I've been looking for ways to work from home and I *thought* this was a reputable site. Do NOT even think about working for this company unless you're prepared to make a dollar or two an hour. My first assignment - 10 pages of instructions which took me an hour to read, and then I was given an assignment. Only 45 minutes of speech that needed to be transcribed. I have EXTENSIVE experience in editing, proofreading, not to mention Accounting and a BA in Marketing & Bus. Admin. After NINE hours of listening, re-listening, and re-listening to barely audible speech, in medical terminology on top of that - I did not finish in time. I emailed to ask for advice and the response was 'it was supposed to be done by 4pm'. They do NOT pay by the hour - but by the transcription time which was only 45 minutes - which would have amounted to about $1.50 an hour. Obviously they are not looking for qualified people (a 3rd grader could pass the 'test' they give you to apply). Still looking for LEGITIMATE U.S.-BASED freelance work and the internet is full of companies that want to pay pennies. Do NOT waste your time with these rude people.
