Landmark Associates is a company that has been hiring work at home transcribers for quite some time.
The company has been in existence since 1987, and they specialize in interviews, panel discussions, and focus groups. If you are hired to do transcriptions for Landmark, most of the files you work on will fall under those categories.
It appears they only hire US-based transcribers, with the exception of California residents, whom they cannot hire due to California Assembly Bill 5, which makes it harder for companies to classify workers as independent contractors instead of employees.
How much does Landmark pay?
Landmark doesn't list the rate of pay on their website. The only thing it really says about it is that you'll be compensated based on the length of the audio files you transcribe.
But I've done some digging around on different work at home forums to find out what I can, and most will say that the pay is OK — particularly if you're new to transcription. So my guess is that they pay a lot more than Quicktate or Transcribe Me (low-paying companies that are very entry-level).
Do you need experience?
Landmark does prefer to hire people with transcription experience. However, there is a skills test to pass when you apply. If you can pass that test, there may be a chance they'll take you on regardless of your past experience so it's worth a try.
How is the schedule?
Like most transcription work, it's very flexible. You can let them know how much work you're able to do, and they will try to accommodate that.
What do people say about Landmark?
I checked Glassdoor and overall people like the flexibility and the helpful staff. The work flow is supposedly seamless, with great software.
On the downside, transcribers complain about the fact that even though the pay is fair enough for transcription at Landmark Associates, transcription work in general doesn't pay enough.
How can you get started?
The application page at Landmark has all the info if you want to apply and take the test.
Keep in mind this post is just a general overview of the transcription position at Landmark, and doesn't necessarily mean I know that they are for sure hiring right now.
They are also frequently looking for translators.
Good luck if you apply!
