Hello everyone and welcome back to my channel Jennifer Marie VO where I teach you different
ways that you can make money online working from home. If you haven't already, make sure
to subscribe to my channel for more videos on how to become a work from home freelancer.
So in today's video, I'm going to give you a quick update about transcription jobs that are currently
available in September 2021. I'll go through which transcription companies are hiring now.
And also let you know what the job availability is like once you get hired and you pass the exam.
There is nothing more frustrating than getting hired for a transcription company and going
through all this hard work to pass the exams to later find out that there are no jobs available.
Okay, so I recently did a poll asking you are you working for any transcription companies,
and if so, share with us in the comment section what the job availability is like.
So 65% are not currently working for any transcription companies. And you can see 12%
of the 826 votes are working for Rev, 7% for TranscribeMe, 11% for Scribie, and 5% for
GoTranscript. In addition to this, we had over 56 comments if you want to read through this entire
poll, you can go to the community section on my YouTube channel and read all of the comments.
So first of all, I'm going to tell you about which different transcription companies I have been
accepted into. The difference between my YouTube channel and other YouTube channels is I don't only
discuss what job possibilities are out there I actually tried to get in myself to let you know
how difficult or how easy it is. I was accepted into Rev, TranscribeMe, Scribie, QA World,
Casting Words, and Crowdsurf Work. My application was denied for both Verbit and GoTranscript. The
easiest transcription company to get accepted into for me was QA world-- Scribie was also quite easy,
and casting words and crowd surf work. And then the most difficult was Transcribeme and Rev. Okay,
so let's start with Rev. Now Rev has both a transcription section and a captioning section.
And they currently are hiring in September 2021. However, there is a waitlist for their
transcription job, although you can still apply. Now Rev recently has switched it so that you have
to be applying from a select number of countries you can't apply from anywhere worldwide. However,
once you get in the job availability is very good, especially during the week. Here are some
comments from some of my subscribers a few days ago, I blurred out their information for privacy
reasons. But you can see all of these comments in the community section under my channel. I still
work for rev and recently have been promoted to wherever plus so far no problems with regards to
volume of jobs, there's plenty of jobs available, especially on weekdays. Again, I have another
comment I work at rev and I'm happy with it plenty of jobs available and payment is pretty smooth.
And here's a transcriptionist at Rev. Again, they're saying which countries are hiring. They're
hiring from Australia, Canada, Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, South Africa,
the UK and the US, excluding California. If we go here, you can go to rev.com slash freelancers
slash transcription, and you see that there is currently a waitlist because we are experiencing
a much higher level of interest from new freelancers. However, you can still apply.
And then if we go to their captioning section, we don't have this notification popping up here. So
I'm going to assume that there's not a waitlist for captioning. So if you're looking to apply
to either of these, I would recommend applying to the captioner position, and then later on
apply to the transcription position. Okay, so the next one I'm going to talk about is Transcribeme.
Transcribeme is hiring in September 2021. And as far as job availability, I am not sure. You can
see here that I passed the English entrance exam in February 2020. However, because I've not done a
job for such a long time, I would have to take the English reactivation exam and I'm no longer able
to access jobs until I do this reactivation exam. So I'm not sure what the job availability is like,
if you have any insight into that, please leave a comment under this video. So this is where you
would go to apply to transcribe me transcribe me.com/jobs, and then click get started.
The next one is Scribie and Scribie is hiring in September 2021. And as far as I'm aware,
you can apply from any country to become a transcriptionist for Scribie. And the job
availability is also very good. Again, you get more jobs during the week than you do
on weekends. Here's a comment from one of my subscribers. Scribie has a very steady
flow of jobs. But as you know, the pay is very low. Although I do think if you're
persistent and meet their standards and get to QC level, you could earn an almost fair amount.
