Transcriptionist
As a transcriptionist, you have to type out, verbatim, what someone dictates to you or what you hear on audio files. You might also caption a video, capture the words in a court presentation or take down a written record of a dialogue between two or more people.
It would be even better if you’d have quick typing skills, a very good hearing if you could identify speakers only by voice, and understand sometimes thick accents, and pass a transcription test. Also, familiarity with medical terms is a plus.
The average pay of a transcriptionist is $12-$29.07/hour. And luckily, you could easily do this remote job from home.
