Rev.Com Sample Audio file edited text for beginner 2020
Please edit as needed. Listen to the audio file itself and do not rush things.
S1: Thanks for your interest in Rev. Please listen carefully to the
audio file all the way until the end and please edit and transcribe as needed.
Correcting misspellings, researching names, and attributing speech through the
correct speaker to create an accurate and complete transcript. Let's talk a
little bit about Rev and its expectations.
S2: Great. So, tell us how Rev got started.
S1: CEO Jason Chicola says that the idea for Rev.com was inspired by his
time at oDesk. Mr. Chicola started the site with co-founder and former oDesk
colleague, Josh Breinlinger in 2010. They were joined by other MIT classmates
who built this platform, which now specializes in transcription, captions,
foreign subtitles, and document translation. Rev started Temi as well.
S3: What does Rev look for in a freelancer?
S1: A strong command of the English language is essential. It's
important to know which word fits the context, such as, "They're going to
get their books from there." We also value research skills, such as
correct spelling, Sysco Food Company, Cisco software, as well as C# and SQL
programming languages. Your files are graded on accuracy and formatting. So
you're going to need to follow Rev Style guidelines. It's important that
quality is consistent.
S2: How do you handle difficult audio?
S1: We recommend that agents work on files with which they're
comfortable. Otherwise, use appropriate notation tags, such as inaudible tags
for indiscernible dialogue. Please do your best to clear inaudibles by slowing
down audio or rewinding.
S3: Do we transcribe non-English speech? [Foreign language 00:01:50].
S1: Use foreign language tags for foreign language speech. If the file
is 100% in a foreign language or is only an automated recording, then the file
is considered unworkable and must be unclaimed, not submitted.
S2: What about software or equipment?
S1: Rev Software is optimized to work with the latest version of Google
Chrome browser and using Mozilla Firefox as a backup. We recommend good quality
headphones or earbuds. You'll need a laptop or computer with a keyboard.
Please, no iPads, iPhones nor Android tablets.
S3: How do the agents get paid?
S1: We pay via PayPal on Mondays by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Well, that's
all the time we have for now. Thanks for taking the time to speak with me.
