A drywall taper is the person who comes in after the drywall (plasterboard ) is hung and puts mud (spackling) on the joints and then seals the joints with a line of paper tape then covers the tape with more spackle

This is then allowed to dry , is sanded smooth and a second layer of spackle is applied
