| As we write, this job listing is online and applications appear to be open. But jobs can fill at any time, so apply or share quickly if you’re interested! Sorry, but we have no role in the HR processes of other companies. If you encounter difficulties in the application process please contact them directly. Good luck in your hunt, and may you be working from home soon! |
For the many people who would like to work from home but who are not thrilled about a job that involves talking on the phone, these transcription jobs might be just what you’ve been looking for.
We’ve compiled a list of companies that give people with little to no transcription experience an opportunity to put their typing skills to work for pay.
Most of these companies are very flexible — allowing you to log in when you wish and complete jobs by the assigned deadlines.
It’s important to remember that most pay is listed as “per audio hour” as opposed to per worked hour. Keep this in mind since it may take several hours to accurately transcribe one hour of recorded audio. The faster and more accurate your typing skills are, the more you can make. New transcribers may be a bit disappointed at first but, with practice, you can build up your speed and improve your income potential in time.
These kinds of gigs will not generally result in a regular source of full-time income, but they can be a great way to build your skills and boost your income.
