Every day, hand typed, sent to the supervisor, who then passes it onto the MT.

Of course, many of the errors are seen time and time again because the MTs either:

A) don't read the feedback 

B) don't care

C) both of the above

I have heard that companies pay the same whether it is VR or typing as well and I honestly think we should all just REFUSE to do it.  If nobody does it, what choice would they have?  They could of course recruit fresh newbies with no experience, but they would see quickly an MT needs good experience to correct and fix all of that junk that gets printed on there.

work to do.  They'll tell you it's because you won't do VR, plenty of work there.

I've been presented with a no-compete 2 times.  Both times when I questioned the employers for more specifics, the info I received from them went contrary to what the clause actually stated.  (I think they had just copied it from somewhere.)  I told them if they had a presence on the Internet, then their market was the entire world and that if I signed that contract as stated, it would mean I could not work for anyone in the world as a Transcriptionist for a year and there was no way I was going to sign that.  Both times the employers they said they did not realize this.  They just didn't want anyone stealing their clients. 

I refused to sign each one until I personally rewrote that clause stating specifically that I would not pursue any of their current clients, especially the accounts I was on, for a year after leaving their employ and that if I pursued someone but did not realize that entity was their client, I would not be held responsible (since I was not privy to their client base).  That was it.  Nothing more.  They were more than glad to comply and said they were glad I told them this and would amend that contract for future employees, as neither one of them wanted to prevent anyone from working.

I'd consider possible court costs if you take the severance and pursue work.  They might not win if it went that far but you'd still be at chance for possible hefty fees just to get the case dismissed and end up with less money and more hassle.  Your lawyer should be able to give you a figure on this.

Any feedback on OSi Transcription Services?  I'm looking to get my foot in the door with a good company to work for.

Thanks,

Gina

How do you like working on the Emdat platform?  Do you find it to be productive? 

TiA!

I'll wait and see what happens and maybe contact the office later this week.  Overall, it sounds like a good company to work for.

I thank all of you for talking about your experiences with companies.  I have to revise my look before you leap into look before, during, and after you leap.  All your comments help a job seeker to be aware of questions to ask.  Sometimes knowing that you do NOT know something is far more valuable than knowing something.  I am grateful you all took the time to respond to me y muchos gracias por su ayuda.
