Has anyone any idea how to employ someone to transcribe recorded interviews? Doing my masters and hoping to interview 8 to 10 people for about an hour but have no inclination to do the transcriptions myself!!!

I'd highly recommend doing at least some of the transcription yourself, if for no other reason than it really does help you get to know the material. If you're going to be analysing them, you can make a lot of the time back on your transcription by knowing exactly what transcript contained what elements...
