GoTranscript Transcriber Test Audio

Speaker 2 explains that the audio is a test for aspiring GoTranscript transcribers, assessing their ability to accurately transcribe speech as well as follow the company's guidelines for punctuation and formatting. The speaker notes that many use technology to help with transcription but still struggle with proper punctuation and knowing where to look up rules. Even advanced AI systems cannot fully replace human transcription when it comes to adhering to specific guidelines. The test aims to find transcribers who are willing to put in the effort to learn guidelines rather than relying solely on automation.

Speaker 1: This audio is used for the transcriber test at GoTranscript.

Speaker 2: This is a new test for GoTranscript, it's for all you would-be transcribers who are
supposed to be listening to the test, and transcribing what you hear. Now, you might think that
this is super easy.  A lot of people use all sorts of devices nowadays to help them transcribe.
However, there's not a lot of people who know where to put the commas. In this test, you're also
expected to look things up in the GoTranscript guidelines. I would say that nine out of 10 people
won't do that.

Even if you have awesome automated transcription skills, you still don't know the combination
rule in the guidelines, so you won't pass the test. Even if I tell you that eight out of 15 People
won't bother looking things up in the guidelines, you still won't do it. And most AI programs
won't get it right neither.
In fact, I just tested that by using a new feature in Microsoft Word for voice dictation. Guess
what? It didn't get any of the stuff I'm putting in here, which is referenced in the guidelines
correct. That's why we give you these tests. We don't want people that just use AI to transcribe
everything. Heck, we could do that ourselves and save $5 or £8.

If you're so lazy, you won't even bother looking in the guidelines from the company you want to
work for. Why should we hire you?

It does say in the Bible, Luke 10:7, if I'm not mistaken, that the laborer is worthy of his or her
hire. But doesn't that work both ways? Doesn't the person doing the hiring have a right to expect
some labor in exchange for that hire? Sure. There's a theory that people in their 20s don't have as
much of a solid work ethic as people born in the 70s. But I personally think that's a lot of hooey.

In conclusion, let me just remind you that FINRA Rule 4370 requires that a firm disclose to its
clients, how its business continuity plan addresses possible disruption in various scenarios, and
its response to those scenarios. Not only that, but you may elect to enroll in eDelivery by
providing your email address wherever indicated. However, you may always request a paper
copy of any document, which we'll be happy to deliver by the next available autogyro.
