Some suggestions. - Trying to get out of MTing. sm

Posted: Mar 3rd, 2018 - 11:07 am In Reply to: Who hires newbies? - NCMT

First let me say that I agree with most of the other posts about not getting into this field. However, sometimes one just has to try it themselves to see if it is a good fit. One suggestion I have is for your daughter to try out for one of the services like Rev or TranscribeMe (check Rat Rebellion for other companies). The pay sounds pretty low and they are IC positions so no benefits, but she will at least gain experience and see if it is something she really wants to do.
