Format of interviews
You will mainly be involved in interpreting for five types of branches/units of the MBIE.
Code of conduct guidance for interpreters and translators
This builds on the requirements for all employees and contractors working for/with the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment (MBIE) as set out in the MBIE Code of Conduct 2015.
Ethics of the profession
You must adhere to the major ethical principles concerning accuracy, conflicts of interest, impartiality and neutrality, and confidentiality.
Interpretation
The type of interpretation you choose will depend upon the circumstances. Throughout MBIE, we always use consecutive interpretation.
Disciplinary procedures for interpreters
All complaints are taken seriously and investigated to ensure that fairness and transparency have been carried out.
Branch addresses
While the Interpreter Coordinator is the central contact for interpreters registered with the MBIE, all payment enquiries need to be directed to the branch where the work was carried out.
