Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en TranscribeMe (Montreal, QC) en ene 2020
Entrevista
I created an account by singing in with Google, and then realized that it was a Customer account instead of a Transcriptionist account. Oops. I immediately made another account with my second email to sign up as a transcriptionist instead. DO NOT DO THIS! I spent around 6 hours to study and complete the exams in both French and English and passed them both. I had to wait 1 day for a response from the website. Their response was that they detected "fraudulent activity" with my account and they banned me from their site FOR LIFE. Apparently, under no circumstance should you have created two accounts. Even though I never signed into the first one and never used it (I didn't even confirm it by email)!
They seemed to be suggesting that I could have cheated on the exams as a result of having these two accounts. They did not explain how that makes sense, and they blatantly lied to me in saying that I hadn't followed the rules that are mentioned in the instructions before creating an account. I looked through the FAQ that they suggest you read before creating an account and there is not a single mention of the risk of being banned for life due to having created two accounts with them. When I contacted them and politely explained my mistake in creating the Customer account first, they just rigidly doubled down on their assumption that I had engaged in fraudulent activity, and made it clear that they are not interested in the specifics of why I made the mistake.
I suggest avoiding this company at all costs, as they clearly don't value your time and will punish you disproportionately if they perceive that you have made a mistake. There are a number of horror stories on Reddit related to them as well that I recommend looking into.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
To transcribe 3 sample audio files and answer multiple answer questions about things that are written in the Instructions guide.
The interview process was more of an exam. You were able to study their basic format and guidelines and then you had to successfully transcribe two jobs with a small margin for error. It was a good introduction to the work you did and it was helpful to test your working knowledge of their guidelines. Once you passed, you were able to begin work!

Too intense, they expect 100%, it was too hard and the pay was not promising. It does not match the work available, not talk that transcription is a dying profession.

Do not waste your time trying to apply for them. I would advise doing thorough research before applying to any similar platform because the pay rates and level of common sense vary greatly from one platform to another. The TranscribeMe exam is difficult: it will take forever to prepare for, hours to complete and you will be rejected even if you pass. I wish I would have read other people's reviews before wasting so much of my time. After I passed the test, I quickly received an automated email stating that I violated their terms by opening multiple accounts or that the answers submitted were not entirely my own. Needless to say, neither was true. My guess is they have enough/too many people working on the platform and do not currently accept new entries. If this is the case, then they should suspend the application process. It's thick-skinned behavior, not to mention borderline cruel of them to allow applicants to waste so much time and energy in vain.
