Hello! My husband is gearing up for his onsite engineering interview with Intel. They say on the website that he should bring his CV and copies of his transcripts. Well, he isn't from the US and his transcripts are in a different language.

To all of you engineers and interviewers, since he has been working for 8 years in the field, perhaps we shouldn't spend hundreds of dollars getting his transcripts translated. My husband thinks it's not going to be an issue, as his diploma is in both languages. The gentleman who is arranging the interview didn't mention anything.

What should he do?? Just bring the resume and diploma, along with the transcripts in the foreign language or go ahead and spend the money to have them officially translated?

Is it really a non issue or is it important to translate them??
Thanks so much. I really appreciate the insights any of you involved in the industry can help with :)

I just called the local Intel office (there is one in my city, by chance). Their HR person said that you should contact the consultant or company rep. who arranged for your husband's interview, to answer that question (about having transcripts translated).

There was not enough information stated in your question for this Intel HR person to answer with a 'yes' (have it translated), or 'no'.

I am a retired Aero Engineer and spend 38 years in the Aviation Field. This may not apply fully with intel. Basically, I recommend a coat and tie for the interview, or if in doubt, wear such to the interview and at least the first day at work. After arriving at work, you should get an idea of the dress code. In general, the Aerospace industry I found quite informal as due to the high tempo and the high tech processes used by them. They normally hire people for the grey matter between their ears rather than being a flashy dresser. Now, we did dress up when we met with customers, high level meetings and dignitaries, but in my field, we were causual about 96% -98% of the time. Oh yes, a coat and tie for the interview would be mute if one did not take a bath also.

it'd be wiser to have them translated
