Most U.S. employers cannot verify a foreign degree on their own. An evaluation gives HR a clear answer, so they can:
Without one, HR may hold your application until your credentials are clear. A MotaWord report gives them that answer in a format they already know.

Read all 1,744 reviewsThis service is absolutely top notch. I was hesitant at first but the online messenger assured everything would work out. My project was to translate cursive Spanish to English. 100% satisfied. I've already used them for a second document and nailed it again.
Amazing Customer Services. Support team always available and with 100 percent knowledge in hand. Prompt response, be it any information or query. Too good. As far as my experience is concerned, I have not seen any other team so efficient and supportive. Keep it up
I submitted a document for quote. I got a quick quote. After I paid the invoice, the translation was done within a day. I received an email that my translation was ready and it also contained the download link. The service is quick, personal, and comprehensive.
I had my diploma translated by Juguo Zhang and received it back in less than 12 hours. The translation was professionally done and even officially notarized. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable. I’ll definitely use their service again in the future.
