation where a mistranslated nuance has consequences.

Apply now for the Japanese Translator Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a 6-month certified program for japanese-language talent on rolling intake. Japanese translators here work where the language actually matters: translating intelligence findings for our Japan engagement, monitoring Japanese media and social platforms for reputation clients, and localizing campaign material with the register discipline (keigo) that professional Japanese communication demands.

## Questions and answers

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

A Japanese Translator intern translates intelligence, reputation, and campaign material between Japanese and English, monitors Japanese media for engagement coverage, and localizes client material with correct register — real bilingual work where nuance carries consequences, from month one.

### What Japanese language skills are required?

JLPT N2 or above is the working floor, N1 preferred for client-facing material, plus excellent written English. Register discipline — choosing keigo levels correctly per audience — matters as much as vocabulary, because in professional Japanese the formality level is part of the message itself.

### What is the eligibility for this internship?

Final-year students or graduates with certified JLPT N2+ proficiency and strong English. Formal degrees are secondary to demonstrated bilingual craft (clinical-licensed roles are the only exception).

### Is the Japanese Translator Internship paid?

Compensation is discussed at screening and depends on demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record. Figures are never published — each intern is evaluated individually. — bilingual craft and JLPT level being the primary weights in your evaluation.

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

Six months at our New Delhi HQ with certification on completion, plus a portfolio of real bilingual engagement work — the strongest credential a translator can hold, because every piece in it can be verified against a live engagement it served.

### What is the selection process for this japanese language vacancy?

A short application, a translation test passage (Japanese↔English) on realistic engagement material, and a live language review with the lead. Typical cycle: two weeks.

### Can I apply if my JLPT result is pending?

Yes — pending N2 results can be assessed through the translation test passage instead. Certification formalizes the seat; the live language review decides it. Candidates whose register judgment is strong but paperwork is in process are exactly who the test exists for.
