SUMMARYUsing a voice-recognition application, Captioning Assistants support communications for deaf or hard of hearing callers using a Captioned Telephone. Your role would be to listen to the speaker and repeat what they are saying into the voice recognition software. The software then transcribes your spoken words into written captions for our clients. This works similar to closed captioning you see on TV!
