CV, references, letters of recommendation: available upon request. Some testimonials

"If I were to condense my appreciation of her performance into one word, I would say it is „ideal”. Being the ideal translator means significantly more than what is generally expected from a translator, such as the flawless interpretation of the original text or the sound knowledge of English idioms. Ildikó’s commendable commitment to precision in her work drives her to investigate apparent contradictions and lack of clarity in the original texts. [...] Importantly, Ildikó’s command of both English and Hungarian is excellent. She is also an avid learner [...] Ildikó’s work merits appreciation in other respects as well: she can be relied on, she works fast, and keeps to deadlines even when they may be pressing."

"She is available within short notice and never misses a deadline. She delivers high-quality translation while paying attention to the tiniest details. We definitely recommend her services."

"Her thorough knowledge of CAT tools and the computer-related aspects of translation has proven valuable."

"Her uncompromising attention to quality makes her the perfect choice when you need fast, accurate translation."
