Everyone says to go here and apply but I think their website is broken. I cannot apply or access. I write a different review once this works.
That's a good idea I can't believe this work so amazing and so unbelievable wow that's great and so amazing idea for earning
I get an email advising that I have gone below the metrics. One point by the way due to two graded files given the lowest points. Mind you most of my files graded were 4/5 and 5/5. The warning says I have 120 days to not go below the standards again or my account would be deactivated, which I received on the 16th. Today I receive and email in the middle of transcribing a file saying that my metrics have gone below again and of you know what happens. I'm looking at both emails and guess what, metrics are exactly the same. I even go back and look at all the files graded since the warning email and nothing has dropped. I contact them and they say it's irreversible even though I'm telling them something isn't right. They don't even take the time to check and see if their system, that made the decision, made a mistake. I wouldn't even care if the system made a mistake the fact that didn't want to check is what bothers me. Also the fact that they don't have a better option than firing you right off back is crazy. How about try more training first before just deactivating someone's account. Not that I really need it because like I said I was getting 4/5 and 5/5 grades at least 90% of the time.
Just had a file meticulously typed out and I'm in awed. Great job ladies and gentlemen, whoever you are over there. You make it easy to work!
I sent them 45 hours worth of YouTube videos to transcribe... twice.
In both cases, work was done in under 16 hours.
At the end of the process, they advised me that a few of their captions didn't meet their quality standards and gave me gift cards that more than covered those costs.
The transcriptions they told me didn't meet their standards were still pretty decent, and I had one of my employees touch them up in about half an hour.
My videos average 8 minutes, so 4 videos needing touchup out of 90 hours indicates a 99.5% rate of good captions. I haven't found any other problems besides trivial capitalization issues on brand names, and that's my fault for not uploading a more comprehensive glossary.
I see some reviews of how they treat their employees on here. While I like to imagine my vendors and service providers all have happy staff, I really wish that things like that wouldn't control the star count of the business on this website.
I wish there was a separate page and score for persons who currently or previously worked for the firm being reviewed.
I work for Rev as a contractor and make about $350 per week working 6 hours per day. I've tried all of the other online WFH gigs and this one stands out. You're paid every Monday via PayPal. I've been with them for about 6 months and never had issues getting paid. Rev is fine, you can work as much as you want. It's great supplemental income.
The problem is the other contractors! If you go to the forums all they do is complain (which stops them from working). They believe they should be making a full, liveable wage on this part-time gig, it's ridiculous.
They bring the morale down and they run off new members with horror stories or bullying. I've never had an issue with Rev directly. The application process was easy and like I said, the monies paid were enough to make me happy and arrived like clockwork before noon EST every Monday.
Yes there are horrible files but you can choose what you want to do. I've done 30 minute files that paid over $1.00 per minute or files that were an hour and paid 50 cents per min because I loved the subject.
Rev has transcription, captioning and grading opportunities. But beware of the graders who are in a clique and think reviewing someone's work (and not even all of it, just small portions) is on the same stressful level as having to submit 30-90 minutes of perfection.
The only thing worse than the graders are those who review what the graders (aka their friends) have submitted after you dispute an unfair grade.
The forum is a cesspool and the same people claim they're leaving every week. They never do. They just want to scare off newbies so they can keep all of the jobs and money. Stay off of the forum, make a daily or weekly goal for yourself ($40/day or $200 a week for example), lay low and only make a fuss if something is wrong with your payments.
Excellent, high-quality service with fast turnaround. They delivered my transcription exactly as promised.
Answer: Pretty much a scam in terms of pay. I earned around $30.00 my first day for 6 hours or more of tedious work. That's easily under minimum wage in every state in the United States. With that being said, they also will deactivate you in a heartbeat if you fall below their ridiculous standards. There's a reason that California will not allow for its residents to work for companies such as these. They are scams who pay slave labor wages. Stay away.
Answer: Good reviews. Not worth it. I will work with local translators next time.
Answer: Impossible. They ignore emails, and do not answer calls outside standard business hours. But most critical is to have a web based service that ignores emails from clients.
