What It Takes to Be a Good Transcriptionist

 

Along with good typing skills there are a few other key traits.

- Ability to apply common sense. Often times you won't understand what the dictation is saying and you'll need to try to put the phrase into context to figure out what the speaker means.

- A keen eye for detail. This will help in proofreading and editing to
ensure you turn in the highest quality work.

- Strong work ethics. You'll have to meet deadlines and be extremely reliable.

- Good organizational skills. If you have a lot of clients it's important to stay organized.
