Transcription-A lucrative Job

By Sunil Punjabi

A monthly income is mandatory for survival, and a perfect career has got its infinite charms. Still, a full time career may not be everybody’s cup of tea. There could be personal equations that prevent people from accepting a job that requires daily traveling, as well as submitting to the time schedules and other regimens of an office. This happens too often in women's case. A big problem solver for such people is what is known as Transcription. It is a job that they can do from the comforts of their homes and can be mastered within a reasonable time.

A Transcription job involves the converting of an audio recording into a printable document, and can be Medical Transcription, Legal transcription, or General transcription. In all the three, fast typing skills with good grammar and punctuation, and also the ability to listen and decipher things correctly, are absolutely necessary. While these are the common requirements for any type of Transcription job, medical and legal transcription require certain additional skills as well.

For doing a Medical Transcription job, some basic knowledge of diseases, surgical procedures, and medical terminology is imperative, as all the recordings to be converted would be on medical subjects. Those who are already halfway into the profession like medical students or nursing students may find the job easy as a part time occupation. Others will have to take courses to familiarize themselves with the subject, if they hope to get entry into the field.

In the case of Legal Transcription, as the name implies, it is the legal documents that have to be listened to and converted into soft copies and hard copies. So, a background in legal terminology is what is required here. Again, those who are on their way to becoming lawyers or paralegals, will be able to handle the job easily, while others will have to take a course or do substantial reading on the subject to get acquainted with its terminology and methods of presentation. Though not as plentiful as medical transcription jobs, there is a steady increase in the number of jobs available for Legal Transcription.

Audio recordings of the General Transcription category could be on any subject like debates, discussions, meetings, seminars, inaugural speeches, ceremonial functions, or radio and TV programs. No special subject knowledge is required for transcribing these tapes and cassettes. If the employing company is satisfied with your listening powers, deciphering abilities, typing skills, and language skills, you are likely to land the job.

The main attraction of a Transcription job is the fact that you can do it at any time from home, according to your convenience and in the pace you prefer to. Work can be found online and after finishing can be submitted online. You can just sit in your bedroom or study, and finish the whole job, instead of having to get dressed and drive or pedal or use the local train to get to your office. It will not make any difference to you whether it is snowing or raining outside, whereas in a regular job these can be big roadblocks in getting to the workplace. And as you get used to the job, your typing speed will increase and you will get more comfortable with decoding what you hear. Pretty soon, having a Transcription job would become a win-win situation all the way.
