I've submitted my resume for their QA position, and I haven't heard anything back yet. I was wondering if this could be due to the convention in Boston, or is this just the new trend in the application process? I've also submitted my resume to other companies, and there have been quite a few who haven't given even a short reply.
I know it's not because of a lack of experience, because I've been doing MT for over 15 years and QA for over 5. Any ideas of a great place to send my resume?

Anyone know how long it takes to hear back from Prescyse after taking the test?

Wow, in the non-MT world it can takes weeks to hear. nm

Takes a lot of time to hear back
I was job hunting in July and had the same experience, no responses. It took weeks to start hearing back, then the responses started coming in. I even got some responses 2 or 3 months after applying. It just seems to take a long time right now. You have to be very patient.
Takes away my incentive to type faster
Want to work fulltime for benefits, so that requires 8 hour shift, where as previously it was just based on line count in the past, so if one had the ability to type fast and accurate you could get your line count in, in maybe say 6 hours or so and then be done with your shift for the day, thus having a greater incentive to work more efficiently. Now have to sit there 8 hours to make sure I get benefits. I find I tend to type slower, why push myself, etc. (mental thing). I log in first thing, etc. so I don't miss any minutes, etc. I find that I spend at least 30 minutes per day downloading, checking/responding to work e-mails, etc, (not to mention having any type of problems with the computer or logging in like I did this morning, took almost half an hour just to get up and running) and feel that this should also be included in work time as it would be if I was in an office transcribing, etc. Basically, when my foot hits the door to my office, I consider myself at work. Even with logging in first thing, I'm still missing minutes here and there, which add up over the weeks time period. I understand how this program can help the company out with work flow issues etc, but feel that the real purpose in the end is to just monitor the MT, which is why it will eventually be tied to payroll automatically. If you don't get those hours in, even with more than adequate line count, well then we are back to part-time with no benefits, thus saving the company $$$ in the long run. What's your opinion?
Does anyone know how long it takes to get (sm)
equipment deposit of $300 back from Spheris once you return their equipment? I don't know who to contact. All I get is a voice mail without a return call. Thank you.
Anyone know how long it takes to
get test results back from Precyse Solutions. Are they as good as their website claims?
Anyone know how long it takes
quitting Spheris? Thanks!
let's see how long it takes for THIS to get pulled
we have actually been told in the past to not post about them -- it's THAT BAD. Womanizing horrible ignorant piece of crap company that doesn't give a rip about you. If you like being treated like an idiot -- go for it!
Sometimes takes twice as long to edit?
I just finished my first hour of VRing and I did 561 lines, that is at 4 cents a line and that equals to over $22 for that hour. I could never straight transcribe that many lines in 1 hour.
Yes, 6 cpl is low but three years is NOT a lot of experience. It takes that long to become sm
semi-proficient and we look for at least 5 years because of that. I would not go higher than 7 cpl with only three years experience and I think this is starting to be the norm.
Think of other fields ... plumbing apprentices, electrician apprentices, printing apprentices, etc. It takes 5 years to be a journeyman. They start at $8.00/hour and move to cap which is around $30/hour but it takes 10 years to get there.
Even teachers ... it takes 5-10 years to get top pay.
Any field.
Depends on how long it takes to get your ID from the facility. SM
Once that happens, they get you installed and going pretty quickly.
You can probably call them about the Lanier unit to see if they have any to rent to own.
When I worked with them, the insurance was very expensive and not very good. They have promised to get better, but that has been going on for a long, long time.
Does anyone know how long it takes to get the computer deposit SM
back after returning the computer? Thanks.

Recently tested for MxSecure and just wondering if anyone can tell me how long it usually takes (sm)
to hear back from them. I felt like I did pretty good on the test, but I was just wondering if it usually takes a while for them to get back to you?
TIA!
Tested with TT last week. Does anyone know how long it usually takes for them to response back.
I need a job...yesterday... I've been applying like crazy but cannot find anything worth taking. I'm getting pretty desperate but still not enough to take 3 cpl for VR but check back next week LOL
wow I had no idea. How long
have you been with them? I started there about 2 weeks ago and was cleared from QA in about a week and a half. They are very nice. I try to make sure I'm communicating and when I'm in doubt, I send it to QA. I also ask for feedback from QA so that I have something to go on for future reference. I hope I stay on there. The pay is good.

