Thank you again for taking the time to type this very informative post.  These types of posts actually help many people, I do believe.  Like you, I do all my own MTSO work and have not yet had to farm any out.  My MDs are great in that they all pay me by the 15th of the following month.  I pretty much demand that because the work is all back in their offices by the 30th or 31st of that prior month....so wanting to get paid by the 15th of the following month is reasonable.  I am sorry for your delinquent client but my docs know I only bill out once a month and that cuts down on the billing part of being an MTSO. 

What I HATE about being an MTSO....is all those receipts you have to keep all year long...but it's not the keeping of the receipts, it's the TAX PREP that we face within the next 6-12 weeks....oh what a mess that always is....not a mess - but so time consuming that I do hire someone to do that clerical stuff to get things ready for the TAX people......my daughter is the one I hire (and yep, I do pay her well to do that part of the work). 

Again, thank you so much for your informative posts.  Be well....

I've thought about going back to Transolutions, and this looks interesting. How are they coming up with the hourly rate offered to each person, do you know? What sort of accounts? I was wondering if this was a crew of people who went around getting the new accounts started or filling in when there is an overload on accounts. Is there any special or different training? Would I be working on the DOS or Windows platform?

Any info would be great.

Please post only if you have worked there in the last year. There are lots of negative posts from late 2004, but from what I understand, there have been major management changes since then, so I'd like to hear from those of you who have experiences from 2005.  Thanks!

I got paid that as a new grad just 3 years ago.  I really do need a job but at that rate It's just not worth it.

Knowledge?  Spelling?  Typo?  Punctuation?  Grammar?  Inconceivable to me that an untimed open-book test would be a problem. 

I (along with many others)  was laid off due to a merger a few years ago.  I filed for unemployment and several weeks later, before it was granted, I was invited to test to be hired back. For 10 years prior to that, with several companies, I had always scored over 98% on QA reviews, but on this test I ''passed the knowledge portion and failed the transcription portion.'' I always figured that the invitation was with the hope that many of us would not respond; then they could say they had offered us jobs, but we refused.   But when I actually did play the game and took the test, I ''failed'' because they really did not want any of us back and were just hoping I would not test, that way they could say I refused a job offer and avoid paying unemployment. 

At least, that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
