Any miscommunication could cause a deep finan- cial loss or death. Some in the industry work in war zones while others have cozy home offices. "The stakes can be huge," said Lillian Clementi, 55. " T h e r e 's t o n s o f t i m e pressure." The business is language. And it's booming. The number of jobs for translators and interpreters doubled in the past 10 years while their wages steadily grew before, during and after the reces- sion. Jobs are expected to grow 46 percent between 2012 and 2022, according to the Labor Department, making it one of the nation's fastest growing occupations. During a period of stag- nating wages across the labor market, the language- service industry with its 50,000 jobs is a bright spot in the jobs outlook. Clementi is a French translator who works in corporate communications from her home in Arling- ton, Va. Clementi is rou- tinely on tight deadlines to submit translated material. One of Clementi's former clients, a French company, routinely would send her legal documents to translate at the end of France's workday — about midday on the East Coast. Clementi would translate the material and email it to another translator in Aus- tralia to double-check it. Then the Australian trans- lator sent the translated documents back to France before the company's offices opened the next day in Paris. "It had literally gone around the globe," said Clementi, who translates French into English.
