Top Data Entry related questions

While there are no requirements for any formal education for someone who does data entry, try to find Taskers who have some experience in the job and a typing speed of at least 35 words per minute. Try to find someone courteous and trustworthy when keeping to any non-disclosure agreement you may need to protect your data. You can see if a Tasker has these qualities from their reviews and ratings from past clients.  

An average set of databases to transcribe can take 3 to 12 weeks, depending on their size, volume and complexity. The speed at which your data entry services are rendered can also vary from Tasker to Tasker, depending on their typing speed. You can try to find a Tasker who has a typing speed of at least 35 words per minute, but note that Taskers who type faster can charge more.    

No. Your hired data entry Tasker will typically have their own equipment like a desktop or laptop computer along with a fast internet connection. They’ll also have a headset and webcam to do video calls if you need to meet them. You should provide the data for them to work on and any software you want to use to compile the database. Also, make sure your computer is in perfect shape to have video calls with your Tasker.

Yes, you can! Recorded conversations in business meetings are among the many types of data you can hire data entry Taskers to document. Data entry clerks and data entry administrators can accurately transcribe this and other recorded voices, such as physicians who record their medical reports on patients. You can find the right kind of data entry Taskers for as long as you specify what you need in your job posting. 

Yes, but most transcription software on the market can be costly and not be as sensitive as the human ear. Most transcription software isn’t advanced enough to detect different or unusual accents, so the transcription may not always be accurate. You can develop an app to help you transcribe your data or go the more convenient route - hire a data entry specialist. 

It’s unusual for Taskers not to agree to this kind of contractual stipulation. If a Tasker doesn’t agree to an NDA, you can find other Taskers amenable to this instead. Be sure to mention the sensitive nature of your data and that you can only hire Taskers who will agree to a non-disclosure agreement. You can also check reviews and ratings of each Tasker so you can see if they can be discreet and professional.   

What do data entry clerks do?

Data entry clerks help you to get information where it’s most useful for you. It may mean typing up data held on bits of paper or it may be a case of copying information from one system to another. 

Either way, you need to find someone who is computer savvy, who ideally has strong typing and admin skills and who is also reliable and accurate with their work. As well as data entry, you may be able to find a Tasker to help with other work. 

Spreadsheets

Data entry work often involves working with spreadsheets, as this is one of the most common ways to export data from a platform. Finding a spreadsheet expert, or at least someone who is familiar with Excel, is a promising start, as they’ll be able to sort data, hide unnecessary columns and work quickly. 

PDF to doc

PDFs are a great way to present information, but they’re not very easily edited, and data can be locked away. Hiring someone to convert a PDF to another type of doc that’s better suited to your needs can be a real time saver. 

Typing

For businesses that have been around for a while, you may find that much of your data is on paper, in filing cabinets and essentially inaccessible. Hiring a quick typist will let you modernise this process. They’ll type up the information you have stored away in the most suitable format so that you can easily store and access this data digitally. 

Online research

An online researcher can help you to pull data from the internet and collate it in an easy-to-read fashion. No matter what you want – details of similar businesses in your area, contact details for a certain industry or a list of upcoming events – you can find someone on Airtasker to help get that information for you.
