Ah, I see. No, I didn't find anything very recent...

but with that kind of track record over that many years, I can't imagine it would be a safe bet in any circumstance, unless a major total rehaul somehow, which seems doubtful.

Good luck.

Trying to find info on Encompass on this board, can't find any recent. sm
Anyone have any current info. Any employees out there? Give me the low-down if you can! Thanks a million.

Any recent info on JLG? I couldn't seem to find anything. TIA

didn't you see in a recent e/mail?
They have a huge new account and are bringing people on for that.

Any NEW information about Interpro? All I find in the archives arent very recent

I sure didn't find that to be true - sm
My acct is about 10% ESL, my secondary is about 25% ESL. I know that your line rate is based on the difficulty (ESL) level of the account. Miss Willy might have had a poor experience, but the other 550 MTs working there (some for many years) are not so bad.

i didn't find the communication to be good
well, it was as long as i said everything was rosey. Soon as things weren't so perfect, they became much less than friendly.

Thanks. I did search the archives, but didn't find the answers (SM)
to my specific questions. That is why I posted.

I did QA, didn't find their platform great. I've seen
a recent post where they pay 8 cpl. Sound quality and dictators horrible and no way is 8 cpl enough. They have constant tunover.

I'm surprised the main office didn't find a bunch of
What a totally assinine 'gift'. I'll bet the globe was made in India, too.

Did find a Wright Watson Sten-Tel in Austin if their site isn't old. Find 'em with Google. nm

I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.

She didn't say they didn't offshore at all s/m
What she did say is that if the work needs to be done here, it stays here (paraphrased a bit, I think).

That is not lying and saying that they don't offshore work, as was stated by another poster above, but saying that if the client wants the work to stay in the US, they will keep it here. Sheesh.

What recent changes? nm

This was recent thank you
I did take a leap of faith with them and they do pay on time now. They turned that around but nothing else. I stuck up for them and got burned bigtime. All I said was they do not understand what an IC is and were very rude when I pointed it out. Not a vendetta, just a warning. Check them out and ask a lot of questions for clarification. That was all i was saying.

Anything recent on SPi - sm

Since the archives are acting up, need something current on SPi from someone in the know. Pay, work schedules, how they are to work with, etc.

Thanks.

Not recent, but I can say ...
Of all the companies I've worked for, they were by far and away my favorite. Easy platform, great dictators, (mostly) fantastic management. But, it's been over 4 years since I've worked for them.

I had been with them for a couple of years, had my set dictators, and they hired a new manager for my account who completely ripped everyone up and around and didn't communicate at all what she was doing or why. Long story short, there was a pretty big fall out with that account and several of us left. A month or two later, I heard she was fired.

I think about going back to them sometimes, honestly. And I would in a heartbeat, if they were like the old T-C I worked for back in the day. Can't say if they are or not, but historically they were a great company to work for.

Good luck!

Is there anything recent in there?
Everything I saw was from 4 to 6 years ago in the archives when they were using C-phones and only hiring IC's.

Does anyone work there now or worked there recently with any insight?

Anyone have recent info on OSI? nm

6 to 7-1/2 cpl for the most recent job posting!!! Don't think much of us, do they?...nm

What's up with all the recent firings?

Anyone have any recent OSI information?

Are benefits as good as they sound? How's the pay rate for acute and/or radiology? How are they to work for? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Any recent info on DSG?
Have been offered a job and wondering of pros and cons. TIA.

two recent interviews

I thought you might enjoy these two tidbits from recent interviews with unnamed companies. When I asked the first recruiter/owner about the insurance they offered in their ad, I was told that contract had lapsed and there was not a new one signed yet. She went on to volunteer her opinion that people are better off without health insurance -- that way you can use the free clinics (TRUE story). The second one advertised 8.5 to 10 cpl transcription and 0.4 to 0.5 VR. Unfortunately, those positions (although I applied within minutes of the post) were filled but I was offered 8 cpl transcription and 0.3 VR. Bait and switch much?

You will see that their most recent posting was for QA!

Any recent information on
TIA

Anyone with recent info on
how work is at Stenomed, ad on job board? TIA

Yes, recent experience
I applied in late August, but it took until just a week ago to receive passwords to work.

Very hands off management in my opinion, although very polite on phone. I think there is just not enough staff.

Also, very low error rate threshhold , but currently no QA and/or no way to flag a report. I was very very uncomfortable with the set up so I did not proceed.

YOU; however, might have better luck. :)

MDI-MD - Recent Hires

Just curious - if you had a phone interview, was the recruiter on time to call you? I had one scheduled but haven't received any contact.

Anyone else with this experience?

Any recent info on TNI?

