In my experience, I have had to deal with all kinds of translations; but through the years I have specialized in texts related to legal and tax and financial matters. As Julio says, specializing in a given area gives you the advantage of being one of the most qualified persons for a certain job. On the other hand, I dont recommend focusing on just a specific topic because it could limit your options. The way I see it, specializing in an area only means that I will feel more comfortable translating certain texts than others; but I will still accept the challenge of translating texts that are out of my domain. It will imply more work and research on my part, but it will also give me the chance to learn new things
By the way this is a very interesting thread mem !!!
