Work from home typists are administrative professionals who prepare documents for their employers. They are sometimes called remote word processors or online copy clerks. Instead of traveling to the office daily, work from home typists complete assigned tasks remotely from home or a location of their choice with internet connectivity. As a work from home typist, your responsibilities vary, depending on the industry and company. Common job duties are typing up letters, forms, and reports, but you may also transcribe audio recordings of events, meetings, or executive notes. Employers expect you to finish these tasks quickly, efficiently, and accurately, according to their needs and timelines.
