How Do I Get Started?

From what I can see the only place to apply for iDictate is on Quicktate’s website.  When you complete your typing tests for Quicktate if you do really well you will be asked to take the test for iDictate.  So there is opportunity like I did to start right away.  If you are not ready, the test is available on your homepage in Quicktate to take when you are ready.

Final Thoughts

So far iDictate is looking like a pretty solid company.  There looks to be plenty of work as I get emails all throughout the day that work is available to type.  With pay being as low as it is this would not be a current income replacer but an excellent egg in the basket for money and experience on the resume!
