General transcription
In a caralluma speciosa
previous post I mentioned the fact that I have started looking into getting into general transcription work from home. Well since that post I have been doing a lot of research and have indeed decided that this is something that I really want to do.
So I have taken a few steps towards this goal. I have signed up for three different transcription forums and have gone into them and read and read and read. Yeah, you get the picture. I have also purchased a set of headphones from Amazon and have even taken a couple of tests to see if this is something that I not only want to do but will be able to do.
Although I am still quite new and slow at this type of work, I am quite confident that with enough practice I will do pretty good in this field. So for the next couple of weeks I am still going to do a lot of research as well as a lot of practicing and then after the two weeks are up I will then start contacting companies.
I’ll be sure to let you all know how I make out!

Being a transcriptionist is a tough job. It requires not only excellent typing speed but also excellent hearing acuity. Good luck to you then. I am pretty sure you can do it.
