You could try your luck on bountyhive although I'm not sure if they're accepting newbies but it says none of that sort on the rules and guidelines. I just confirmed with one of their staffs that a previous work/portfolio is not a prerequisite to be accepted. And yeah, it seems a couple of jr. members with no prior experience had already given a chance.
You can reach them on telegram, they're active there: https://t.me/bountyhive

Another idea could be doing some translation work on a site like https://www.xbtfreelancer.com/ where you get paid in btc, but more importantly can add some work/experience to your name. Might be worth a shot.
Cheers!

Thanks mate.
Yeah I thought about that, and wouldn't mine doing one or two for free.
I can't use any from work as it is confidential information.
Thanks a lot!

Hey guys,
I want to start translating documents English-Spanish. I am native to both languages, and I am a Solutions Architect / Technical Consultant so Im very technical as well. I do translations at work all the time.
I have been in Crypto for almost 2 years and I am an active Miner but I just recently decided to open an account here so my status shows as Newbie.
I see that most bounties regos ask for links to previous translations but I do not have any to show, so I am never chosen. Even talking directly to Coin teams doesn't seem to help. I have talk to them and say: "Hey you are a new ICO/COIN and people do not believe in you but you want people to give your project a go right? well I am on the same boat, Try me and see!"
Can you guys recommend the best way to get exposure so I can get one job to prove myself?
Thanks a lot!

I guess you could do some translations for free, and then ask them to vouch for them if they think you did a good job, you can build up a bit of a portfolio that way. Working for free is obviously going to be annoying, but it might be worth it in the long run.

Why not include those in your portfolio?

You go to find the new Bounty program and register, , in the Previous Translations you have entered "this is my first translation" or whatever you want. Someone will choose you. good luck.
