Transcriptionist Cover Letter Example

Dear Head of Human Resources,

As a bilingual Legal/Medical Transcriptionist with 3 years of experience, I apply with enthusiasm for this role.

I currently work as a part-time French/English Transcriptionist at P&L plc., where I support legal and medical clients ranging from SMEs to global corporations. With minimal supervision, I dive right in and accurately turn a wide variety of verbatim audio dialogue into written documents (patient notes, legal meetings, interviews, case reports, etc.). This requires a great deal of discretion, tact and autonomy, alongside excellent communication, listening, and language skills. I typically transcribe ~100 texts per week.

In addition to my experience, I hold a BA in French & English and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Communications. I type ~75wpm, and am familiar with all software in your description (Microsoft Office, OTranscribe, Inqscribe).

I have enjoyed my time at P&L very much. As they have no full-time transcription roles, I am now seeking a stimulating opportunity where I can make a meaningful impact.

Please find attached my resume for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours sincerely,

Philippe Beaumont
