Work and Advancement Opportunities

Once you have been accepted to our platform, you will become a Transcriber for TranscribeMe and work on short chunks of audio known as jobs. These will not be full audio files, but rather 2-to-8-minute pieces of a file that have been sliced up once a client uploads their audio.

To increase the amount of work available to you, be sure to take the advancement exams that TranscribeMe has to offer. For more information about these exams and TM's Special Teams, please read TranscribeMe Opportunities for the most up-to-date information.
