TM Mini: Meet Christopher P.

 

Time for another TM Mini!


Christopher P. is another of our wonderful transcribers who keep the show running. We asked him to tell us about his time and experience with TranscribeMe, and this is what he had to say:

"Back in February 2019 I was looking to make some extra cash, and a post on Reddit gave me the idea of transcription. I liked the idea of being able to work whenever I wanted, not being tied to a particular schedule.

I took TM's entrance exam but failed it. TM ended up on the back burner. Then in December 2020, almost two years later, I remembered TM and thought to myself, 'Maybe I'll try TM again.' I got in this time!"

We enjoy hearing how people get started, but this next part is what really sets us apart as a great company. When asked what his favorite part about working here is, Christopher said:

"That would be you guys. Seriously. These Yammer pages, with input from admins, etc., are a breath of fresh air."

How flattering! Thank you, Christopher! We work hard to ensure our community is well-informed and supported. Admins, transcribers, and support staff around the world are around to answer questions and help whenever needed.

Thank you so much for sharing, Christopher! We appreciate everything you do!

  TM Mini Time! Today we're featuring Leda C. TranscribeMe offers a multitude of services from transcription (for education, medical, market research, and more!) to creation and annotation of training data for AI and machine learning to translation of foreign languages! And the key to all of these services is our wonderful crowd!  Leda C. is one of those key crowd workers. She works on our Spanish translation team producing high-quality foreign language translation with unrivaled accuracy. She's been doing this for us for three years now, and we wanted to hear from her what it's like doing translation at TranscribeMe. Here's what she had to say: "My life has completely changed because I have the fantastic opportunity to work in my mother tongue (Spanish)."  We love that our work is not just an income for so many, but can be a blessing in other ways as well.

TranscribeMe Minis: Meet Archimedes F.

  It's time for another TM Mini! Today we'd like to celebrate another star TranscribeMe transcriber: Archimedes F. Archimedes has been with TranscribeMe for about three years now. Before finding TM, he was in IT for many years, considering himself a "science and math and techie type of guy." When he left that job he wanted something different that allowed more free time. He told us, "After a lot of YouTube videos, reading stuff on a lot of subreddits, forums, and many other random stuff, well, I landed on transcribeme.com. And the rest is history!" And we're so glad he did! He says he enjoys the flexibility of when and how he works, being able to work as long or as short as he wants. We asked what his favorite thing about working here was, and he said, "I like the fact that I get to choose the kind of work I do, whether RUSH files, special projects, or even creating audio files for machine learning. TM isn't just about transcribing, and that
