It is a system where clients list a project with Aquarius and then the project details are automatically sent to every member of the Aquarius database who meets the project criteria. If I'm looking for English to French translators who specialise in legal work, I register the project details and if you meet these criteria you will be sent an email about the project. If so you must be sure to get yourself listed at Aquarius. If you already are listed you must make sure your details are up to date. Other features include e-mail alerts that notify you when a recruiter views your profile and a statistics page that shows how many people search the database each day.
Every potential client is able to contact translators through an online form.
However, no personal information is ever revealed without prior consent. Experts on the Web currently has a database of over 2100 professional translators and is growing rapidly. When I first started using the Internet, I found incredible sources of information for translators and interpreters. One of the very first sites I found was Aquarius. I was amazed at the type of information available to us and the dedication of those who provided the information.
