CLOSING DATE: 1 September 1994

Voice Processing Corporation, a leading speech recognition company located in
Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, is starting two more speech sample collection
projects, one in Portugal (Lisbon) and one in Italy (Milan).

For both countries, VPC is looking for an individual to oversee the
collection. This person should be a native of the country, be creative, and
have a basic understanding of computers.

The task of this person will be to get people to call into a system, and read
some digits and words. The projects will start in September, and should last
about 1 month. This is not a full-time job, rather around 15 or 20 hours per
week.
