I was going to apply there, but I will only work for companies that only use United States employees.
Thank you for the information.

disappointed
It didn't take me long to see through the smoke and mirrors. I do believe their managers sincerely care but their hands are tied in many respects.
I wish you the best in your tough decision. Luckily for me it was not a difficult one.
Very disappointed
Had hoped of all the Nationals, this one had the integrity they purport to even know the definition thereof. Bait and switch for sure. Horribe QA, horrible communication, lack of integrity ... course, that seems to be the deal with most of these companies ... so whatever works for one may not work for another. Where are reputable, honest, decent companies? P.S. Everyone I started with @ Transolutions left, including those with over 20 yrs experience. Was very disappointed in their lack of professionalism and lack of organization.
very disappointed
I agree with everything you said and then some. The only thing holding me is I need insurance and most places make you wait 90 days. I've been an Editor for years and years and I've never seen the cluster that is the set up with these people.
I am just disappointed
.
Disappointed
Well I work for Transcend and I am very disappointed in the number of Indian transcriptionists. I'm near retirement age, love the account I work on and make halfway decent money so I won't be going anywhere at least for now but this sure changes my opinion of the company. How sad.
No I am not disappointed at all
I work for MDI and I get acknowledged every two weeks. It is called a paycheck. I am a professional and do not expect any kind of special weeks, rewards, or other things. In fact, I think MT Week is juvenile and silly. I really think (and no, I am not an MTSO) we should be thankful in this economy that we have jobs and not always have our hands out for gimme, gimme, gimme.
No, not disappointed
This is the sum total of what anyone knows about the poster who touched off all these comments. She wrote:
''Just when I get my creditors settled into dates I pay my bills, I will have to revert back to having to go to the payday loan for money. Twice a month is too long between paydays.''
Some of us have pointed out that with four months to get ready for this change in payroll method, a reasonably mature and disciplined individual ought to be able to prepare for and adjust to this change. Others have suggested that we cannot possibly know what horrible circumstances (caring for a terminally ill relative was one possibility) getting paid every other week solves that being paid twice a month will not.
The writer will have to ''revert'' to getting high-interest, short-term loans from payday lenders. She has apparently gone this route before and then failed to take measures to see that she does not need to ever again. And if she feels she must borrow money this way, it has to be the fault of somebody else (MDI/Transcend.) Nope, nobody has convinced me yet that this is not an immature and blame-shifting person with poor money management skills.
Next?
Disappointed, but don't know what the deal is
I had an interview set up today by Amphion at 9:00 a.m. - no call. Very strange - she called me Monday morning and asked for my schedule this week to set up an interview - I told her anytime, any day except Friday - she said Wednesday at 9:00 EST. OK, now it's 9:56 and still no call. I'm so disappointed - she said my testing was awesome, etc. - maybe I'll give them a call later and see what happened? Don't know.
what article?.....and why would I be disappointed?
nm
Sad, but true. Definitely disappointed in Transcend. n/m
nm
thumbs up for WMX here too...not disappointed (no message)
xx
I left MQ and went to Keystrokes...so far I am not disappointed..(sm)
I haven't run out of work and I love the account I'm on. I think if my account did slow down there are plenty of others that are coming on board that I could be cross trained on. So far..so good!
Good Luck. You won't be disappointed! (nm)

I am with you. Left a while back. Very disappointed.
nm
Oracle...nothing. Kinda disappointed.
I thought they liked us?
Do not believe that article about Spheris. You'll be disappointed.
nm
Yes, I would have loved the job with Axolotl. I was very disappointed that I did not pass it.
I am never one to make excuses, but I honestly feel that the sound quality on my end must not have been very good as I did not hear some of the things that were in the report. I did feel it was easy also. So, it's definitely my fault for whatever went wrong.
I am disappointed too, but then again, the new operations manager used to work sm
at Medquist, so obviously outsourcing would not be something unfamiliar to him. I have worked with them for over a year, and I truly believed the family thing that was pushed, but it does not have that feeling anymore. I need to talk to Tonya, but my gut feeling is to walk away, just scrape it off like something bad on my shoe and move on.
I'm sure you can find something else. The great thing about this industry is you can always find another job. It may not be ideal and exactly what you want at the time, but something to get by until the right one comes along.
Good luck! 
APPLY ...
1) Explain what you need in schedule; I'm sure you'll get it.
2) IF it is brought up, explain. I'm sure you'll be fine with that!
why don't YOU apply with OSI?
nm
Please don't apply because ...sm
you can't even spell why ruin a good thing for the rest of us? As far as ads being posted well duh - the company is growing with large accounts being added continuously. Nothing wrong with new business!!!
I would apply for another job
One that gets good comments AND takes out taxes :-)
BTW, that's what I did and start the first of the year, couldn't be happier!
