I *think* I sent them a resume for a job-job position, but they replied like a translation agency might. Place does...I'm not sure what exactly it does, not anymore. I was under the impression that they're looking for translators for their own internal needs, something biomedical, but it now seems more like an agency.
They want me to fill in the following rates form:
Translation rate word: Translation rate hour: Post-editing rate word: Post-editing rat... See more

Russian into English (...I think and hope) or maybe English into Russian (less preferable). And they want me to own MemoQ, as the pre-filled form seems to suggest, which seems to be like $800ish after a month of free trial.
Please advise on sustainable rates to quote them that are likely to get a positive response, and which would justify possibly having to buy this software before the extent and regularity of this relationship becomes clear. I'm located in California and am somewhat underemployed at the moment, but not to the point of wanting to work for third-world sweatshop rates.
I've got existing clients at rates of 0.05 to 0.10 USD / word

IQVIA is a major technology corporation that has nothing to do with translation business. 5 years on Fortune 500 list, which make the whole thing sound like another scam using names of big pharma, publishing houses etc.
Please go through Scam Alert forum, just in case.
"I *think*" and "job-job" is not the best way to describe your situation for us to understand and give advises
