Hey all, FYI that if you're interested in Japanese-English translation, and able to get to the Toronto area on May 25-26, IJET is having their annual conference there this year. I went when it was in Sendai and in Osaka and met a lot of great people and got a feel for what the industry is like, and I've heard others say they felt really welcome as newbies/students etc., so I'd highly recommend it if you're able to attend. So far I'm excited for Katrina's session on media localization, and the sessions on interpreting (I need them ðŸ˜) The keynote by a rakugo performer should be really interesting, too, especially since I've been following Akane-banashi for a while now so I have a marginally better understanding! Anyway, let me know if you have questions, and if you are able to go definitely say something so I can say hi!!
