We are looking for native speakers of Bulgarian to help us localise our product. what3words is a global addressing company that has given every 3m x 3m square on the planet an address of 3 random words – for example, our London office is located at ///index.home.raft. 3 word addresses are more accurate than street addresses or postcodes, but much easier to remember and communicate than 16 digit lat-long coordinates. Please read more here: [login to view URL], and do follow the links to have a look at our map too. You may also be interested in this example of a current project using our technology, in South Africa: [login to view URL] We are currently working to launch a Bulgarian version of our map, so that every 3m2 of the globe will have its own unique 3 word address in your language.

Work: Freelance from home (computer and internet access needed) Hours: Typically around 5-10 hours per week, but can be tailored to your particular circumstances Duration: 4 months in total from commencement of project

Hello there, my name is Boris, I am a native Bulgarian currently living in Germany. During the past few years I have established myself as a web-developer and computer-science researcher. However, I find the possibility to work with my own mother tongue and do something outside of coding interesting and challenging. During my high-school years, I have maintained excellent grades in Bulgarian grammar and spelling, therefore the quality of text will not be an issue. In the course of my university studies and student jobs I have learned to work with companies of different size whilst accomplishing tasks of complete diversity including (web development, creative writing, marketing, project management). I firmly believe to be the right candidate for this job due to my excellent language knowledge, international experience and team-work experience. Furthermore, I can offer to test the functionalities of your website or maybe do some web-development tasks for you. Thank you for your time! I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Boris Lyubenov

Dear what3words officer, I was excited to read about your product and watch the video about its social impact in South Africa, as well as see how my home city of Sofia has already been mapped in English. As a native Bulgarian speaker with a background in Education and NGO work, I am positive that I can select the most suitable words for the 3-words adresses in Bulgaria. Throughout my work I have demonstrated excellent command of the Bulgarian language and great attention to detail. I have strong writing and proofreading skills which I have used in grantwriting and project reporting. Apart from direct teaching, my experience includes preparing educational handbooks, maintaining an online database and providing librarian services. Thank you for your consideration. Please feel free to contact me if you have further questions. Kind regards, Elena Stateva
