There were issues of disagreement over the way things should be translated which is understandable. However, spelling, grammar or punctuation mistakes were common in the responses. When those mistakes were pointed out to candidates, some of their responses were as follows: (these are real answers) "I wasn\'t at the desk that had the software to do the Spanish accents" "I am not as accurate with a sample as I would be on a job" "The English wasn\'t grammatically incorrect so it made me make mistakes in the Spanish" I am looking for someone that can translate a few sample paragraphs without any simple mistakes in spelling, punctuation and grammar.
