Anya: I’d prefer working home-based I am still not capable of living alone far from home.

Archie: Which among these transcription work most appeal to your interest: Medical, General (Business, podcasts, interviews), or Legal Transcription.

Anya: The best advice I could give to people interested in this field is to enhance their vocabulary skills since they’re writing, in most cases, unclear voice files, so they will be knowledgeable enough about grammar and vocabulary.

Archie: Thank you for your time.
