Thanks to Housadreturn.
Seem like only yesterday I was asking him how to go about passing my first work after passing the test. I had for 1 and several 2. But he thought me. And now I knew I got it. It's just patience and hard work but is do able

When you label the speaker wrongly. It's automatic 1

you forgot to mention "omitted content" I got an auto 1 once, for an omitted "yeah" that I missed, I hadn't learned the ESC work-around by then.

generationz:

What if you end up choosing funding circle calls 5times?

I'll exhaust my tokens and rest, bro.

dgee1:
Oh, thanks so much. I use a laptop though.

Same thing. Use shift+F1 to reduce spaeed

generationz:


Wow your perseverance is amazing. :I

Didn't they ban you after 10 trials?

Nope

generationz:


Laptop or phone.

Phone

I really feel ashamed to see this . I've been on this thread for more than two months but I've always been discouraged by terrible ratings, the little cents I get paid after hours of work and epileptic power supply around here. You are right, patience and hard work it is. Well done, bro.

Don't need to be ashame for anything. Once you've got it, you've got it. I as you said light was an added advantage.

Guys what happened to the former thread? I've been searching for it ever since.

There's a huge world of difference between transcribing on a PC and on a smartphone, the major advantage of phones is just the battery and maybe mobility plus the automatic text prediction also helps too, but PC is king.
If your typing speed on PC is poor tho, you may find it a little more difficult than it should be.
If only I could get something like a Microsoft Surface laptop with 8 hours battery life...

my first attempt on pc was straight 5. No talks, no quarrel, just 5.

I can't wait to buy battery for my laptop. I can't shout.

You shouldn't be now. They are no longer as stone-cold as they used to be.
They're now lenient.

Imagine, when you have a poor rating, you have the grace to redo it.
It wasn't like that before, remember?
This is arguably one of the best times to take advantage.

It is possible that some Nigerians on Slack did not pass through here.

Someone on Slack once talked about PayPal not working in Nigeria, and that he doesn't know how he'll get his money.
Those guys know people from Nigeria.

Let us properly take our time to read from this thread, so that Arlen and co. don't start looking for dots to connect in the statement.

psyqs:


Of course I use Grammarly.

It's F.C uk call abi?
When you are punctuating, forget about there pauses. Just puntuate after you finish writing the whole statement.

Yes, Funding circle.
At the end of every typed out timestamp?

that's serious o.

You hate FC calls that bad?

Not timestamp, when the speaker is done.

Auto 1 dey open person eye.

Yes, very true. Let's take this very serious please.

If you've applied before and you failed the transcription test, to apply again u need to use a new email. Once u apply again and u are directed to where u will take the test, simply refresh ur browser continuously till u see clip 6 (the test audio). Then copy and paste the quoted text above and submit.



N.B: Passing the transcription test is the easiest part

Thanks bro, I am here in the thread.I also failed the test.

"Hi German,I want to go back ...(didn't get this).More than anything,I want to fine make sure we find time and account for sure (demo).I think if you and other stakeholders see the product in action,they will be able to understand why we are able to o make such grandeur statements. If we are not able to improve the efficiency of your sales force at least 10% in the first most month,you will have full money back guaranteed.

This was what I transcribed and I was rejected but I know I didn't get it right.

generationz:


Read through FAQ

When transcribing and there's something you are not sure of check Faq and google.

All right. I'll try again.

zakir007:
Like how many minutes was your first call

2 minutes plus

D1uncle:

It's hard work but it's do able. At this stage go through the FAQ over again. And play audio 0.7X instead of 1X

Thanks alot.

I can't transcribe on a phone o, it's too tidous abeg.

8 hours battery life will be king!

I get confused sometimes.
I think we are supposed to start transcribing each time stamp with in capital letter, right?

We become Moses then.

I'm beginning to wonder about the efficiency of their rating.
I went through most of my works we're I got 5 and still saw some errors.

Not that I don't want the 5, but it confuses me as I don't know what to correct.

They already know Africans have issues with PayPal.

No. Unless it's a new sentence. Consider it a cut and join.

if you capture the conversation well enough, they'll be lenient. But it can get reaudited.

If it's the beginning of a sentence then u capitalize, but if it's a continuation from the sentence in the previous time stamp then u don't capitalize.

samsard:
No. Unless it's a new sentence. Consider it a cut and join.

Hmm...

I practically took the first instruction on FAQ to the extremes then
