About the post 

The duties of a Typist today are not merely limited to typing only. Typists also do not have to work in isolation and can work in a team environment. If a company wishes to increase the efficiency of their business, they would rather employ typists in the office environment and train them with some basic typing skills first. Quality of output is equally important as the quantity of output, which may be somewhat lacking if one is just a typist. Since hardly any time is spent on training, typing speed and accuracy is not great for an inexperienced typist and even for an experienced typist it isn’t always perfect because there are so many other activities that may be taking place during the time that typing needs to be done.
