1100-1400 lines/day?...sm
Try getting your facts straight before you decide to shoot down a company. Keep on wandering and you may find some unlucky company who would love to have your attitude.

Here is what the recruiter told me
A few weeks ago I was offered a position with the Baltimore office for their "big" oncology account. The recruiter told me they start all transcriptionists at 7.5 cpl but after 90 days you would be moved up to 8 cpl. She also said that they now have a production pay plan that would pay 7.5-8 for the first (I think it was 700 lines); then 8.5 for for 701-1200; 9 for 1201-?; and it would go on up to as high as 9.75 cpl depending on lines produced. I turned them down because I thought that 7.5 or even 8 was low for someone with a lot of experience in oncology. I was very disappointed to say the least...especially after going through talking to them on the phone, then testing, then waiting for them to get back to me (which took forever) to see if I even passed. I thought I hadn't made it through the test and was really down and out...then after all that I turned them down anyway.
The recruiter for KS told me I
Lanier Voicewriter. Haven't heard back from the recruiter lately. She must be busy doing other things, trying to make ends meet.
That is what the recruiter told me.
I talked with 2 MTs that told me they were making 10/5 cpl for night shift. They were hired as new grads straight from Career Step back when they had the Focus on the Future program. I asked the recruiter about it, who confirmed that is what they pay for night shift. I have also seen others on this forum post that that is what they are making. I would be inquiring about why you are not getting the night differential when others are. Sounds like you are getting screwed.
Recruiter told me the don't outsource
And supposedly they are hiring me because they are getting a huge account with 6 hospitals. Any more info on them - I need to let them know tomorrow and don't know what to do. It sounded good, but now I'm worried.
another thing, recruiter told me about this
wonderful account that rarely had an opening because the MTs loved it so much. I had worked on this account when I was at YOG so I knew how horrible it was. After talking to the TL she told me they constantly have openings because the account is so difficult that they can't keep anyone on it. I'd only believe half of what the recruiter tells you. The recruiter is the one who denied the offshoring, the TL was the one who told me they did and also told me they offshored the good stuff.
I was told by recruiter that about 80% were now internet nm

The recruiter for Axolotl told me
nm
ITA. The recruiter told me how lucky I
was that they had an opening on this wonderful account. Said the MTs just loved it and there was rarely an opening (A.V. in CA). I had worked on the account at YOG and it was HORRIBLE! When I talked to the team leader she told me that it was a very difficult account, that they couldn't keep MTs on it. Fortunately for me I already knew how horrible it was and turned them down. I wouldn't work for a company where they lie to you before you even get your foot in the door.
Recruiter told me they do pay for spaces...sm
The black and white line did confuse me a bit though.
I was told by their recruiter that they outsource off-shore.

I was told by recruiter they pay gross line
nm
No but just talked to a recruiter who told me VR jobs pay
Recent info told to me by recruiter...
Requiring minimum 700 lines a day, 5 days a week, and the weeks must be either or Sun-Thu or Tue-Sat. Past workers only had to commit to 2 weekend days a month but new hires must take a weekend day each week.
This seemed to be as low as a person could go for weekly commitment, unless I misunderstood.
S/l Precyse. The recruiter told me how lucky I
was that there was an opening on a particular account because all the MTs just loved the account and there was rarely an opening, it was a great account, yada, yada, yada. They mentioned the name of the account and I had worked on it several years earlier with another company and it was a horrendous account with the absolute worst ESLs I've ever countered and I like doing ESLs usually. I then talked to the team leader and she told me it was an extremely difficult account and that the MTs hated it and they couldn't keep anyone on the account. She accidently let slip too that they offshored and that the best dictation went offshore and the garbage stayed here for the US MTs.
It was fortunate for me that I knew about the account and I turned down the position. I don't know why they coudldn't be up front about it, because no way would I have stayed past day 1 with that account.
No, I am not paid any flat rate and I told that recruiter
I gave my notice, but he continues to ask me. Of course, I have not given my notice and will see how this job plays out. One thing to note is the recruiter claims I have a great account that many would be happy to have. May be he is worried about fabrication.
I spoke with recruiter 3-4 wks ago and was told mixed acute care & clinic, no ops exclusively. Low

Dunno About TN
Hi flmt,
I have applied and tested with Terra Nova in the past. I answer the requests for MTs every time I see their ads. I never, ever get a response from them. It's bothersome because they seem to want people to work for them, yet they have never responded to me. I don't even know if I have passed the tests.
In my opinion, don't waste your time. If you ever do get a response after submitting your resume and/or testing, let me know. Maybe I failed the testing and they just didn't feel like being decent with a response.
Good luck!
Jen
Dunno what happened to your response but...
the person who confirmed your response could have just been HELPFUL AND TACTFUL to the person asking for help instead of getting all high nosed about it like he/she is part of the elite.
i dunno about the lack of social circulation c msg
i know quite a bit of MTs who love to be around other mts trying to throw a power trip with a bit of facial expression like--im right and youre not--kinda thing. thats sad too
I dunno, don't you see the words that you are typing? Can't you see mistakes that way?
I have great transcription times. Instead of 4:1 or 3:1, I'm definitely 2:1 and have one dictator that I can actually type as fast as he can talk, yielding a 1:1. I have easy work (physical therapy), use word Expanders and just look at what I type as I'm typing. I don't re-read, never have, never will but easily hold to 99-100% accuracy. Once in a while, I might put in something like state for stat but honestly, my clients love my work and my clean reports.
Dunno, but their site is qtmedical.com, then hit the Contact Us tab. nm