You can see here this is the other day on the 21st, there were 71 files for transcription found
and I'm actually going to bring you into my login of Scribie. Right now you can see there were 139
files for transcription found. So there is a lot of work available. Again, it's not good pay,
but this is definitely some One thing that you know once you work your way up and if you can
get a higher grade you will make more money. So to apply to Scribie, Just go to scribie.com/jobs
and here you can sign up as a transcriber. Okay, the next company I want to talk to you about is
QA world. Now QA world is hiring in September 2021. QA world definitely has the easiest test.
It's the easiest transcription platform to get into. But the job availability is below average.
You can see here, this is where you go to get the calls that you have to transcribe. And you can see
that there are no calls at this time, please check back later, what happens is that they will release
a whole bunch of calls, there might be like 100 released and you really quickly have to choose to
accept to transcribe one of the calls. There are a lot of people waiting to do this transcription
work, I find that the most calls become available during the week during the morning
in the Philippines time. And you can see here that once you do get a high enough ranking in QA world,
you will have access to more calls, you can see that these are all the different people. And these
are how many different minutes they transcribed this week. So the more work you do, the more calls
you'll get access to. And to apply to QA world you can go to app.qa-world.com. I recommend you apply
to QA world even just as a practice to try to get an idea of the kinds of things you have to do when
you're trying to become a transcriptionist and get accepted into a company like Rev or Scribie
that will offer you more work. Okay, the next one I want to show you is Casting words. Casting words
is hiring in September 2021. However, the job availability is low for new transcriptionists.
So this is a really great comment from one of my subscribers, I registered in Casting words
around three months ago. Since then I could only made $24. Job availability for beginners
in Casting words is really low, you just have to be very lucky to get the tasks. So for example,
when I log into Casting words, you can see that these are all the jobs available and that there
are 284 different transcription jobs. However, when I click on available jobs, it shows me that
zero of zero are available. And that's because I'm a new transcriptionist and have only done one job
to test out casting words. So the more jobs you are able to complete, the higher your level will
be. And then you will be able to have access to all of these jobs. However, it's very rare
that these jobs that jobs are popping up under available jobs. So it might take you a really
long time in order to actually work your way up to being able to do the other jobs available.
However, if you want to apply to Casting words, you are able to sign up, go to workshop casting
words.com slash apply. Okay, the next one I want to talk about is Crowdsurf work.
Crowdsurf work is currently hiring in September 2021. However, it is very
slow to process accounts, what happens is that people are going through the process
and getting accepted and passing but that they're not getting their login credentials to
actually start working on the platform. And it's taking a very long time to process these login
credentials. The job availability is average. You can see here, this was on the 21st of September,
and the jobs that I qualified for popped up here 147 different little tasks. And Crowdsurf work
is open to new applicants right now, you would just go to whether you're from the US or Canada
or international, but again, it does take you some time in order to get your login credentials.
Okay, the next one I want to talk to you about is Verbit. Verbit is not hiring in September 21.
And I do not know about their job availability since I my application was denied. So the
recruitment process is temporarily paused so you're not going to be able to register as a
transcriber this month with Verbit. And finally, GoTranscript GoTranscript is hiring in September
2021. And the job availability is good according to my subscribers. Here's a subscriber posted a
few days ago. GoTranscript they have poor audio but they pay $2.30 on average for 10 minute audio.
If you transcribe well enough, they're human editors will give you a decent rating.
Not bad you can make about $50 a week if you are a skilled transcriptionist.
So to apply to GoTranscript just go to gotranscript.com/transcription-jobs and they are
open for applications right now. So my final thoughts of where you should apply
to in September 2021 would be Rev captioning because their application process is open,
Rev transcription although there is a waitlist if you do get accepted. I also definitely recommend
you apply to Scribie. If you are a beginner it is easier to get into then Rev. Also,
I would recommend you apply to Go transcript. I wasn't able to get in I'm not sure why I might try
again in future to be able to give you more tips on how to get in and then also Transcribeme. You
could also try to get into QA world because it is much easier. There just is not a lot of job
availability. So these are the companies I would recommend you apply to. If you have any other
experience with any other sorts of transcription companies, please write in the comment section
below and let us know what the hiring is like and the job availability in September 2021. Thank you
