If you come across any of the following on a live job, follow the instructions below each item.

• Transcribing English-only conversations on a Spanish account.

  • If you receive a job that is English only, please open a Help Ticket.  You may be asked to reject the job back to the client UNLESS the job is specifically an English to Spanish translation.  For information on rejecting a job, click here: Reject a job.mp4.

• Labeling more than two speakers. 

  • If a client lists names for more than two speakers in their job instructions, you should still label the job according to our normal speaker labeling policies.  Label the main interviewer and main interviewee by name or speaker number.  Everyone else will be Other Speaker.
    

• Providing a due date.

  • If a client provides a "due date" in their job instructions, we do not honor this request.  You will still be held to SpeakWrite's expected turnaround time policies.
    

• Requesting templates other than SpeakWrite's standard Spanish template.

  • If a client makes a request for a different template, do not follow this instruction.  Use the standard Spanish template. Formatting procedures for Spanish PDF jobs, Spanish Single-Speaker jobs, and English to Spanish jobs click here.
    

• Jobs containing any language other than English and Spanish.

  • We do not transcribe jobs containing languages other than English or Spanish.  If a different language is spoken, open a Help Ticket to let us know.  You may be asked to reject the job back to the client. 
    

• Transcribing only certain portions of an audio.

  • Example:  The client requests that you only type until the 2-minute mark on a 30-minute job.

  • If a client requests that you only transcribe a small portion of an audio, do not follow this instruction.  Please transcribe the entire audio.  open a help ticket immediately. This way we can check if the time stamps should be honored or not.