Dunno.... the powers that be spawned the likes of
I can think of some foreign countries that might harbor server-crashers.
I dunno, another poster on this thread was offered 7 cpl too
XOXO
I would suspect that with the name Global in the title, its probably India...dunno though.

dunno but heard they are some real witches to work for
somebody that was with them before they dropped part time positions.
Only FT and must get 1100 lines for the PP. .sm
Only the above. If you fall below the 1100 minimum for the pay period, you lose out on both PTO and internet reimbursement. I'm nott there any more, but was there 2+ years, first on FT who couldn't quite get up to the 1100 lines (guess why? combination of little/no work at the time as well as lousy 99% ESL account.So then I literally got pushed into PT status, where I had to pay everything and watch everyone else get PTO and their ISP reimbursed but still made lines close to FT but took twice as long. Nice deal, huh??
1400 lpd over 10 days? How easy is that to do with all the ESLs there? nm
b
I don't push like I did years ago - I usually get about 1300-1400 (sm)
If I push, I can get about 1600.
In 2005, they were offering 8 cpl up to 1400 lines a day. Over that,
s
Sorry - yep 1100 per day or 5500 per pay period
nm
1100 lines in 40 hours, must be the -- sm
dictator(s) of our dreams! And this is just for actual transcription, but what part of the 40 hours does the other work fall into, the demographics, emails, look-ups, re-dos, re-listen, twiddling thumbs while doc is asleep or browsing the charts, etc.
ETrans doesn't hit 9 cpl until you're at 1400 lines a day. nm
s
even if you are only doing 1400 lines a day at 8 cents a line that is still $15 an hour...
How many jobs are you going to get outside of the home making $15 an hour, especially in this economy and most parts of the country? That is only 175 lines an hour and most nationals expect at least 150 an hour, so that is not that much of a push. If you do 200 lines an hour, or 1600 lines a day, look at the raise and that is $16 an hour. This is also only making 8 cents a line, which by the time you are making over 1300 lines a day you probably are getting some sort of incentive, at least a lot of companies you do, and that would push this number up even more.
I used to be a graphic designer for many years and to this day pay for a good designer is only $12 to $14 an hour and you have to commute to the job, so how is it not realistic to make this type of money. I do not see where your logic is and if you are making so bad then maybe it is time to re-look at your profession and find something that is more a fit to you and make the money you deserve. I just do not see how making a minimum of $14 an hour is so unrealistic. Geez.
No flyer, but in 2005, they were only paying 8 cpl until you hit 1400 lpd. Any mention of

Do know either question, but I was offered 8 cpl on 1100 lpd with experience. You get 8.5 cpl if U

I feel lucky if I get 1100 lines a day. I was doing sm
at least 1500 a day on DocQscribe.
1100 lines a day which is EASY to meet sm
I am fairly fast, but I got that 1100 on MY VERY FIRST DAY!!!
Lines are easy to get and I have so much work, it is unreal. I can and want to go all day and past it. I still have 4.75 hours to make up this week, but the work is holding at a high level and they are so low stress, I am not tired right now after 9.5 hours today, just want a break for a bit and a hot meal, then back to it.
I can't say enough good things about this place, I just can't.
Not by the line but 1400-1500 radiology reports. 2-1/2 years. nm
nm
When there is a lot of work, do you find it hard to make 1100?
cause I sure do.
8 hrs & 1100 lpd have to occur for FT benes. FT pay 8.5 cpl. People have had trouble with paychecks
/
Pay offered last year was 8 cpl/w on 1100 lpd. Some posters said they lost all their good accts
s
1100 lpd for FT, good sound quality, ExText software, LOTs of ESLs..nm

I don't hesitate to ask. Have been told "yes", and have been told "no." Never been to
:+
I average 1200-1400 lines per day with a national, and am only getting around 600-800 lines per day.
It's been this way since the day before Thanksgiving. I've been doing this for almost 30 years now, and more often than from Thanksgiving until the new year is the slowest time of the year. I have some months where I am swamped with up to 2000 lines per day. I stash that little extra money, and take advantage of a handful of extremely slow days this time of the year to actually cook dinner, decorate for Christmas, or do Christmas shopping. I actually anticipate this slow time every year and have grown to enjoy the breathing time. Any time I have attempted to pick up extra work with another company to supplement these slow times, the minute I get adjusted to the new accounts, etc. I have no time to finish all of my work because my full time job with national gets slammed again. Hang in there if you can, and hopefully your work will pick up significantly around New Years.
