ProZ.com Connect! is the world's first sourcing and management platform built specifically for finding and selecting linguists.

The new state-of-the-art web service ("web 2.0") enables companies to rapidly and efficiently find, select and manage the language professionals they need from among ProZ.com's network—the world's largest—of over 170,000 translators and interpreters working in more than 100 languages.

ProZ.com Connect! was developed, beta tested and piloted over the past 10 months with the cooperation of 25 charter customers. Among them were six of the world's largest language companies, many mid-sized language companies and a number of global firms that purchase translation services.

Speed and cost savings: Charter users reported efficiency gains of up to 50% in finding required linguists. For larger companies, this time savings can equate to an estimated €15,000 cost savings per project or vendor manager per year.

More flexibility and control: Be able to see who will be informed of your job opportunity before you post your job. Plus your sourcing and candidate management account is private only to your company. Keep your sourcing activities private and not visible to your competitors or clients.

Greater exposure and broader reach: Connect with over twice as many translators as with standard job postings. Brand all communications with the ProZ.com translator network with your logo.
