Dictation transcription 13

$15-25 AUD / hour

In Progress
Posted almost 10 years ago

$15-25 AUD / hour

We have an occasional stream of transcription work and, accordingly, need more people to help us! We are looking for an additional, reliable individual or team who can take dictation files (usually in Olympus DSS Pro format or AIFF) and type these into provided Microsoft Word template reports. We are keen to appoint someone in the next 24 hours to take approximately 60 audio minutes and type it up in the next day. They are medium quality recordings with Australian accents. Accordingly, if you are able to work over the next 24 hours and guarantee to complete the task to quality expectations, then we can commit to this virtually immediately. Going forward, there is likely to be additional transcription for you to do. The volume of work will be ad hoc, but we have a preference to find someone who we can use on a repeated basis. We already have a number of people we work with, and need more! So, if you do a good job on the first task, then there is likely to be ongoing work. You must be accurate, reliable and have a strong attention to detail, including spelling and formatting. You must be able to consistently offer a turnaround in under 24 hours or less ie we will send them to you end of the day Sydney time and prefer turnaround by the morning Sydney time. Our expectation is that you will check your work and meet deadlines and accuracy expectations. We've found some good people on Freelancer in the past, some of whom we continue to work with. Both quality and reliability are important to us. In other words, we expect you to be able to commit to deadlines and produce good work--if you cannot do both, then please don't bid. Important: 1. Please quote in AUD per audio hour. 2. Please advise your availability to turn around this first approximately 30 to 40 minutes of recording in the next 24 hours. 3. Please let us know of your experience in doing transcription work like this and what software and playback equipment you have. 4. Please do not bid if you cannot deliver to the deadlines and quality we expect—it will bear out in your ratings. Looking forward to working with you.

Hi, An experienced transcriber here at your service :) You're welcome to see my reviews regarding this type of work. I mainly did multiple-speaker seminars, but I also did interviews. The one that was really challenging was conducted over the phone :) I also have experience with transcribing Australian accents (this I did on Elance). I can provide you with samples of my work, if you're interested. Normally, I finish 1 audio hour, together with proofreading of my work, in one day (obviously not the entire day :)) depending on the sound quality or the number of speakers. As for the price, if $50 per audio hour fits your budget, then great - let's get start right away. However, I'm open for discussion about this. And last, but not least, I really love doing transcriptions, so, please consider my proposal. Thank you.

Delivery on time. Data entry speed 12,000 kps, Native English. I can convert AIFF to MP3 as I work off a non MAC format. My experience is that 15 min of audio takes about 3 hours depending on the topic. It is good to say what the topic is so you get bids from freelancers that know the content. That said, I am trying to build my career here at freelancer and I am often out bid by more experienced freelancers. Would you give me a chance to show you my stuff!

*Please note that my bid is to transcribe one audio hour* Hello. I currently do not have any feedback on Freelancer.com but I can provide sample of my work. Yesterday I actually did a transcription for a 66 minutes video for a Freelancer employer and I am waiting for the person to come online to deliver the said work. I can definitely transcribe and deliver 1 hour audio/video within the span of 24 hours. I am very much ready to speak more about this opportunity. Please get in touch with me in you're interested. Thank you.

After Compliments! Indeed this job is for me. Because I am already in the field of transcription using Digitel Software and Foot pedal for my legal transcriptions (virtual on-line) of files in .mp3 format. I get voices of Indian lawyers from across the country either through skype or recorded voices. However, since in transcription the quality of voice and accent matters, it would be wise if a sample may be given to enable me understand whether I will cope up with the accent or not, before promising you the turn around time for every hour of dictation. I am rich in experience in the said field as also in the field of Executive Secretary to Top Management having worked with companies like Bank of Baroda, Oman International Bank, Dabur, Bharti Airtel etc. for more than 25 years and now I have left my assignments and do on-line executive and transcription jobs Regards,

Hi pedntique, I'd like to help you with the transcription tasks posted about here. I live in Malaysia; which relatively close to Australia in time (hopefully that is convenient for you and your requirements). If awarded; you can expect tasks to be completed in a timely manner and with a high level of accuracy. Of course, within budget as well. I did some transcription and translation before for some tasks on another freelancing platform; however it was not bulk work so I am not claiming to be very experienced. I can promise good clean work though. I am willing to help you transcript over night according to the Australia times. Here's how I plan to handle your project: * Establish expectations and understand your requirements for submissions. * Understand the time commitment needed for the project. * Finish my work within the times agreed on. * Keep an open, honest communication throughout my work. I am looking forward on working on this project. Please feel free to message me for any questions or clarifications. Thanks! and happy picking!

Greetings, I'm a native English speaker & audio engineer with 5 years engineering experience with Ableton. I also have experience working in technical support for the company Zenimax during the release of The Elder Scrolls Online, for which I was required to have excellent communication skills. During this post I was required to communicate with game users & thus my English was required to be impeccable. I was also required to respond as quickly as possible to each customer (within 15 minutes maximum of receiving a ticket) & am thus very good with deadlines. I am currently immediately available for transcription work for the next 24 hours & can provide further information if required.
