I have done this at home alongside my full time job in HR and Recruitment but for the past 2 years I have done typing and administration jobs as my full time job from home.

    My typing speed is 70wpm.

    I am currently studying for a law degree at University as a mature student and so am doing typing from home whilst doing my degree.

    I have worked for psychiatrists, psychologists, expert witnesses and lawyers. This means that I have knowledge of medical terminology and drug names which can be very tricky!

    I have my own transcription software and pedal, and am available for the smallest request up to someone who needed me to commit to a certain number of reports/files each week. Just simply email the dictation to me and I can complete it in a very short time frame.

    References of course would be available upon request.

    I am confident that you would be really happy with the level of service I provide and I would always ensure work is delivered on time and to a high standard.

    Many thanks and I really look forward to working with you.

    Sophie

    Area Covered: Audio typing, transcriptions, medico-legal, expert witness reports


    Work Experience
    -----------------

    Summary: I worked full time ever since I completed my A-Levels, working in large multinational companies and also worked in a startup recruitment company.

    In all of my positions I have always had to be more than proficient using Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc. I have presented in front of directors and clients, I have had to act professional at all times when meeting prospestive candidates whilst interviewing them and throughout every position I have had to do all of my own admin tasks which means has always suited me because of my very organised nature!

    My CV is available if required.
    Job Title: Recruitment Officer
    Company: Medacs
    Description: Medacs is the most successful doctors locum agency in the UK currently.
    Over my years spent in Medacs I learned a massive amount about recruitment, sales, administration, organisation and objection handling.
    It was at times a very pressurised environment but I really enjoyed those times.
    From:04/May/2005 To:08/Jan/2009

    Job Title: Recruitment Officer
    Company: TeachersAnywhere
    Description: I was approached by TeachersAnywhere to help head up their start up recruitment business.
    I was involved in advertising the company, recruiting schools and teachers into the business by holding open days and visiting schools onsite and presenting to large numbers of staff.
    I had many targets including how many phonecalls I made a day, how many hours I booked, how much margin I brought in to the company and how many new teachers or schools I registered to the company.

    From this post I learned completely different skills that I hadn't learned previously working for such a large company, it was fantastic to get another perspective to the recruitment sector.
    From:29/Jan/2009 To:05/Jan/2010

    Job Title: In-House Recruiter
    Company: thebigword
    Description: thebigword is a multinational translation company and work with large clients such as Nokia and Electrolux. I worked in its head office in the HR team.

    I recruited for a wide range of roles including C#.NET developers for the IT division, administrators, translators, sales people, project managers, project directors, an IT director and even recruited for an office manager in Dubai.

    This was also a very different role for me as it was an in-house role and didn't have much of a sales aspect to it. I mainly recruited candidates, interviewed them over the phone then invited them in to complete a face to face interview, sometimes lasting up to 2 hours a time depending on the position.

    I left for my maternity leave in August 2010 and gave birth to my daughter in September.
    From:27/Jan/2010 To:05/Aug/2010

    Job Title: Virtual Assistant
    Company: Dr Sally Ward
    Description: I transcribe medico-legal reports, notes and letters for Dr Ward on a weekly basis and am currently continuing doing this.

    I download the information from an email then transcribe the reports, complete an invoice for the reports and send it back completed and ready for Dr Ward to check and send - simple!
    From:15/May/2006 To:17/May/2012

    Education Summary: I have been very lucky to have had a brilliant education, studying at Skipton Girls' High School, and studied there up until the age of 16 when I then moved to Craven College to study Law, Psychology and English Language for A-Level.
