Speaker 1: Thanks for your interest in Rev.

v. Please listen carefully to the audio file all the way to the
end, and please edit and transcribe as needed, correcting misspellings, researching
names, and attributing speech to the correct speaker to create an accurate and
complete transcript. Let's talk a little bit about Rev and its expectations.

Speaker 2: Great, so tell us how Rev got started.

Speaker 1: CEO Jason Chicola says that the idea for Rev.com was inspired by his time at oDesk. Mr.
Chicola started the site with co-founder and former oDesk colleague Josh Breinlinger in
2010. They were joined by other MIT classmates who built this platform, which now
specializes in transcription, captions, foreign subtitles, and document translation. Rev
started Temi as well.

Speaker3: What does Rev look for in a freelancer?

Speaker 1: A strong command of the English language is essential. It's important to know which
word fits the context, such as, "They're going to get their books from there." We also
value research skills such as correctly spelling Sysco Food Company, Cisco Software, as
well as C# and SQL Programming Languages. Your files are graded on accuracy and
formatting. You're going to need to follow Rev style guidelines. It's important that
quality is consistent.

Speaker 2: How do you handle difficult audio?

Speaker 1: We recommend that agents work on files with which they're comfortable. Otherwise,
use appropriate notation tags such as inaudible tags for indiscernible dialogue. Please
do your best to clear inaudibles by slowing down audio or rewinding.

Speaker 3: Do we transcribe non-English speech? [foreign language 00:01:50]

Speaker 1: Use foreign language tags for foreign language speech. If the file is 100% in a foreign
language or is only an automated recording, then the file is considered unworkable and
must be unclaimed not submitted.

Speaker 2: What about software or equipment?


Speaker 1: Rev's software is optimized to work with the latest version of Google Chrome browser
and using Mozilla Firefox as a backup. We recommend good quality headphones or
earbuds. You'll need a laptop or a computer with a keyboard. Please, no iPads, iPhones,
nor Android tablets.

Speaker 3: How do the agent get paid?

Speaker 1: We pay via PayPal on Mondays by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Well, that's all the time we
have for now. Thanks for taking the time to speak with me.
