Recruitment
FAQ's
Would I become an
employee of E-quip
Business
S
olutions?
No. If your application is successful we
may have occasional need for your typing services but you will
remain an independent contractor and you will work for yourself. You
will not be an employee of E-quip
Business
S
olutions
and you will be solely responsible for all
taxes and charges on income received
What equipment do I need?
You will need a high speed broadband connection at home
and a PC with a Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7
Operating System. Your PC needs a sound card, a web
browser such as Internet Explorer and Microsoft Word software
(version 2007 or higher). You will have, and be familiar with
using, transcription software to read/transcribe digital audio, a
footpedal and a high quality headset
How do I get work?
We assign transcription projects to be completed within a given timeframe. Full details of
the project together with the necessary instructions as to format
etc. will be provided prior to commencement. All audio is
sent securely via FTP
How much do I get paid? We pay a competitive rate which is worked on a
per minute of audio basis in the same way as we bill our
clients. The calculation method means you know in advance how
much you will earn per recording transcribed.
What is the payment method? All typists based
in the Republic of Ireland are paid in Euro directly into their bank
accounts. This payment is made on or after the last
day of each month upon receipt of invoice. Northern
Ireland, UK and overseas typists will be paid through Paypal in the
local currency equivalent of the Euro rate. As an independent
contactor you are responsible for your own tax affairs and the onus
is solely on you to declare all income.
Is there a minimum level of
income?
No. There is no minimum income and no guarantee that you will
receive any transcription projects from us. Your earnings are
determined by how fast a typist you are. The more audio you
transcribe the greater your income level. If you can only
transcribe evenings and weekends then this
will limit your earning potential
