Join Our Team! Job Opportunities

This year is looking good and moving along pretty fast. It's already mid-January. The Bynes Company has jumped on board with various projects this year. See projections. In turn, we will be needing your help. As most of you know, our recruiting is done on Odesk. We suggest you create a profile, take the necessary tests/quizzes, upload your portfolios and list all of your job experiences accordingly. An incomplete profile will not yield possible results in your job search.

For contractors - working on Odesk gives you the opportunity to generate a healthy income by working with more than one client at a time.
  • Odesk allows you to quiz yourself to see where you are with your skills
For Clients - working on Odesk provides an all in one Human Resource and Management platform that's reliable and safe. It allows clients to bring in their off line team as well as hire new team members directly from the site.

Bynes Transcript & Typing Services is constantly posting ads for assistance to handle projects of all types and sizes. Currently, we hired a web designer to re-design our website, which is going on right now.

Here are our departments

Accounting
Administration
Marketing
Billing
Customer Service
Account Support

Positions within these departments 

Transcribers
Proofreaders
Social Media Specialists
Marketing Phone reps
Accounting-Bookkeepers
Clerical Specialist
Writers/Bloggers

At any given time, and if you're looking, we will have an ad posted for one of the mentioned positions. The opportunity is there.

Is General Transcription a Career Move for You?

Let's get this New Year started!
Hooray! You've made it past the proverbial 'end of the world' scare featured on December 21 2012 and a few hours ago, wished and prayed a new year in. Like we said, you made it.  Now what? January 1st is here already knocking on the door of tomorrow. Time to start thinking goals, objectives and career.

Why we created this blog

Goals, dreams, minor pursuits, success, stability. Whatever your aspirations are, we want you to know that we know exactly what you're thinking and your thoughts are probably up in the air about what you want to do. Okay, so our industry is transcribing and if you've subscribed to this blog, chances are, transcribing is your industry too.

This blog was designed with you in mind, the freelancing transcriptionist, the freelance worker who transcribes for a living. If you're just starting out, you'll soon realize that this industry can be a scary place simply because there is a tremendous amount of competition. There are several niches to choose from and loads of do's and don'ts to follow. If you've been in the business for a while, then you know exactly what I am talking about. New or not, we want you to take a look around here, feel comfortable and grab all of the information we have to share with you.


Why we consider our freelancers to be a part of our team

Freelancers are considered team members with Bynes Transcript & Typing Services because they are just that  - a team. I have to tell you most of the time, if it wasn't for our team, we'd still be back there purchasing 'liquid' white out from Office Depot to correct type writer errors! Funny, huh? Our members are diligent in providing the best work on the planet - yes, the planet! They're dedicated, they communicate, they improvise if need to. These are traits worth fighting for when you're working with people.

How are we able to pick such pristine workers?

Passion for what you love to do
It's all a part of our interview process. No, we do not grill our candidates. We simply ask them a series of questions about themselves, past experiences working online and to give a detailed description of the most challenging project they've worked on.  We do this to be able to learn more about each person that will be potentially working with us. I observe how they answer just as well as what their responses are. Believe it or not, you can learn great things about people this way. In my organization, I look for compassionate, patient, well-mannered, leader-ship type candidates to become a part of our team.

More to come

There is more information to share with you, which will be distributed on a weekly basis. Please feel free to comment in the boxes below in each post.
