as soon as the first report has downloaded.  Once I download I disconnect, do my work, then connect and send my completed work.   I usually start my download in the morning then go take my shower, feed all the animals, grab myself something to drink and I'm ready to go.   Once the work is downloaded what type of connection you have doesn't matter.  

Sure it is safe to post your resume on the net, provided it is a reputable site.  I would not just post it anywhere, but post it on the job boards here and other reputable sites.   Most sites have some type of safeguards in place so that you have to have registered with the site and/or paid a usage fee to view information like addresses and phone numbers, so that not just anyone can view the information. 

Another option may be an account that has C-phone or similar accounts, where you aren't downloading, but dialing directly into the system.

I work for Transolutions, and the do use dial-up and I believe they do PT also.  I am FT, so I am not sure about PT.  Also, Spheris also uses dial-up and has PT and also supplies all the equipment you need.

Last I knew they paid for your second phone line.

Does anyone still work using a dial-up connection?  We are facing a move in a couple of weeks and it has come to my attention that I may not be able to get high-speed in our new home.  My only options may be dial-up or satellite through Wild Blue.  Are their companies out there that are still using dial-up?  I really love the company I am working for as an employee right now but I would go back to IC if I had to.  Thanks for your help!

and willing to answer a couple of questions, could you e-mail me?? thanks!

If you have DSL or cable, you'll be okay at KS.  If you only have access to dial-up, they have almost no accounts.  I know most people have DSL/cable, but there are still a few of us that can't get it.  I've been with KS for about 6 months and will now have to look for another job because of this.

I only have dial up and there are no plans to add DSL in the area that I live in for at least another year possibly two.  Satellite is out of the question due to too many trees around. I live in the woods and believe me its hard to get a clear view on the satellite dish we have now. 

If anyone knows of a company that still uses dial up please let me know. 

Thanks

It's getting harder to find places who will work with dialup or else it's so slow you can't make it worthwhile.

Please give me some companies that I can do QA or edit for?  thanks, I don't have broadband right now. 

I work for MQ and have done so for almost 7 years now w/o any of the problems that others so often complain about here.  I think it depends on the office you get.  A close friend also worked for them and the office she had was horrible.  Anyway, they accept dial-up, I believe Medware does, but not positive, and Spheris too. 

A suggestion would be to call the local phone company wherever it is you are moving to and ask them if they have plans to get DSL in that area.  I called ours recently and was told they plan to extend out and have DSL available to at least 80% of their customers by the end of this year.  So, you may not be w/o it for all that long. HTH.  Good luck.

Need info on Transolutions and any companies that allow dial-up, 19 years experience, looking for new job.  Does Transolutions dock pay for mistakes?
