HMMMM
The time it took for you to post this, you could have already dialed them up yourself and the got the answer straight from the horse's mouth!
hmmmm
Would not be my first choice... criminal history / conviction problems.  Think strings back in Sept about their legal issues in newspapers were deleted from this site.   May be a good fit for you, but check it out thoroughly first. 
Did you ever think hmmmm
Did you ever take a test and know good and well you aced it only to have a person call you back after several days to tell you you had failed? I tested only because I had approached them, never called them back, got another job in the meantime (theirs was fulltime and I wanted part which I got) and then today they are telling me didn't pass-- don't believe it with my 30+ years of MTing and told him exactly that. Thanked him for his time, of course. What is to be will be anyway is the way I look at life....
Hmmmm
I sure don't recall it taking that long. I was hired a little over a year ago. I didn't go through any testing process at all... Just an interview. I have been totally satisfied and happy with them so far. Good luck!
hmmmm...

Well, it doesn't sound much different than my situation. I have 3 accounts, was hired to do OPs specifically, I also do all cardiology diagnostic types as well, and willing to help out on other work types occasionally. I really don't think it is a matter of that work type running out.


I think I will have to inquire, just doesn't add up. Thanks for the advice.


Hmmmm
Why do I feel like somebody is snooping in my mailbox all of a sudden? Exactly how do you know that's not me? I do over 20,000 lines a pay period at least, sometimes more, so as you can see the highest pay of the new incentive scale is a definite increase, at least for me.
hmmmm
Well one would hope that there's enough work to go around. If that's the case then making sure clients get their reports in a timely manner is a good thing and makes our TAT's look good as well. The idea that they'll take just anyone who'll walk in thru the door over there is a good example of how little thought the MT company heads put into this kind of work. Makes one feel special doesn't it {sarcasm implied}.
Hmmmm
and that is exactly when a great company begins to fail.  Have to start hiring more micro managers, transcription leads, etc.  Too big too fast, and this is exactly what this sounds like to me, AND I have been with companies like this before, it is NOT GOOD.  You end up being a number, not a name.  So many companies fail when they grow too fast, not just transcription.  Number one no-no.  Last year the fight on who to work for was between Keystrokes and Transtech.  As of now, they are both getting negative reviews, big ones....stick with a mom and pop co. who treat you right, KNOW YOUR NAME, you are not just a number.  You will make plenty of money for those bills, guarantee it! 
Hmmmm...

I applied for a position at Keystrokes, was contacted by the CEO saying my test scores were excellent, was offered a job and sent paperwork to complete, sent back my paperwork with all my personal info and here it is 2 days later and I have not heard back from the recruiter after sending an email regarding whether or not she received my paperwork.  Hmmmm....

....
Hmmmm

I'm not too sure what to think of it either.  I've only been with DVHP for two months.  So far I'm enjoying it.  I do know that Transcend does the transcription for one of the hospitals near me (docs I have transcribed before).  I will be calling in for the conference call Sunday (missed Friday's because I was out Christmas shopping).  I would like it if I kept the same accounts I'm on now, since I'm pretty used to their formats, doctors, etc.  Then again, it would be nice to be added to that local hospital as well, since I am very familiar with the doctors and area.


I've heard good and bad things about Transcend, but I've heard the same about many other MTSOs as well.  We will just have to see.  When is this merger supposed to take place?


No hmmmm about it
if you live near East LA. It's a very common term there, unfortunately. I used to transcribe psychiatry and we had a lot of rehab reports with guys who were jonesing for their next fix.
Hmmmm

Thanks for the info ...no worries about me coming on board then.


Seemed a little too good to be true at first, then the flags started popping up.


Best wishes!


IN RESPONSE MS. HMMMM....
you aren't to bright are you?
Hmmmm... I dont think so
xx
hmmmm - can anyone say antitrust?

Just wondering here, may have to wiki that one.  How large would they have to be to constitute a monopoly in the industry? 


I worked, ever so briefly, for focus and it was a disaster.  Start, middle, finish.  It was, I suppose, a great place to get my feet wet, and if they had followed through on their promises as they said they would, I would probably still be there.  I had a real problem, though, with the whole smile and nod policy with the support staff.  You know, they don't understand a word/text message we say and so they smile and nod? 


Anyhoo, there is my two cents.

hmmmm....34 years and going ....
working exclusively at home for the last 9 years has revived my love for the work, as well as changing over to being an SE vs employee in the last few years. I love the freedom from a rigid schedule. I have always enjoyed medical knowledge, feel a sense of satisfaction from deciphering the difficult dictators and making a sensible, readable accurate report out of mumbojumbo. Course I love sailing through the easier ones in between. I guess I still find it challenging on some levels too. Maybe if you find it too hard to do 'one more report' sometimes, then it may help to work a bit less, take more vacation time, to try a new account, new hours, new company or change up something...get a massage, get refreshed!!
Hmmmm, that should be search box, DUH

Hmmmm - that's interesting
I read here that some hospital is docking the pay of their in-house MTs because they can't edit as fast as escription says they should be able to. Now, who to believe?
Hmmmm, I wonder who transcribes these reports.

