In Reply to: Funny you ask this; I have applied for both of - justme
but somehow with over 16 years of experience, I blew the test. I was soooo disappoionted and yet pretty stunned. I am by no means perfect but I haven't flunked a test in years. I expected it in my early years but not this far down the road. I was so confident and they will not tell you which part you did not pass and why so it really just blew my mind. I must have been in shock for like two hours after I got the email. Oh well, someone will want me....hopefully. I was thinking about OSi but I don't think I could take another rejection if I never heard back.

I heard back immediately
I got a one sentence email saying I didn't have enough experience. Must be pretty difficult work. I have been typing all work types for 19 years, especially psych and radiology..the two on the list. I have also done ESL in every job I have ever been employed. Oh well, asked her to keep my name in the barrell!
I heard Back Immediately - Posted by Blossom
I am not at all surprised to hear this, as this has also happened to me. I was given some insight into this by an HR representative for one of the major companies...Many of the experienced MT/QA's do not view the AAMT-BOS as an absolute bible. This was meant as a guideline, but many companies embrace as if it is written gospel. Apparently, the most of experienced QA/MT's remember the times when we were actually paid, and if the lack of work was due to their fault, we were paid for downtime. I guess us old-timers have to just lay down and die because we are too old to retrain in another field.
Phoenix Medcom- Another apply a few months back, ask to take a test and never heard back??
I applied a month or two ago, received an email from someone asking if I would take a test and said she was getting ready to go on vacation for a week, so I hurried and immediately and told her I'd love to take the test. I never heard back. I waiting thinking she went on vacation and would contact me when she got back to do the test but nothing...very strange..Just wondered if this happened to anyone else.

Is this company on Long Island? I checked out their website and even tried calling once. Were you successful in contacting them? All i know is that the company is owned by some doctors.
I e-mailed them and responded back almost immediately, offered low pay. 45 minute interview. 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.
took their test and waited for eight months to hear back from then sm
by that time I had two different jobs. No the eight months is NOT A TYPO

Transform - Any1 hear back from them yet on their most recent ad?
I would LOVE to work for this company!
I did finally hear back and did okay but I think I am done testing until I talk with someone about
what they are looking for. I cant get the foot pedal to work with the voice so it takes a lot of time to go back over and over the dictation.
I hear that Amphion is back on mandatory overtime again, so
they must have plenty of work if you can stand tons of emails. For IC status, Advanced Transcription out of Oregon also seems to have plenty of work.
Anyone apply to recent CardioScribes ad and hear anything back? nm

Never Heard Back
I sent a resume to Acetera, got a call back from a recruiter, who offered me a job and I accepted. They were supposed to get back to me regarding software, training, etc. and nothing at all.
Has anyone ever heard back from them? (sm)
Test is very difficult because of exceptionally poor audio quality. Try the 7-day Bytescribe free trial as ExpressScribe isn't good enough for these files.
I already heard back and was sent...sm
contract and such. I was just wondering if anyone knew anything good/bad about them.
Here is what I do and have always heard back.
I send in resume and will get response to please take their test and return it to them. Instead, I reply back that I would be more than happy to test but do not want to waste their valuable time grading my test if it is going to turn out we are not a good fit for each other and would they mind answering a few questions first. I then ask what is pay, is it hourly or cpl and if cpl how is line calculated. I ask if they have direct deposit and when would I get first check. I don't ask a bunch of questions, just the ones that to me will determine first and foremost if this is a company I am interested in. Have never not gotten answers to my questions and when I do get answers, if I am not interested, I send email thanking them for taking the time to answer but I don't think their company is what I am looking for and I am sure they will have no problem filling the position (even if I think there is no way in hell anyone in their right mind would work for them, lol.)
i heard back....
I heard back but only to ask me for my resume and that was on Thursday. I have not heard back from them since.
With me, it was only a day before I heard back from them - SM
That was last February, though, and they have grown a lot and have gotten much busier since then. I don't think it would hurt at all to give them a call just to sort of touch base with them.
Heard back one day after
I applied via phone call.
I also heard back within a day or two... sm
It never hurts to contact them and verify they got your information. Everyone I've dealt with there is very nice and never seemed bothered by or rude because of an inquiry. Good luck!
After testing for First Choice, can anyone tell me how long it takes to hear back? nm

Has anybody heard back from Oracle? sm
I accepted a position with Oracle about a week ago and faxed my paperwork to them but haven't heard back. They said they would be contacting me. Has anyone recently accepted a position with Oracle and heard back from them?
Thanks
I haven't heard back from them yet. (sm)
Does it seem to take a long time to hear back from them? I went to the website, filled that info. out and the test last week. Do they pay more than 9 cpl?
Have any of you heard back from PMSI? I'm also having a bit of a

If you haven't heard back from her she will
contact you. She is a sweetheart. She's just really busy right now. Try giving her another call or email. I am also employed by Transcribe it Quick.
I heard back the next day. I wouldn't really
bother with them. I thought that maybe they represented companies that might not post to the job boards and who might offer better than most jobs - like a headhunter. After their testing they put me in touch with a company that regularly posts on the job boards and who currently have an ad running. I had recently turned down an offer with this same company. There was no difference in pay in what I was offered going through TM than I did going directly through the company. TM said they could sometimes negotiate a higher rate, but it didn't happen.
I think the company is only 2 people and I don't think it is a FT job for either one of them - at least that is the impression I got. Since they have a current ad maybe they have been swamped with resumes.
After you test with TM you still have to test again and if you don't get more $ you're better off applying to companies yourself and at least you won't have to go through an additional round of testing and interviews.
I don't know how long this post will last as in the past any post that doesn't portray them in a positive fashion gets deleted.
I applied and heard back (sm)
They responded almost instantly with an e-mail that said to send a Yahoo IM (instant message) to their address. I e-mailed back that I did not have an IM account, and could we just discuss via e-mail, and then I never heard anything again. Really makes me wonder how legit they are...
I did the same questionnaire and never heard back either. nm
nm
I applied there and just heard back
I don't know a whole lot because I am waiting to start but pay is 9 cpl (even though the ads say 9-10) and they use ChartScript. You also must be incorporated because they are only hiring for contract work at this time. No set schedule. Hope this helps a little.
Hi, heard back same day....this was for radiology,right?......nm
nm
I heard back from them the day I sent my resume in. sm
I have not received my paperwork yet, but will be starting to work for them on a part-time basis. The work is all cardio -- mostly clinic notes, correspondence, echos, etc. They seem to be a good company, but I guess they all do when they are hiring you. We'll see .........
I sent a resume to them but never heard back.
nm
I heard back within 3 or 4 days...
and other than low pay, it is indeed a great place to work! They do give quarterly bonuses which helps a bit to cushion the 7 cpl (for clinic work). Good luck.
