I know that Rev seems to be on everyone’s work from home list, but you MUST have the right expectations when signing up for captioning with them or you will be severely disappointed.
There is a two-step qualification test for the interview process, where you are asked to caption and sync words to a couple of short videos. It’s pretty easy to get the hang of it, but it will require a decent amount of uninterrupted time.
Here’s where it gets hard: the jobs that are available to the newbies are often VERY difficult to understand and caption, and require listening to the same video segments countless times until you think you have all of the words correct and then syncing the words perfectly with the speaker, which also takes a long time. I have come across videos where there are multiple speakers that are never seen and it’s incredibly difficult to even hear what they’re saying most of the time. You might make $3.50 for a six minute video that you have just spent two hours working on–Ie: $1.75/hour.
I have heard that once you reach Revver status (80 minutes of near perfect captioning), you have access to much better quality videos, which would most likely yield better pay and faster completion. I’m not saying don’t do this, but just know what you’re in for and how much time you’re willing to invest for the amount of pay.

#5 was a complete waste of time for me. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Thanks for the list though.

Hi Ashlee,

Thanks for putting this list together for us. It goes to show there are plenty of ways to make some extra money and do it from the comfort of our own home.

You’ve shared some new ones for me too…the music reviewing sounds interesting.

You know I’m passing this along. Have a great week!
