I love typing, but I have zero creative ability to write. Zero. I've blogged before, but that usually means sitting at my computer for hours and writing a few clumsy sentences without moving on with any thought.
When I got pregnant with my first child, I wanted to require something I knew i used to be specialized at—typing, grammar, and punctuation—and turn it into an income-generating side gig that I could do at home. could do Can do
I found a course, Transcript Anywhere, and soon I found out that I had found something that would work and help me find transcription jobs that would lead to extra income. (If you want the details, here's The Right Life's review of the Transcribe Anywhere course.)
From what I hear from audio, it doesn't require creativity to write properly, unless you count the creative punctuation needed to break someone's long run-on sentence into smaller pieces.
It required everything I already knew I was good at, and the course taught me how to use those skills to build a business.
Now two years later, I have three kids (yes... a two-year-old, a one-year-old, and a newborn. No, we don't get much sleep). I'm still doing transcription jobs from home, and even though my family is growing and keeping me busier than ever, I'm making more money than ever from transcription as I get better at my job I am looking for good customers.
I work part-time as a foreign transcriptionist, about 20 hours every week , and i am ready to usher in about $2,000 a month for my family.
Where to look for transcription jobs
If you want to get into the world of transcription, I have compiled a list of companies where you should consider finding a job, which includes many options for legal transcription jobs.
They are ranked according to how much experience you need to work there and how much you can expect to earn through those jobs. So if you are targeting online transcription jobs for beginners, here are some of the best places to start with the first few things on this list.
Keep in mind that most of these companies pay an audio dio dio rate per minute, which doesn’t mean how long it takes to transcribe.
The general standard in the transcription industry is a 4: 1 ratio, which means that it usually takes about four minutes to transcribe one minute of audio.
Looking for an online transcription job here.
1. Rev.
One of the largest and most well-known transcription companies, Rev always recruits new applicants. There are tests that you simply need to complete before you'll hire - a rave transcription test and a grammar quiz - but it looks like work is usually available.
In general, you can choose your own schedule and work as much or as little as you want.
Rev has a reputation for low pay, about 30 cents to $ 1.10 per audio dio or video minute. But if you want to get started and when you are learning your skills and have a perfectly flexible schedule, this can be a good fit. This is one way to try out online transcription jobs and earn some money to see if you enjoy it before investing in training.
No experience required, however you must pass an exam. Rev also has options for video captioning work, which pays 54 cents to 1. 1.10 per audio or video minute, and if you know a foreign language, subtitle work for 1.50 to $ 3 per audio or video minute.
My friend and colleague Christy Cooley started working for the Rev and says: “I enjoyed having the ability to log in to settle on employment at any time of the day. Its system is also super user friendly! "On the opposite hand, she also reports that folks who grade your completed transcripts could also be inconsistent and should give different suggestions or feedback.
2. TranscribeMe
If you are looking for an online transcription job for beginners, transcription is another good option.
The company only pays 25 cents per minute for audio dio dio, but they break all their work into smaller pieces of two to four minutes. This makes this company a great choice if you have limited time to spend on transcription or if you want to experience a large amount of audio content.
3. SyncScript
SyncScript's pay rate isn't impressive yet, but it's higher than the first two options on this list, starting at 57 cents or 63 cents per audio dio minute, depending on the type of assignment. This is another company to consider if you want to get your feet wet in the transcription industry.
SyncScript almost always runs ads to hire a new transcriptionist. The company needs typing speed of 70+ words per minute and 98 percent accuracy. It also requires new candidates to pass a seven-minute test audio transcription and grammar exam. Once you arrive at the team, they ask you to be available to transcribe at least three audio dio hours each week.
About working for SyncScript, Cooley says: “Their communication is wonderful! Every single one of the files I've got is super clear audio. "
Focus Forward is another transcription company that allows you to do the maximum amount or as little as you wish .
It does all kinds of transcription, from focus groups, meetings and TV logging. The company Audio Dio Dio pays 40 cents per minute, paid by PayPal every week, you stay with the company longer. Also, applicants are required to pass a transcription test for quality.
Daily Transcription often announces new transcriptionists to join their team, and it pays a higher rate than some of the companies described above, about 75 cents to 85 cents per audio dio minute.
He trains so you can learn on the go, and he pays weekly by check. His work focuses on video and tv transcription, but you'll also find some legal and academic work.
Starting a daily transcription requires a skill assessment test and a transcription test, and you need to have at least 50 words per minute typing skills.
6. Ubiqus
I spent some time working for Ubicus when I first started, so I can be sure this is a good company to work for. The company offers general, legal and medical transcription jobs.
Ubiqus' pay structure is slightly different from most other companies; It pays per word instead of audio per minute. Salary rates vary depending on the content of the audio.
The per-word rate is hard to compare to the per-minute rate, and there are many variables such as how fast or slow a person speaks, but he gives or takes an average of about $ 1 per minute of audio. I personally prefer the rate per minute, because then you know exactly how much you will pay before you start it. With a per-word rate, you don't really know how much you'll earn on the job until you've already completed it.
7. Allegis
Allegis specializes in all types of industries, including insurance and legal transcription (so if you decide to take the legal version of the course anywhere transcript this company would be appropriate, where I took my training).
The company sometimes posts for beginners without any post-transcription experience. You just need to keep an eye fixed on their job postings.
The rates are proportional to the client contract, so Allegis doesn't provide a rate of pay on its website. Also, the quantity you earn for transcription jobs depends on how quickly (and accurately) you'll complete the assignment.
However, Glasdoor reports that the hourly salary is $2 to $ 36 for transcribing jobs, while one Reddit user says that if you write 100 or more words per minute you expect to earn $ 15 to $ 20 per hour. Can keep.
Comparing the per-hour or per-page rate to the per-audio-minute rate is challenging, but in general you have more earning power as a legal transcriptionist than a typical transcriptionist because it is a specialized field. Legal transcription jobs are usually formatted very precisely with a certain margin, a set number of lines per page, and a certain number of characters per line, so each page has the same amount of typing.
I haven’t worked with Allegis personally, but my transcriptionist friends say he needs a weekly quota from the transcriptionist, so you don’t have an equivalent amount of relief. It also has time with less work, so it’s not always consistent.
This is another option for finding a legal transcription job. Deposit Services, Inc. Provides a two-week online educational program for its legal transcription work.
He specializes in transcribing statements, hearings, conferences and seminars.
It pays a per-page rate, but it does not specify in public what the rate is, only that it is about $ 15 to $ 20 per hour.
The Audio Transcription Center has a much higher pay rate for its freelance transcription jobs than previously listed companies: 1 audio per minute.
Testing its transcription is challenging, and you'll probably need the right amount of experience - especially with focus groups involving multiple speakers.
Much of his work focuses on oral history interviews and focus groups. She has an online application and also needs a resume and a cover letter. It also requires a screenshot of a typing test showing a performance of 75 words per minute or more with at least 98% accuracy.
10. Scribie
Scribie offers general transcription jobs that you can do from home, providing freelancers with short audio clips of 10 minutes or less that you get to choose from yourself – this means you can work on any assignment. can. You are not obliged to do what you are not interested in.
Before you apply and take its certification exam, you can practice with its many practice tests to make sure your skills are up to par. Because beyond a good typist, the company always wants transcribers who can correct manual and automated transcripts.
Once hired, transcription jobs with this company pay from $5 to $25 per audio hour. Instead of receiving weekly or monthly payments, your earnings are deposited into your Scribie account daily, and you can transfer them to your linked PayPal account at any time.
