This question should give you insight into how the freelancers views their role. Data entry specialists should be able to transcribe large amounts of information accurately and quickly. Good time-management and interpersonal skills are also valuable.
Data is only useful if it’s accurate. Good candidates should be able to describe strategies they use to ensure that they’re accurately transcribing information. Good answers might include reading the data multiple times before entering, or manually comparing their entries against the originals before submitting. Some database management systems, including Excel and SQL, also have tools for data validation that experienced freelancers will be familiar with.
After accuracy, speed is the most important quality of a good data entry specialist. Traditionally, words per minute (WPM) has been the standard metric for measuring typing speeds. A good rule of thumb is to look for a typing speed somewhere in the neighborhood of 55-80 words per minute (WPM). Touch typing, the ability to type without looking at the keyboard, is important not only because it allows workers to type more quickly, it also allows them to catch (and fix) errors much more reliably.
Especially if they’re working remotely, data entry specialists won’t always be able to easily ask questions about the documents they’re working with. In these cases, they should feel confident in their ability to scan complex and often incomplete records and recognize which entries matter most. Depending on your business needs, these entries will vary.
Experienced data entry specialists should have strategies for staying focused and ensuring accuracy, even after several hours of work. Some strategies might include taking short breaks or alternating data entry with another task for short periods. They might also vary their process, for example by changing the order in which they input various entries, forcing their brains to focus on each task individually.
Depending on your business needs, a data entry specialist may be expected to work with sensitive or even protected information. If your industry is subject to privacy regulations, ask how the specialist can ensure compliance with them.
Though there may be instances where a data entry specialist should flag a document as incomplete and requiring more information, in general they should be able to resolve minor discrepancies on their own.
