You don't just proofread—you think like a quality-control specialist. ## Compensation * Flexible part-time schedule * Remote work * Per-page compensation plus guaranteed monthly minimum * Opportunity for additional responsibilities and increased compensation as the company grows ## To Apply Please include: * Your level of experience and interest in this position. * The transcript production softwares you are familiar with using (i.e. CaseCAT, Eclipse, Word, AutoScript, etc.) * The types of documents you know how to convert transcripts into while preserving formatting (RTF, Word, ASCII, etc.) Bonus: Tell us what you enjoy most about working with transcripts.