Feel free to e-mail me if you don't feel comfortable posting. Thanks!

Any recent SPi info? sm
The archives have nothing very recent and nothing very nice to say about this company. Have things improved there over the last year? I notice their line count requirements are lower than most companies. Does this indicate an inability to provide MTs with enough work or good sound files? ANY recent information would be appreciated. Thanks!

Did you apply to either of their most recent ads and if so
did you hear back from them?

Recent TTS info anyone? (sm)
Wondering if anybody could post updated, recent info on TTS as to how the work load and getting paid on time have been for the past 6 months or so ??? TIA.

Is two months ago recent enough?.....
....I sincerely doubt they have changed their ways in the past two months, since I was terminated.

Be very, very careful if you accept any of their offers. Everything stated in old posts here are correct....and I know this by first hand experience and also from co-workers who had been there at the same time as I was, and experienced same or worse.....eventually.....

I wish you luck, but I'm afraid you will be sadly disappointed, perhaps not right away, but given enough time, if you go to work for them.

I noticed recent ads for MDI-MD
on MTJobs says full and part-time IC positions are available. Something new they are offering?

Was this a recent move?
Because it seems like everyone has been pretty happy there, that is, not hearing much complaints here on the board. Lack of work maybe?

recent posts...
Pay is late. Recruiter takes forever to get back with you, if ever.

chronicle-recent
I just left there about 3 weeks ago. They have Apex and another platform now. I didn't have any problems with the platform I was on. Work volumes were very, very low most days. I had 2 different accounts and there was no work on either for several days at a time. I didn't have problems with QA. My problem was with disorganization. I liked the company as a whole and I loved my account, but I wouldn't go back mainly because of the low work and no opportunity to make up time because of low work volumes most of the time.

To those of you recent MDI hires...sm

Were you hired just by submitting your resume, or was MDI advertising for help at the time? How long between the time you sent your resume and the time they called? Thanks.

Recent post on AOL

right, and recent is the key, archives not always but mostly too old.nm

Already checked out archives, nothing recent
Well, had an interview scheduled today with Amphion at 9:00 a.m. - they called and set it up - I'm still waiting for the phone call and it's 9:47 a.m. TransHealth called, now I called back and they're all in meetings. This is very frustrating. I think I will accept Oracle for the time being, since they are IC and TransHealth and Amphion are FTE, and keep waiting. Someone has to be a good match. I thought TransHealth or Amphion would be great choices, but now - set up an interview and not call? I didn't call them, they called me, but now after scheduling the interview - no one called? TransHealth sounds great - now if I can just connect with the guy who called me. If not ... who's next?

softscript--any recent info?

hi, all. i searched the boards for recent info on softscript; latest is from august--not very postive. they say they're interested in an RN w/ MT experience & sent the link to their test. just want to know if anyone working for them now (or who has worked w/ them recently) has any input.

thank you!

My recent experience with them was horrible.
There are a couple of MW cheerleaders here who bash me every time, but there are far better companies out there. They offshore. The sound quality and ESLs suck, for lack of a better word. I got ZERO QA feedback. They send out tons of emails and documents that don't even apply to everyone. They were completely rude and unhelpful to me.

Are you talking about recent or past?
I have been burned many times by nationals in the past, not recent. I will list just enough letters but one was Asce... and the another was NorthW...out in Oregon I believe. Not even sure if they are still in business. The NorthW one praised me in the beginning, but when it came time for getting paid suddenly I was making too many mistakes and I never saw my paycheck. Another was Rap... they have since changed their name and I eventually received my paycheck. It just took months to do so. I left them all. Most of the places I have only worked for short periods because things are great when you start, then suddenly for reasons only they know, the atmosphere gets very thick. Then the nasty e-mails start. I have really don't trust a lot of them and feel like getting hired on with them is a huge risk on my part every time. That's why I am here on a semi-regular basis to see what companies to avoid. Also, you can sort of tell by the way their ad is worded if they are professional or not.

happy typing everyone!

Lots of recent discussions, usually very
long threads weekly.

Any recent information on Transtech??
Just offered a postition with them on new account going live in a couple of weeks. I was just wondering how they were to work for, can you make your lines, etc. Thanks.

Any recent information on Transcript USA? -sm

I noticed in past posts they said they hound you when you're not working. But they're advertising a flexible schedule right now. Is that something new?

Any problems with getting paid? Is the pay decent?

Do they have decent accounts or are they for the most part extremely difficult?

Is their system efficient? I'm so tired of wasting so much time keeping logs of everything and having to type patients' names and data that I don't get paid for.

Is the sound quality good?

Is it really all American?

Recent ad stated they use Vianetta, not sure
how that system works. They also have different accounts that use different modes of accessing work.
