seems to me to be one of the worst I have seen. You have just told another human being they have nothing of importance to offer to anyone. I saw this and I hope you feel better by posting because I think by far it is the worst as far as putting someone down. For the 1 this was intended for, I hope you take it with a grain of salt and do not stake your life on a statement like this. I would, as my mother used to say, consider the source.

They offshore. Lots of posts about them if you'll read
the archives.
If you'll read through past posts you'll find lots of
recent info. Why do you need menitoring if you already work as an MT. Unless you do clinic work most companies will require you to work at least one weekend day, at least initially.
Lots and lots of posts in the archives.
Uh, look at the posts below. Lots of MTs have their packets. nm

They offshore. Lots of posts about
their poor or lack of communication. Their pay scale is weird, depends on shift, year's experience, CMT, account, etc. I talked with 2 different people when interviewing, recruiter was not honest with me about the account they wanted to put me on, thankfully team leader was. I had previously worked on that account with another company and it was a horrible account. I can't remember if they had more than employee status or if they provide computer, but if you look at their ads on the job boards it should say.
I was told platform was DocQScribe and also WebCorrect was mentioned. Never used them so don't know much about them, but I haven't heard good things about either. Each report had 3 files, 2 of which are not voice files, but supposedly they compensate you 3 (?) lines for each report. Sounds like a pain to me.
There have been lots of posts in the past. Rather
than restate my experience if you will open your post and at the bottom click on related messages and you'll find lots of information.
Read the archives. Lots there, most of it not
good. Someone else asked about them this week so scroll through the board.
Lots of negative posts if you do a search. nm

Lots of info, posts weekly about them.
They offshore, pay is average. Didn't accept position so don't know about platform.
Do a search of Meditech on here; lots of posts! - nm

Lots of NM posts because it means NO MESSAGE.

Lots of posts in archives stating that it is
a Indian run company. Supposedly they have a U.S. storefront office in MA. Turnover is very high, which is why they constantly have ads running. The only good thing I've ever heard about them is they will hire newbies. They pretty much have to because an experienced MT would not want to work for them unless they couldn't find a job elsewhere.
They are a waste of time. Lots of posts in
the archives.
Read the archives, lots of info there.
Um, read the boards? Lots of negatives about them lately. nm

Search on the company board. Lots of posts.

You are gathering wrong. Lots of posts of people
This is like beating a way dead horse at this point. So many just can't follow the subject of posts. The poster you are responding to is stating the fact that this is JUST LIKE the fiasco that used to go on here regularly with Keystrokes, with management and owners freaking out at any perceived criticism and posting over and over and over defending the company, calling the MTs liars, fakes, whatever. Yes, it is exactly the same, and it shines a very negative light on the company name, worse than the original posting. It is very yucky to see companies posting on here. It does tend to validate the MTs who have complaints. Its just plain old weird.
Lots of posts recently, look down the board, search
the archives.
Lots of posts recently in the archives. Horrible

Frequent turnover, offshore big time. Read the archives, lots of info on them. nm
s/b...read these posts.
I did not read all the posts but...
11 cpl is still available in some areas if you are working independently...straight for the doctor...especially out west, but then you have to pick up work,deliver, etc., or work 'in house'. My relative in Washington State was getting 14cpl !!! Then again, she was young, blond, and beautiful! Might have gotten a higher cpl just for that!!! hey! facts of life.
read the posts further down re DRC
This makes me sad. They always stayed under the radar, had stable crew, never a bad post. Hope it is a temporary rough patch. I always thought if the recruiter you talked with had been there for years (versus 3 or 4 days like most) it was a sign of a good company.
You just don't get it. Read posts above and below.
Do you think the T-shirts from China are of better quality than US-made shirts? You just don't understand...

SHE'S RIGHT - ONLY READ POSTS THAT ARE USEFUL TO YOU
You do not have time to filter through the rest of the garbage. If someone's post is not useful and contributing, then ignore it. Don't even respond. This interview alone may not make a difference, but when you add it to the next one, to the complaint letters, etc. there is a combined effort that can make a difference because of course you want it to go beyond one letter, one interview, one complaint, one industry. Trickle up so to speak.
I have not read your other posts sm
nor will I waste my time. I am quite offended by the comment of being an MT is not that hard or special. Its comments like that which have put this profession down where it is.
Obviously you are not a professional MT or you wouldn't even think that much less say it.
Those of us who have been in this business any length of time have been through it all. It is a difficult profession. The knowledge we must have to turn out a perfect medical/legal report is unreal. The doctors who dictate the stuff could not put together a report as we have.
Over the last few years with VR coming along and everybody and his brother and sister wanting to be an MT, the quality has gone to pot and it seems that it is an accepted fact which is very sad.
BTW, yes I am one of those MTs who go to the doctors office and talk in medical terms but I dont' tell them I am an MT because they usually ask what I do for a living. You know what? Being able to understand and communicate with these doctors has saved my life in the past. How about you? If you are an MT, then I dare say with your attitude, you don't have a whole lot of pride in what you do and consider this to be nothing more than a typist job!
The details have been given already. Read the posts
You want more precise specifics, leave an email address. I'm not putting my head on the block with specifics on a public board.
Yes, I've read several posts about SS
and will beware. Thanks. I've learned a lot just by reading all the posts here.
Do we have to go through THIS again?? Read past posts! .....nm

Did you not read all the posts about no work, that if
you had bills to pay this wasn't the job you would want?
I read below posts and don't see whether they require ULD!
TIA
If you are not wanting to read the posts, don't. (SM)
There is no need to harass posters just because you aren't agreeable to what they post.

Please, please, please....read past posts.
They should give you enough warning.
Read all posts in this thread...
I have already called the management company who manages this building. They have no knowledge of a JAX Transcription who currently occupies or who will be occupying.
I need the suite number in order to check it out. There are several businesses in that office building. The rent in that building is very high...doubtful that a new company would start out in that building because of this.
If I have the suite number, I can go and see who actually occupies the suite. BUT, according to the management company, there is no such company in their building. This is the same building that Transcend is in. I have called Transcend and they have never heard of this Company. If you call the phone number that is provided in the posting by this company, you will get a regular answering machine. I think this is totally bogus.
Have you read the posts on the MQ board?? You might
s
I have read all of the recent posts that came up
when I searched, was wanting more information as it did not answer all the questions I had, that is why I was asking someone to email if they could give me more specifics. Thanks.
I've read the old posts
before I accepted a position with them and I am glad I ignored them. I find my line rate to be very fair compared to what I have seen advertised for other companies, no it isn't the 14 cpl that I used to get on my own but who would expect that now anyway :). I have never had any problems with them. Pay has always been on time, the QA and management are always quick to answer any questions I have and they leave you alone during the day. IM is only used for quick problems and I can count on 1 hand how many times they have IM'd me, other than my first 2 days to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. To each their own though, everyone will not be pleased with the same companies.
