hi ReDICo Community, I found this job advertisement, issued by a video translation enterprise from Vienna. Honestly, I don´t know, how they are. They have several vacant job positions on their website. Good luck! Yours, Roman (ReDICo). (PS: the deadline and the estimated start date are random dates, because the job ad doesn´t say anything about that.)
