This study aims at understanding how a society perceives the translator by analyzing 357 job advertisements for a variety of translation-related positions that were collected from January to December 2015. Based on empirical data, the paper attempts to investigate the current status of the translation profession in Korea from the perspective of those who employ translators. Up until now, translator studies on the role and status of the translator have been focusing on the translator's self-image, utilizing questionnaire survey and in-depth interview methodologies. Self-image consists only a part of the overall perception of the translator, thus outside-in perspective is required to counteract the bias to inward focus. Job advertisements provide a means of gaining some insight, particularly as viewed from an employer's perspective. Data analysis of this study reveals what types of positions, languages, regions, domains, qualifications, and skills are required for translation-related jobs. Amid rising concerns over deteriorating market conditions for the translator, the result can be utilized in identifying the current status of the translator, having implications for translator training curriculum. Despite limitations of the data analyzed in this study, the paper shows how a society perceives the translator, adding diverse perspectives to translator studies.
Abstract
This study aims at understanding how a society perceives the translator by analyzing 357 job advertisements for a variety of translation-related positions that were collected from January to December 2015.

Up until now, translator studies on the role and status of the translator have been focusing on the translator's self-image, utilizing questionnaire survey and in-depth interview methodologies. Self-image consists only a part of the overall perception of the translator, thus outside-in perspective is required to counteract the bias to inward focus.
