Who is Quicktate?

Quicktate is a great company to get hired with if you have no transcription experience and are looking for online transcription jobs for beginners.

Quicktate also audits, summarizes, evaluates and analyzes audio recordings and phone conversations. Some audio files, like voicemail messages, may average just 2-3 minutes in length, while other recordings may be significantly longer, perhaps several hours. As an independent contractor you make your own hours and the company site is open 24 hours a day. Here is what the company lists as requirements to be a contractor:

  • Accurate spelling and punctuation.

  • Experienced and professional transcriptionists.
  • Typists with their own equipment, supplies, facilities (office/ work space).
  • Honesty, integrity and reliability.
  • No convictions of a felony or misdemeanor on your record. (Do not proceed if you have ever been convicted)

  • Take a test to ensure you understand Quicktate’s requirements.
  • Depending on how you scored on your Quicktate typing test, you may qualify to be tested to also offer your services to iDictate.

How do I get hired for online transcription jobs for beginners?

They do sometimes have a wait to be hired so if you don’t hear back right away be patient. Many companies like this one  do not have steady hours so some people choose to work multiple work at home jobs.

Once you get some experience doing data entry or transcription from home you will find it much easier to get the other transcription jobs. If this sounds like a good fit for you then you can visit the website to get started with the application. There is a form to fill out and then you must create an account and take a quiz to see if you qualify. Other companies that hire for online transcription jobs for beginners include Rev.com, TranscribeMe, and Tigerfish.

    You are very welcome!
    Blogging can be very frustrating at first. I know I almost gave up, but I am so glad I stuck it out! I’m not sure what you would like to know, but if you have any questions at all feel free to ask! 🙂

    Also, if you sign up for google adsense and put that on your page you can get paid every time people click on your ads. I have done it, and it doesn’t pay a ton (all ads pay different) but it is still an extra income and the way I look at it every little bit counts, right? 🙂
