The problem
Why can't great interpreters find work they deserve?
The market runs on degrees, resumes, and who you know, and it forgets your skill the moment a job ends.
Connections beat skill
Degrees, affiliations, who you know: everything but your actual ability decides who gets the work.
Forced into a price race
With no way to prove quality, interpreters end up competing on price alone. Skill never commands its worth.
Your skill stays invisible
Do great work and the next client never hears about it. With no formal way to show skill, years of work end up as one line on a résumé.

How your skill is judged
A test is how your skill becomes visible
Not a gate to survive: the way your ability is proven, in the terms the work actually demands.
Reviewed to join, tested to match
To join, you upload your résumé and a profile photo, and the MetaPret team reviews them before approving your profile. When a request comes in, a test is built for that request's field and format. The match goes by that test, because it shows the skill the moment actually needs.

Every test is scored on the same three axes, in each direction, and cross-checked by an AI Monitor. A professional evaluator confirms the result, and MetaPret makes the final selection.
