QA & Transcriber

Transcriptionist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly support team Friendly peers Pays timely Payscale gets better at higher levels like QA and special teams Great communication platform to vent out anything you want and meet other transcribers

Cons

Some of the machine generated work offers low pay and lots of editing. Less work on weekends

TranscribeMe Response

Thank you for your feedback. Some people feel it's easier to work with the ASR files while some don't. You can always cancel out of a file if you don't feel comfortable working on it for any reason, so you don't have to feel obligated to work on this file type if you don't want to. And you're right, weekends are usually slow in the general pool, but taking accent exams and moving into the First Draft and Special Styles teams gives you access to more workflows and a steadier stream of work. I would suggest you look into that if you haven't already done so.

Pros

Can work whenever is convenient for you, easy to apply, good support system from other transcriptionists

Cons

Pay is horrible until you get good at it, not enough jobs so even if you want to be working you might not be able to

TranscribeMe Response

Thanks for your feedback. Remember that as a company TM depends on our clients to upload the files they want transcribed. TM has no control over when or how often they do that, so the workload will always be variable. At the beginning you're learning new skills and learning how to follow the style guide correctly on your files, so it's more like paid training. The pay rate increases once you've demonstrated (by taking an passing exams so you can move on to other teams) that you know how to apply the guide correctly and that you have a certain level of accuracy. Some people move on to other teams faster than others. It depends on how much time and effort each individual wants to put into it.
