Has anyone gotten a job from any company not posting regularly from their resume in the resume

Try posting on the MDI forum and
and ideas from the MDI MTs who post there. 
Try posting your resume
I was contacted through this site. I too like OP reports. I was contacted by a small company to transcribe for a surgery center. Mon thru Fri, no weekends, same account every day. It was a dream come true!!
Posting Resume
For people who have posted their resumes, what was your experience and how was the response. Thanks.
Resume posting
I placed a resume and heard from quite a few people, but their responses came very quickly after posting.
Resume posting
P.S. The companies that respond to your resume are usually ones that do not post ads in MT Jobs. I say go for it!! What do you have to lose!
Posting my resume on job board
TIA
Has anybody gotten hired from a contact directly from posting your resume .. sm
Just wondering if posting my resume on here is a wise idea and what kind of success other MTs have experienced with posting theirs on these types of sites, versus sending your resume to a company in response to their ad.
Try posting your resume on Career Builders. You'll
space, accounting, all kinda stuff. Even if you specify what type of work and where you want it, especially with the locality option, you get all kinds of goofy stuff, but some are pertinent. I got so many I had to unsubcribe.
The problem with this forum is that it is a forum...
meant for MTs who want to share information, get answers, and sometimes just vent about a problem. The post about cherrypicking began with the MTs problem of having to transcribe reports that were obviously skipped over by her fellow MTs. The response was quit being a cherrypicking busybody and do your job.
Regardless of how you view cherrypicking, how is that response helpful in the least? If you do not have anything productive to add to a thread, then just stay out of it. That was completely inflammatory and characteristic of what a troll would do.
Nobody wants to hear just deal with it when they need a solution to a problem. They also don't want to hear about how perfect other MTs and if they were just like them, it would not be an issue.
In your own words, nobody likes it but some choose not to worry about it. Then don't respond to the thread. Don't be pompous. Don't make it sound like you are so superior because you don't care if you get all the worst dictators. Maybe give a positive response on how cherrypicking is good and should be appreciated.
That is the problem with this forum...the people who come here to be completely unhelpful in the guise of being a perfect MT.
How long does it take TransHealth to get back to someone when you send a resume? I sent a resume

the posting is the exact same posting as you read on the
job seekers board. It is under state boards
they are on the FORUM, as I said
I guess you need to look harder. Just because you dont see them does not mean they arent there.
Not really, but I would not put it on this forum without
xxx
forum
The company website then the MLS forum. Not sure if it extends to the MDI-FL side or not.
new forum
As unscrupulous as they are at this company - please verify that you are not the current owners, or tech support. I know they are crafty enough to set up something like this to get the scoop on names of those speaking about them. They are in a jam, everybody is lying about us mode and are inane enough to think that if one person says something about them that they can confirm who the players are they can get them for slander. Of course slander or defamation of character is something that someone says that they know to be false.....have not heard a thing that cannot be proven - bad checks, no pay, etc.
I would love to join this forum, but confirming who I am is not giving me much relief that you are not them, and that they cannot join - I mean who knows more about their crap then they do?
Also how long before you respond to a sign up?
Thank you - that is what this forum is for!

MQ forum
Ahhh, wish you could too! One thing I can say,it is never boring. :)
New Forum
Not a bad idea. It's about time we turn the tables and take control of the industry. After all, they cannot serve clients without qualified MTs, and we should have a right to all the information we can acquire about them without blindly giving out our personal information. OMG, one company even wants the SS # in order to apply. I like your idea.
New forum
I ran across a fairly new board that you might be interested in at FOSTonline.com - maybe we could start one over there?
but, on MQ forum the other day
somone posted they were editing reports from india, the fourth time around as a matter of fact, and if the US MT submits too many in for QA they were on performance management.
MDI forum
So, are you saying that people loyal to MDI wouldn't be welcome? Do you just want a forum for people wanting to leave or for all MDI MTs? You could set up something on Yahoo groups and people could set up anonymous Yahoo emails to come in and I think the group administrator would have to allow or not allow people to join. Just wondering what kind of group specifically you want to start.
I don't think you have enough MTs to warrant your own forum.
nnnnn

pretty soon KS will need their own forum like MQ

bullies on this forum....they are all over the....sm
boards lately. What gives? Can't anyone on these boards treat anyone with any amount of respect? It's no wonder most of the friendly posters aren't seen here anymore.
We almost need a Heartland forum on here like MQ! nm

