REMOTE | INDEPENDENT | WORLDWIDE

To perform General Transcription, you must transcribe voice recordings accurately into a written transcript that meets specific format and style requirements set by the client. The voice recordings cover various topics such as business, IT, consumer goods, insurance, medical content, academia, and finance. The recordings may feature single or multiple speakers, and the audio quality can vary, so a high level of comprehension is essential to pick up on nuances in the recording. To handle the diversity of transcription topics, you need a broad vocabulary and strong research skills, and an excellent command of the English language, including grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure, is necessary to produce a reader-friendly transcript. You must also have outstanding auditory and memory skills, along with a typing speed of at least 60 words per minute, to transcribe 30-120 minutes of audio within a 12-hour deadline. Due to the volume of work, we prefer to work with full-time independent contractors who can work remotely from anywhere.
