The dictators from the test weren't that bad and they are actually from the oncology acct I would have been on. I think the pay was about 8 cpl and you'd be an IC with a line requirement of 1500 a day. That's really all I can remember. I just didn't want to be an IC.

I thought it was rude that they never spoke to me or let me test
Believe me, I have a lot of good experience and don't feel I am just entitled to a job. I am flexible on my hours and days and can do any work types. My equipment is state of the art.
It just really fries me to see these companies complaining about a shortage of MTs and then just brushing them off when someone good comes along. Do they really want quality MTs, or do they want newbies that they can pay nothing and walk all over?
The way I figure it, it is their loss, not mine.
Usually a spelling test, a punctuation test, and maybe 3-6 test files to do. Sometimes done using

just spoke to her - THEY DO NOT
NM
Spoke with them last Fri
and the recruiter told me that they don't really do part-time anymore. However, she also told me she would either email me over the weekend or call me Monday to let me know she had worked out a schedule for me...and that didn't happen. *pout*
I agree. I just spoke with NY and they said
an emphatic, "NO".
Very low pay when I spoke with them 1-1/2 years ago. nm

I spoke with her and she was very nice. (nt)

You said you spoke to the owner.
You are not credible.
Why I spoke with the owner - sm
SHE called me, SHE hired me, SHE promised me a job at a certain rate, SHE gave me all kinds of excuses why the job never materialized and then I never heard from anyone again. Enough said.
I also spoke with the owner for the same
exact reasons. She called me, she hired me, she emailed me daily, she offered me account after account, which never materialized while I did crap work just waiting for her promises to be kept. Guess what? They never were!
Is that company you spoke of . .
Is that company you spoke of hiring IC? I have a part-time gig typing ER notes now and I'm not really happy there. Some QA people are so nice and polite and very helpful when you have a blank/question, but others are down right mean and rude -- very unprofessional. I have a ton of experience typing clinic -- not much ER. It is so hard to find companies that hire for clinic dictation and actually have enough work. The pool is almost always dry at the hospital. I really love typing ortho and oncology. Was hopeful to find full-time clinic work again in either of those two areas. I am so glad to hear from MTs who have found a light at the end of the tunnel. I worked for a few bad apples too. I get a lot of offers, but from crap companies. I was beginning to wonder if there were any good places left out there. 
I got the call to and spoke with her...
The company's website is www.alsi-llc.com . She said she was looking for well versed rad MTs to work on VA hospital accounts..pay is 7 cpl.
ITA. I'm going one now who if he spoke up and wasn't
banging what s/l a stapler while dictating I might be able to do him. He has a very strong accent and I was halfway through the report before I learned the accent and after I finish I'll go back and relisten.
I spoke too soon I must need new glasses

I just spoke with the HR representative
on Friday. If you want her information, contact me directly and I can give you the information on who you might talk with.
I got a card and a gift.. as did everyone I spoke to
You may want to wait a few days and take that back.
I just spoke with the recruiter today.
They appear to be hiring for both Diskriter Employee status and Hospital Employee status. Im not sure why, but she only spoke to me about being an employee for Diskriter and benefits were cheaper than what I have been quoted from other companies, but still pushing up to $300 a month for family plan. I would like to know what the hospital employee benefits are like in comparison. Hoping to get clarification on this today.
oops, correction, spoke too soon -- sm
OSi does not appear to offer health insurance, etc. on their website ... they do offer holiday pay and other nice things ...
I spoke with the gentleman from Transcription Inc this morning - sm
Their headquarters or corporate office is in Hot Springs, Arkansas. It is a start-up company, not in business yet. What else do you want to know?
You have GOT to be kidding. She was one of the nicest persons I ever spoke with regarding MT.
She is very upfront and open, and was even willing to discuss pay rate pretty much from the beginning, so I wouldn't waste time if the rate they could pay wasn't enough. I thought she was great.
The recruiter I spoke to was VERY misleading about holiday pay.
I never would have known (until it was too late!) about their holiday policy unless I had read it here.... I've tossed my notes from the interview but as I recall she said something about as long as you work your next scheduled day before and after you get time+1/2 on holidays. Could be wrong but anyway it left me with an impression apparently pretty different from the truth. I'm so glad I said, I'll think about it!
Hi, Any new info on Teletrak in California? Just spoke....
with the recruiter and she is super-nice, everything seems great for an IC, just wonder if anyone has worked for them and what it is like....doing a balancing act here, any info would be sooooo appreciated! 
Not personally, but I spoke with a friend this morning and she sm
has a friend who went to work there recently and so far is very happy there. Hope that helps even though it is only from one source.
Hey great! I spoke with the recruiter yesterday and SM
am scheduled to learn Bayscribe on 6/30. I need a new computer, do you have any recommendations? Vista or XP, desktop or laptop?
Does Bayscribe have to be downloaded onto your computer or is it something you just call into? Thanks for ANY info. I will be ueing a C-phone, havent used one of those in years!
I just spoke with a company from New Jersey today...sm
Rude was not the word for this recruiter...My goodness, makes me think that is the norm in New Jersey. geez!!!
The rep I spoke with on Friday mentioned 60 positions... nm

