How to Work From Home and Make $25 an Hour as a Transcriptionist. Looking for a flexible job that allows you to work from home, requires little to no prior experience, and doesn’t involve making sales calls?
Yes, this kind of work exists: You could become a transcriptionist. This job gives you the freedom to set your own hours and, in many cases, work as much or as little as you want each week. While transcription jobs are usually broken into general, medical and legal categories, the latter two will usually require prior schooling and/or work experience. If you’re a beginner, you’ll want to start by looking into general transcription — so that’s what I’m going to focus on.
Lisa Mills, blogger at Work at Home Mom Revolution and author of Jump Start Your General Transcription Career: The Fast & Easy Way to Get Started, started transcribing shortly after separating from her husband. “l needed to find a job quickly, and I wanted to be at home with my children, so transcription seemed like a natural fit,” she says.

I think anyone who is thinking about doing online transcription work will find Ali's insights invaluable. I have republished her email with her permission. Thank you Ali! :-) I have been doing transcription for about six months now for Net Transcripts which I noticed is on your list of non-respondants. It is not a ratio of 1:4 of audio hours to transcription hours, I can tell you that for certain. Here are the facts: Two trial transcriptions, unpaid, 30 minutes each (in my case). Why the 4:1 ratio is bogus: Transcriptionists are required to decipher the different voices in the conference using listening skills and context clues (okay that person just addressed the other person as Bill). Together with possibly poor audio quality (the usual), pay usually lands you in the range of $5 per hour of work.
