  • Ability to produce verbatim transcriptions, including stutters, repetitions, and filler words.
  • Experience in transcription, annotation, or linguistics is an advantage.
  • Comfortable using browser-based tools (training will be provided).
  • Reliable internet connection.
  • Access to a laptop or desktop computer (mobile devices are not supported).
  • Reliable availability for 20+ hours per week.

Additional Information
