Call Center Agents interest on transcription

Glenda on Mon, Apr 26, 2010, at 11:47 PM answered the question: Even without adequate work experience, do you think you can start to work as a transcriptionist?

As I look around and check the available jobs online, I chance upon the word “home transcriptionist.” It sounds interesting. As I read on and learn more about this job offer, I became more interested in the prospect of using my free time at home into good use by typing a variety of audio materials. I checked the qualifications and I think I have them all.



To start with, transcribing audio materials involves a good listening skill in English. After working for 5 years in the call center industry, I have been so familiar with the foreign language.

Couple it with my wide vocabulary in English, I really think this job suits me best. Words or phrases that might be unfamiliar to some people are no longer foreign to me. Besides, I learned to multitask through my job as a customer service representative before.

I can type and listen at the same time. Not to mention my typing skills range from 35-40 WPM, so I really think I am very much qualified for this home based kind of work.

Since I have decided to go home based all the way, I have much free time to accommodate other kinds of jobs that will hone my skills. The skills I have learned in the outsourcing industry have prepared me for a job like this.

What attracts me more is the home based type of work offered to this kind of job. This job will allow me to earn well at the comfort of my home. I will have a more balanced life with the kind of job like this. Earning well and living well.
