It is a lot easier compared to speaking to a large focus-group which could take six to eight hours on average. This is because we speak much faster than even the fastest typist can type. A transcriptionist doesn’t just type what he or she hears –but it has to make sense.

A good transcriptionist should know when to apply the right punctuation and pick the right homonym other than typing what is just being said. It is not just a matter of typing the right words; it’s also a matter of putting emotion on how the word is said. The quality of audio greatly affects the length of transcribing time.