Hmmmm.... Sounds like you're better off without them anyway!
nm
Glued to my seat???? hmmmm

Hmmmm ... this is a good question ... sm
and one I'd also like the answer to! ...
Hmmmm..... VEDDY interesting!

sounds like slander...hmmmm
;)
Hmmmm has no right to voice things like that...sm
Every poster has the right to post her/his opinion on this board, in a respectfully manner, and let the dicussions begin and go on!
Nobody has the right to tell anybody to 'look for another job or profession' or 'to shut up'.
Hmmmm. Did you just suggest that people not come to MTStars?
You are a total mess, and how anyone could take anything you say seriously is beyond me.

You have a real problem! Please seek help!
Geez.. you must work where I have been working..hmmmm
Sounds familiar
Reading about how other country handled this, hmmmm
just on Entertainment Tonight they were telling about some pretty raunchy things, for example saying body found in net hose and other items that maybe should be left alone. It is not just other country giving out information, better look at our country also. Some of the weekly tabloids get things like this and run with it.
I've got a pretty nasty ESL account with them and I don't get 10 cpl. Hmmmm....nm

Hmmmm..I was afraid of that. I guess I saw that coming. Everyone said it'd change with the merger
and the days of a gift card would be gone. Oh well, it kind of goes along with everything else, different way to get shorted on line counts too. I guess ...This is what they call cutbacks.  Tis' the season
Maybe MQ is over hiring now in preparation for something. Must be some reason they keep hiring when
some people have not work.
Hiring
Don't know anything about escribe, but my company, Cy med, hiring.
Hiring
Anyone know of TM Transcription in Oregon?
Hiring
Since I have been hiring for Keystrokes, I have ALWAYS followed thru with providing the proper paperwork to the office, and the AA gets the paperwork out the same day within hours of when I submit the new hire information, and then when the signed paperwork is not received usually we give someone about 72 hours, which on many occasions, people do not fax the paperwork back to the office, the AA in turns either sends out a FU e-mail asking where the paperwork is and/or I will call and send out an e-mail if there is an issue. I HAVE NEVER let anyone SLIP thru the Cracks with Keystrokes after I have offered them a position. Please get your facts straight before you post on here and use my name!

I have a note on the resume the date of hire, and the date the e-mail was sent to the office, and also have a new hire folder, where I put the e-mail that the office sends to me that the paperwork has been returned and faxed back, to the office. Keystrokes does FU on hiring of all new hires, so who ever is posting that needs to contact me and allow me to find out what the problem is so I can find a solution.
Are they hiring? (nm)

Are they hiring?
They said they passed me up because someone else wanted a full-time position, and I only wanted a part-time position. Then I had to contact them, which took 3 weeks to get a response. If I did well on the test and they need help, then why not hire me? What a waste of my time.
They are ALWAYS hiring because
All of the smart MTs leave and only the extreme desperate stay. They do SUK.
as far as I know they are still hiring
I don't know about if it is specifically for ortho or not though.
They are always hiring...
and just as hard to get ahold of when you are working there.  lol.  Try e-mailing the recruiter.  Thats your best bet. 
I just saw an ad where they are hiring for
someone to go overseas to train/teach classes. Wondering what's up with that. If it's true, kind of bold of them to advertise on an MT job site to promote taking American jobs away. Guess it all comes down to the almighty buck and how these companies continue to screw US MTs over.
are they still hiring for Onc MT?

Hi SM!


I have more than 2 yrs experience transcribing onc reports.  I would like to ask if they are still hiring as far doing oncology transcription? What is their website?  Can I have their email address?  THank you


Hiring
I'm wondering too...my QA is consistently over 99%, I rarely leave blanks and have 12+ years experience.
Are they hiring?
I am looking for a good IC job. Do you know if Sten-Tel is hiring for IC? Thank you so much!!
i think they are not hiring
thank you, but I went to GIMT website and it seems they are not hiring right now.  There wasn't any info where to mail the resume.
Are they currently hiring?
What is their website?  Thanks!
I think they are always hiring

Who's Hiring for ONC?

Does anyone have any experience with any of the companies hiring for ONC now?  Positive experience with the companies and the accounts, or negative? Which companies would you recommend for ONC?  TIA.


Yep, they are still hiring

I cannot understand why they do not understand this.  I hope you have another job.  One problem they have...on one account, they had overseas MTs doing the typing, they allowed these people to go off of QA...next couple of weeks, the account was gone.  Nobody said it was gone, but there was never any work on the account and still isn't any. Zip activity.


Who, in their right mind, would allow overseas MTs to submit work directly to a facility?


hiring
I just e-mailed you. Thank you for information.
Do you know if they are hiring ICs? TIA.

are they hiring right now ? -
Applied a week ago, waiting to hear from them. Thanks. Not sure if they are hiring right now or not.
