AccuStat Wisconsin recruiter replies...

Hey fellow MTs - I got an immediate response from AccuStat (WI) when I replied to one of their ads.  I did some research on the company before I told them I was interested.  My reply email was 12 hours after they sent me theirs.  Now I haven't heard from them.  I wonder if I waited too long to respond.  I was actually trying to decide between 2 companies and guess I took too long.  Haven't heard back from either one of them.

The job searching and not knowing what's behind door #3 is the almost the worst part of this profession. 

Thank goodness for this board!  I have made many, many a career decision based partly and sometimes entirely on these comments.  TY!

Would anyone have any info on this company based out of Wisconsin?

TIA!

 I have been working for this company for 6 months as an IC (editor and MT).  The owner is great to work and pay is always on time.   The dictators I get are like dreams.  Having to have a C-phone can be a bit of an obstacle, but luckily for me I am an oldie and so I have one.  Great work, straight  typing and you are actually paid for what you do.  I know there are so many questions about different companies and I wanted to give my opinion on this one.

Have a great day!

and now offering direct deposit.   This is a great company to work for.  It is not associated or affiliated with any other AccuSTAT nor does it have branches anywhere outside of Wisconsin.  The MTSO is very responsible, professional, and caring, which is something that you can't really find around anymore, including flexibility, something a lot of us look for, especially those of us with children.   There is plenty of work and you use  Softmed aka Chartscript headers and a C-phone to transcribe.  The dictators are great and very little, if any, ESL, and those do speak very good English.   I have been with this company now for 6 years, and I can assure you that I would not  think of working anywhere else.  Flexibility, pay on time, direct deposit, good dictators, and a responsible, caring, and professional MTSO are on the top of my list!

Medscript Transcription Service, out of Watertown or Oconomowoc - has anyone worked there,  any info good or bad to share?

Mediscript and Medscript out of Texas and/or Florida are different companies and not what I'm looking for.   Thanks. 

 I am leaning toward Webmedx.  They offer fantastic benefits.  It's true, the starting pay for ERs is not great, but with the incentive plan and evening/weekend differential - yeah, not bad.  They offer a 12-hour window for getting work done (on some accounts). 

 Now, the question is, are the ESLs okay, bad, simply terrible, or just flat out unbelievable?!!!! 
 

I'm trying not to beat myself up too much about the test/score.  I guess what they meant by timed test is that you have 24 hours to reply to the email and/or take the test and send it back to the company.  But even still, I took as much time as I needed and used all of my reference materials to make double sure my answers were right.  There was only one question that I could not find an answer to and therefore I guessed at the answer but even still that shouldn't have given me the score of 88.  But, needless to say, that is water under the bridge and I'm moving down the river to stop at the next sand bar. 

As a matter of fact I have another email in my box from another company wanting to talk to me but need to do a little research on them first.  Zylomed - any info?

I try not to rely solely on Radiology, however, it is my absolute favorite.  I absolutely, postively cannot stand to do OP notes so I try to stay away from hospital accounts. 

Again thank you all for your replies and support, it really helps when you are beating yourself up to have someone else to try to pat you on the back and give a boost of self esteem.