How long to hear back?

How long to hear back
I received an email earlier today from the MDI-MD recruter and she had been out of the office due to a death in the family.
How long before I can expect to hear --sm
from them? It hasn't been that long, but I'm anxious to talk with the recruiter.

Thanks

How long after you applied did you hear back? nm Thanks
Thanks for the info. The ad looks like as long as you type
60 minutes of dictation a day, and all is 24 hour turn around, they do not care about the hours. I will have to make sure to ask.
Just applied with them. Patience, how long did it take for you to hear back from them?
.
made type -- SO UPSET OVER TT and their NO WORK situation way TOO LONG now
sorry about type, but very, very upset with the TT has lost any concern/care for their MT's who make their paychecks for them. Dictatphone doesn't pay you your salary, nor pay for your raises. Your MT's allow your paychecks the remain the same and allow you to give yourselves RAISES.
Leads/sups, etc are transcribing OUR WORK now and we have none to little no paychecks to pay our bills.
You who are thinking of hiring on with TT better give some very consideration to your decision. GOOD ADVICE.
I said MAY NOT hear, didn't say you wouldn't hear. There is
a difference, and many people have said they knew they didn't do well on the tests, but still feel like they should have heard from companies and haven't.
No problem :) No matter how long, it is too long for me - I am broke the day after payday. Kids wi
do that to you!
I know that they have worked very hard to make sure that checks are never late and I can say that in the past two years, I have had one problem (2 days late) and in the past 18 months, they have all been on payday and perfect.
I know that there are a lot of hard feelings in MT in general. I also know firsthand (and I am not mgmt) how hard KS has worked to get things going good.
I would not want to walk in an MTSO's shoes for any amount of money, but that's just me. I like to finish my work for the day, forget about work when not working and get paid on payday. I never want the other things that go with mgmt or owning a company of any kind :)
Webmedx watches every min you type or don't type.
I personally didn't like logging off to go to the bathroom or get a drink or whatever. Drove me nuts. They were too regimented for me. Not sure if you are aware they do that. Part of working at home is the flexibility and they just weren't. Good Luck
They definitely rip you off with your line count. Figured this out long ago and quit long ago

It takes a while (nm)
nm
Only takes a second
Only takes a quick second to post a message if you have your MTStars alert set up to Radiology, Keystrokes or whatever company interested in, etc. It is not that time consuming. Gets interesting on occasion.
What really sucks is that I looked for a LONG, long time -sm
before joining DRC - wanted a highly reputable, not-too-big co. that was LOCAL, and that treated its MTs humanely. I'm very happy with DRC & had planned to stay with them permanently.
I think there's about it takes about 2 weeks...
There's a processing time of about 2 weeks I believe, paperwork has to be sent to certain people and equipment has to be ordered and sent out to you. I'm not aware of it being based according to pay period. Just a side note, be sure you have DSL and if you don't, you'll need to order it right away to enable you to start on time.
I like it - takes some getting used to - new drugs, etc.

It's not too bad but it takes some getting used to. My lines were down for about the first
month and then have surpassed what I was doing before. The accuracy is actually pretty good. I would say probably 80% or so. There is some editing of words and stuff but most of what I have found is punctuation and the like.
It takes time but can be done
First find where your templates are kept by clicking on Tools, Options, File Location where it will show you where your templates are stored.
Open your template. Click on Format, Style and then Modify then Format then font. After you modify the font size to what you want, click OK. Now you are back to Modify Style and check apply to template.
And I'm sure that's clear as mud! Good luck!
too much going in and out.....takes up too much time.
nm
Takes you 8 hours to do what? nm
nm
I can't tell you what to do as I have just started and it takes a while to
get to know your account and how things go, so I won't just jump on the bandwagon. However, if Webmedx has not returned your calls or email, why not give it a shot. Its not like you can't change your mind should Webmedx ever get back to you. I have changed jobs 3 or 4 times over the last year trying to find just the right spot that works for me. Time will tell if TT is the place for me or not.
Whatever it takes for family first IMO. (sm)
TT has more work coming on, these are good people who really care about us.
We still have to work some holidays but I saw a memo allowing us to flex our time that day to allow us to enjoy our family. The 2 major holidays Thanksgiving and Christmas you rotate, work one one year, the other the next. But it really is no problem if you can flex it around your family activities.
Good luck to you whichever way you choose.