Do you mean the forum on the portal? nm

Look on their very own forum page and see for yourself!
I guess it is all in how you look at it. Everything you see on that page is neg, very little positive. They are very strict about keep to your appointed scheduled. No deviation incidentals like (Thunder and lightening, tornadoes, etc.). They expect you to make it up. Working in a pool from across the country. Rarely in a primary account for more then a few jobs every shift. Pay rate might be okay when compared to across the board with other companies, but what you have to put up doesn't make up for that. Then, there is whole sale of the company thing, won't go there. I personally do not want to work for a company that will eventually go completely to Indian workers, mabe not this week, but in the long run it will.
I think you would get a lot of people telling you to run as fast as you can. Read the board for yourself and make your own informed decision.
Good Luck in your search. 
Transtech forum
What is transtech's forum site address? Also, does VR work at Transtech usually pay better than transcribing? I'm thinking of training for that.
I propose a new forum (sm)
In thinking about all the comments made about us making a positive change for this profession, I thought of one suggestion. What if we ask for a new forum on this board called Recruiting, to actually help those of us who are looking for jobs. We can post questions, and the recruiters of various companies who post jobs on the job boards can frequent this board and give us true and honest answers to those questions. This way, we would have direct access to finding out the facts, rather than just relying on what sometimes ends up just being Run away fast type of answers posted by disgruntled MTs. They can answer questions about platforms, hiring processes, etc. If companies have nothing to hide, then they shouldn't shy away from such discussions. What do you all think?
Go to the Medquist forum. nm
Sometimes this forum is really embarrassing. SM
Irritated (and others), FYI, I don't get those messages.
And as MT pointed out so correctly, checking demographics is part of what we are paid to do, but if I ever felt I was being cheated I'd quit and look for work worthy of me elsewhere. Go for it!
Read around the forum first...
See some comments regarding Focus. There are many reasons to think long and hard before asking questions about that company.
What's the the point of a forum if one
can get away with unethical behavior.
I disagree also that 'anything' can be posted on this forum. Why are then so many comments deleted right away? And people banned to post on this forum?
Keystrokes Forum
Is there a forum or board for Keystrokes employees? Just wondering. I am starting in a few days.
Thanks.
Read the Transcend forum
and see what they did to a great group of people. This company is going down the tubes fast. I don't want to work for a company like this any more, and I'm spending the day sending out resumes.
I just looked at Transcend's forum,
and I do not see these happy people who posted 2 messages today about how happy they are? Are you sure you work for the same Transcend I am refering to? I do not see all those posts you are referring to. I am looking for them now and do not see them--where are they??!!
I saw your post on the forum board.
And to you and anyone else who read it, did you go back and try to read it again, only to find that it was GONE? Um... yeah.
Every single thing you have said is true. Every word of it.
Time to jump ship or drown.
Forum helped with my decision about OSI
OSI didn't tell me they outsource jobs to India in their job offer, and I refuse to work for a company that does this.
Thanks to this forum, I learned about this and chose to go with a company that does not outsource. I ignore some of the inane comments, but to do nothing but praise a company here is unrealistic. I read all the proof I needed to help me make a decision.
Why would it be so difficult to simply remove crazy things like, "Oh, you are nuts if you work for them," and leave comments such as, "I have had no work on this account for one week," and she soon learned on this forum that it was because the jobs were sent to India. I don't know why you believe it is necessary to remove the entire string.
Thank you.
This forum is to network with fellow MTs and to ask
questions. Many times, MTs have already searched references and will ask questions here and that is alright. And, while people should attempt to look to their own references first, sometimes a question can be answered quickly and that's ok, too. Policing of who should do what, when, and where is not really necessary on this site other than by MTStars moderating team.
But, NOT on a casual discussion forum. I have said this a
thousand times. THE GRAMMAR POLICE IS NOT NECESSARY. This is supposed to be a place where MTs can let their hair down. Afterall, they are not getting paid to post, so if it's not perfect, so what?
Daphne, I emailed you privately.
There is a huge forum on page 2
on this company. It does not seem good at all. Many people are leaving.
Is there a TransTech message forum once you
nm
Then what kinds of questions should we ask on this forum?
?
Yes, TT deserves their own forum if not the whole page
nm
Ethics? On an anonymous forum? (sm)
It's too much to hope for wanting people to be ethical on an anonymous forum. Just take everything you read with a grain of salt and post what you know to be the truth whenever you see flagrant bull being posted by unscrupulous people. Unfortunately, that's about all you can do. People do unethical stuff all the time in business. Sad but true.
It's common forum language...
It means: I totally agree.
