Interpretation after the speaker has finished.
The interpreter sits among the participants of the conference and listens to the speech that he/she subsequently interprets in other language. Usually the interpreter makes notes during the speech. Consecutive interpretation was currently nearly fully replaced by simultaneous interpretation, however it is still used on certain types of meetings (e.g. on highly specialized professional meetings, business lunches, meetings held in small groups, on business trips).
Highly experienced interpreters are able to summarize a 10-minutes or longer speech with high accuracy.
