I tried transcribing, and even though I passed the exam, I struggled with the actual job. It was not the right fit for me, so I decided to leave after just a month. Have you ever had experience working as a transcriptionist?

I tried to apply as a medical transciptionist. However, my typing speed is only average. So, I dropped the idea of working with this particular company.

I have never tried this kind of job before and to be honest am not really sure I would be good enough.

I have never tried working as a transcriptionist. I doubt i would ever try this as this is something i have never picked interest in. I believe one needs to be passionate about it in order to do well in it.

I have attempted to work as a transcriptionist. I did not like it and I had to run away from that.

I was hired but I was required to attend their training with a pay. Why will I pay when I am not sure if it's legit.

I was hired to work as a transcriber, but I resigned. It seemed hard and time-consuming, and I had spent too many hours on the screen.

I had completed one transcription job which was available to me, after that I have not got any opportunities for paid work, despite trying.

Were you paid for your first transcription job? If you were paid, you better did not give up that work.

Someone was getting a lot of orders, and he would give me some work. Later he was getting chargebacks from the customer, so he stopped giving me work.

That means you already experienced doing that job. Why don't you apply to another site, there are many.

I guess you also need to spare more time to earn from it and it may not be easier for anyone that is having a full time day job and you are already busy with so many things

That's right, but we're the one to decide on how many hours we're available. I answered 3 hours a day. But the training fee is $189 very impossible.

Well, I have never tried working as a transcriptionist. I was never interested in this job despite a fact that I had a lot of friends working in this industry

I don't even know where one can find opportunities to work as a transcriptionist. Could give it a go. Never worked as one before.
