Hello everyone!

An agency for "live" subtitling is asking me how much I charge for an hour of "live" transcription. The job consists of doing transcription from spoken Spanish to written Spanish (and working in Spain). I have never done this job before and I don't know which are the fees to avoid unfair competition. I don't want to ask them how much they normally pay unless I don't have another option.

Can anyone help me? Any suggestions?

Thank you very muc... See more
