Some customers are just foolish. After getting all the necessary explanation from a rep, they still keep asking the same dumb and foolish questions, thus unnecessarily increasing audio time. angry grin I almost broke the screen of my laptop because of one foolish customer that keeps asking dumb questions. Even though she knows the necessary procedure to follow and the rep providing her with clear explanation, she kept asking the same dumb questions. And to make things worse, her method of speaking is the mumbling type, whereby you will have to listen patiently to understand what she's saying. Just as I dey vex, the rep too dey vex grin. But the rep didn't make it obvious, you can easily deduce from the tone of her voice.
grin grin grin grin grin

Wow that's impressive.

How do you speed up thingshuh? I am thinking of purchasing an external microphone so I could use google voice to speed up things, but idk. What do you use?

Also, I passed the exams July and never went any further. Logged in some minutes ago and they are demanding I re-take the test again.
Yeah. New upgrades everyday.
I don't speed things, though. I actually slow the speech by three points. I just listen to the convo and type really fast. cool

Congrats bro.

How do you speed up your transcriptions? Transcribing 32 minutes audio would probably take you how many hours? 10 hours?
Between 5hr and 8hrs

It's obvious some of their customers went on break.
True that.
I did a penfutter call Sunday, where the rep was complaining how he was bored these past weeks. Said if they were in session, he'd have been so busy. And he just can't wait for the hols to be over.

Well, I don't have dollar to pay anyone. I can only pay the equivalent. Plus setting price structure in dollar makes it more stable. I could set it in Naira and the value will plummet next week.
I mailed you. Please respond.

Hi guys, what do you do when it's so difficult to tell what speakers are saying.. Is it better to just release the call or allow the time to expire?
If you still have release tokens and the time is still way too long to wait it out, sure thingy!
If you've exhausted your release for the day, you got no other option than to wait... grin

Those of you who avoid Air Strike and FC calls don't know what you've been MISSING.
The best audio and simplest versus the best paying.
Shed more light na... I've picked their calls 50+mins a number of times. Yes, best audio. But then, multiple participants. It's difficult to tell who the cust is amongst them... undecided

Hi, Guys. I'm just starting out. I just released one CLH call now. Initially, everything was clear and easy, I was beginning to wonder why so much time was allotted. Anyways, midway into the call Rep enter bedroom voice, tried my best but eventually had to give up.

My question is please how can I play the call from start to end? Make I no if I go do the job at all. Thanks.

PS: I'm using Android
Have you downloaded volume booster? It helps.

Working on air strike call. Apparently the intended customer is not around. However, the call was routed to her voice mail. Should I continue?
If there's exchange of personal info, go ahead, I guess. I'm not too sure. Please contact SCC in slack.

Enjoy your extra release token. Meanwhile, please delete that pick. The CID is there, and its a very vital confidential information.

The App have option to delete files completely.

Baba, drop those line on how to pick calls on QAWorld biko, we are waiting.
Did you not read this?
SUPERPACK:
before you pick any call do a fast calculation to be sure. Use the ratio 3:1, this translates to 3mins call is equal to 1-hour call turn around time. so let say you pick a 15mins call, it should be 15/3=5hours. anything more than 5hours simply means it is an FC..UK or CLH call.
And this
samsard:
Regular 10 minute call is allowed a turnaround time of about 3 hours 20 minutes.
15 minutes call has an allowed time of 5 hours, 1:3.
But for the difficult calls, you have about 7 hours to complete a 10 minute call, of course it doesn't take that long to actually complete it but that's an incentive to get people to take their time on those because you'll have no AI transcript or a half useless AI transcript.
Just make sure you're working withun the guidelines.
That's all the info you need. What's left is, how fast you are in your calculations, because of the "clicking fest." grin grin
Kai! @samsard be dropping dope lines time and again!

And, I just concluded a call I picked in the morning. angry
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Self Employment Opportunity: Transcribing For A Living In Nigeria Part 1 by brijibs: 5:04pm On Sep 26, 2019
Anyways, I have an experience to share. I planned on sharing this just after receipt of last week's pay, to be sure.
So, late Saturday night, I picked a 44min long call. Excited it was good call, I started transcribing.
After the 500th timestamp, the audio won't load. I ran to slack immediately. And as usually, they blamed it on my network. While I was trying to sort this with them, I opened an incognito page and started the job afresh there. At this time, I had 6hrs left to submit the job.
TL said the call had expired on me, my network was bad, and all sorts. I left her and simply did copy and paste.
Then, I got to the 542nd timestamp and the audio stopped loading. I ran back to slack, this time, I was really pissed! An SCC came to help, she too could not load beyond 500.
TL asked for screenshots, screen recording just to prove the call was still available to me, since she claimed someone else was working on the same call. I provided her with all she requested and waited. She said, I shouldn't bother continuing the job till they're able to figure out what the ish was.
30mins later, she call me, conducted another round of interview and hung up. But, before she hung up, she assured me I'd be paid for the length of time I'd worked on the call. But, it would be done manually, since I didn't get to complete and submit the call. Later, she apologized to me, that it was actually my email that was working on the call. So, it was a system glitch on their part.
I was elated! And decided to share, but only after I'd received the payment and confirmed I was paid for the 32+ mins I'd worked on that call. Through the night!

So, I'm sharing this because, we have this notion that they favor Philipinos more. While that may be true, if you do you due diligence, you just might be able to hold your own.