Don't apply there then, what can I tell you.
xx
Again if that is so, why would you need to apply at DSG?
You come on here knocking them down for not responding to your holey (misspelled on purpose) self.
Why do I need to apply? No, I don't need
for any amount of money.
Please - where did you apply?
Please, where did you apply? Yes, I do have a letter of recommendation from her. I've got 3 kids to support on my own, and I feel so discouraged.
How do I apply?
Do they have a website? Thanks!
MW MTS, apply to
TransTech..they are growing and wonderful to work for, and do not outsource to India.
Does that apply to ICs too?
nm
Thanks! I will apply and see what happens. NM
Did you apply for the
prn ad?
Apply at TT
with TT112
I always look, never apply.
But there are still a lot of hits and I imagine a lot of serious lookers from the posts here.
So how do you apply at MDI?
I visited their website but saw no place to apply. How do I go about doing this?
Did anyone apply for the job (sm)
Did anyone apply for the job that was on the job seeker's board with CLK transcription, the nonmedical transcriptionist? If so, just wondering if anyone has heard back from them. I sent my resume in, but have not heard anything yet.
thanks in advance!
Where did you apply? sm
Do you just send cover letter/resume through contact information. There is no actual place to apply at on the web site. Thanks!
How do you apply?
How do you apply to MDI-MD? I didn't see a link on their site.
All you can do is apply and see what happens!!!
nm
Why not apply for both and see what happens?
How to apply at MDI-MD
Can anyone tell me how I go about submitting an application/resume with MDI-MD? They don't seem to have a link on their website, unless I have the wrong one! Thanks very much.
Would anyone apply here? sm
Just out of curiousity, how many of you on this board right now would apply for this job? The pay is less than minimum wage, they supply no equipment and looks like you may as well make yourself available 7 days a week. I am serious here, is anyone that is looking going to apply here?
We have another position open. This is an IC position transcribing for a few acute care hospitals, as well as a few specialty clinics. The position is part-time, requring M-F (evenings only) and Sat and Sun (hours flexible).
All candidates must posess at least 2 years of acute care experience (not counting schooling).
Other requirements are as follows:
High speed internet connection.
Universal foot pedal.
Windows 2000 or XP (NO Vista).
Microsoft Word 2000 or greater (no Word Pad).
MT U.S. based.
MT easily reached by phone or email.
We area reliable company that offers direct deposit. Pay starts at .07 cents per 65 character line including spaces. Raise will be given when MT is on their own needing minimal QA.
I think I will apply
I have not had steady work since Thanksgiving and it sounds like they have work, think I will apply. I hope they have employee positions. Kim.
Ever apply for a job and get a
ticket number back? I guess they will call when they get to my ticket number. That doesn't sound like a shortage of MTs to me.
All you can do is ask when you apply.
x
That could apply to just about anyone,
I feel the same way. If you want me to spend hours proof-reading and looking up the addresses of obscure doctors in the Middle-of-Nowhere, USA, then give that 3 cpl you're paying the so-called 'Editors' (and I use the term extremely loosely!), and give it to ME. Then I'll do all that demographic detail crap.
No, I was going to apply and I know last sm
week people were saying it might be bad? Just wondering before I test, that's all. I can't read it because I don't work there.
what you are saying does not apply in these
terrible times. How can you say, 'if you don't like it in 1 company, quit and look for a better company. They are all equal, more or less and jobs are scarce.
It is not proven yet that using the shortcuts brings the speed up. Not for everybody, some people are just 'mouse people' and prefer to continue to work with the mouse. Using the shortcuts is optional and pitting a lot of stress on only 3-4 fingers hitting constantly the Ctrl- and Alt- button in combination with others.
Also, the poster who said that editing isn't even editing anymore, meant, and she is right, that editing has often gone so bad that it is often better to delete the whole document and type it up anew. And this for the VR rate that is 50% of the straight rate.
I don't think I can apply though
cuz I don't have a the foot PEDDLE they require in the ad;-) Good gravy, they should have QA for their ads. Guess recruiters don't have to understand the industry at all anymore. But bet they get paid more than MTs at this CPL.
There is a box that says Apply Now -
That's where I always click, and it brings up another page where you copy and paste your resume. It seems to work for me. I haven't gotten a good job yet, but at least I think I'm applying right! :)
How To Apply With MDI
Could someone tell me how to apply with MDI. I went to their web site and wrote them under their Contact Us link, but I have had no reply. Other than sending them my resume through the Contact Us link, there's no way currently to apply from their site. It may be that they are not accepting new applicants at this time.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
Sure, an IC can APPLY
imagine it being granted, unless we ourselves contributed to the state fund as our own employer. However, the application would at least help statistically show the true unemployment rate, and annoy our former company with having to respond.
