    Prisma is actively seeking qualified, professional, US-based Spanish Interpreters to join our team. As a Spanish Interpreter at Prisma, you will be supporting Federal Government clients with remote OTP (Over-the-Phone) interpreting assignments. We offer flexible weekly schedules that provide you with regular assignments from 16 to 30 hours per week.

    Please note: This role requires a U.S. government security clearance known as Public Trust, granted after a comprehensive background check. Therefore, we are specifically seeking applicants who currently hold this clearance or a similar one from a U.S. federal agency. If you've previously undergone a detailed background check by a U.S. government agency for a job, it's likely you either possess this clearance or could be eligible for a streamlined security screening process. It's crucial that applicants, who we may support in obtaining this clearance, are confident in their ability to do so.