I currently spoke with a local hospital and their pay was hourly with an incentive (nm)

I remember Andrea or Ondrea. She was lovely whenever I spoke to her.

I took a test for a company and my foot pedal would work with the test and I had keep going back
over the dictation time and again to get all the words because I couldnt stop and start it by the foot pedal. What can I do about this.
Just took the test myself. No actual dictation to transcribe. Just a written test.
For 13 cpl, I might do it if the dictators aren't a total horror.
I just took the test today - thought it was a great test of MT skills.
x
There is no written test. Must have been a different company. I took their ortho test sm
and it was easy. You had to know your terminology but it was easy to understand AND I used my foot pedal.
I spoke with recruiter 3-4 wks ago and was told mixed acute care & clinic, no ops exclusively. Low

Is the test through mttest.com a timed test? Thanks. nm
MQ Test
How long does it take MedQuist to get back to applicants once they have completed the test?? It has been a week for me now and have heard nothing. Is that good or bad???? TIA
What are they asking you to do? What is the test?
MTStars? Maybe there are some posts that may tell you something.
Took their test once.
Short ER test. Easy as it gets. They claimed I didn't pass their test and was therefore unqualified to work for them.
After doing MT for 10+ years at some of the top medical centers in the country (including currently) and ERs for 3+ years, it was obvious they were screwed up pretty bad.

try windows media thats what i had to do

Has anyone taken a test using
on MT Test are using Cscribe. I think it stinks, but maybe a foot pedal would help. Thanks.
I did a test for them.........sm
I did a test file for this company. I never heard back from them. The lady said they required 98% to pass. I know I didn't get 98% because I had to rush through the fairly large test file, and I was working for MQ. With my job at MQ there were some strange requirements that I carried into those reports without time to check the BOS. However, after working about 4 hours on the test file they never even had the courtesy to reply. I do not think that this is professional, JMO.

I took their test.
I did AWFUL. I'm not sure why. I've taken dozens of other employer tests and got anywhere from a 96 to a 100 on ALL of them. On Medware's test I got a 43 out of 50, which is basically an 86. I can't understand it!! It didn't seem that difficult, if I recall, and I've done so well on everyone else's test. Needless to say, I didn't get offered a job. LOL!
I did take the test,
but at the time I was offered a position with another company that I decided to take. I have over 25 years of experience in this business. The test is not timed and it is open book. They tell you that at the beginning. You may think it is over the top, and that may be true; however, they may be wanting to see just how good we (as MTs) are at doing research and such. I'm not saying I agree with the test, I'm just saying that each company has their own way of doing things. If you want the job, you have to do what it takes to get it.
Did you take the test?
.
How did you do on the test?
.
So, how did you do on the test?

I took their test also.
They told me I didn't pass either. I requested to see what mistakes I made and wanted to know what my test score was, and they never told me even after sending several emails to them asking for this information.
I wanted to see what mistakes I made as I didn't have any problem taking their test at all, and I don't understand it.
Test???
I haven't had to take a test with them. I applied through the job seekers board here, got a call the next day, offered the job and was told they would be send me the Lanier system and my lead would get in touch with me on Wednesday when she gets back from training on this new account. I hope there isn't a test, I don't like tests, please don't make me take a test, I don't wanna, I don't wanna. LOL.
