Legal firms, medical offices, and education companies use transcription services extensively. Speed requirement is typically 60+ WPM with 99% accuracy. The emphasis is on exact reproduction — no paraphrasing, no corrections to apparent errors in the original.
Transcription requires suppressing the urge to correct or improve the source text — enter what is written, not what you think it should say.
Efficient transcriptionists read 3–5 words ahead of what they are typing, maintaining a continuous flow without stopping to look up each word.
Line breaks, capitalisation, quotation marks, and paragraph spacing must all match the source exactly.
Transcription fatigue sets in after 15–20 minutes of continuous work — building stamina through practice is essential for production roles.
