 ==========================================================================
The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

Description:

Our Junior Dictionary needs a pronunciation guide that is accessible
to 8 to 12 year olds. We are looking for someone to create a
user-friendly pronunciation system for children. We need around 18,000
transcriptions, either in a simplified version of IPA or using a
spelled-out system (already in place for some entries). UK-based
freelances would be preferable though not essential. You should be
experienced in English phonetics and capable of working to deadline
and to budget. Please contact Eleanor to find out more. Any comments
or queries are very welcome.  eleanor at geddesandgrosset.co.uk tel:
