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.

    Mandatory overtime
    Yes as of a few months ago when I was there they had mandatory overtime. I think it is better for a company to offer incentive. Mandatory overtime is on a par with home slave.
    Can anyone say if they still have Mandatory overtime??? nm
    s
    Mandatory overtime would keep me FAR away from them. nm
    s
    They used to have mandatory overtime. Can anyone address this? nm
    s
    Used to start off at 7.4 cpl and they had Mandatory Overtime! Don't know
    s
    Mandatory overtime's not gonna scare you away, huh? nm
    s
    Beware the Mandatory Overtime with them! Was discussed
    s
    No mandatory overtime on my team. In fact
    work is low.
    Post here in Jan. 2007 said they have mandatory overtime. Is this true?
    s
    So, you need mandatory overtime to reach your line requirement, huh? LOL
    Gotcha!
    And mandatory overtime (they don't tell you that 'til after you're hired). nm

    Mandatory OT Amphion
    You must be on the account with Drs. P, K, et. al. Been there done that. Mandatory OT should be compensated. It costs us money to rearrange our schedules. I exited giving my input and it looks like nothing I had to say made any difference. e-mail me if you like.
    Amphion mandatory OT
    When I worked there, the mandatory OT consisted of horrible dictators that the in-house MTs did not want to do. If you were making line rate before mandatory OT, you would quickly fall into the pit with mandatory OT. Also demographics on some accounts are a nightmare. Doesn't mandatory overtime make one a home slave?
    Question about Amphion overtime
    I have been with Amphion a couple of months only and hardly getting used to their system.  I have been told to do mandatory overtime a lot and this is messing up my scheduled with picking my kids up etc.  I have to make other arrangements to pick up my kids.  What is the best way to get out of mandatory overtime.  I never worked for a company with mandatory overtime, it was always my choice. They said no nights or weekends in the beginning and then they go and pull these shenanigans. 
    Why has Amphion overtime been stopped?

    I was thinking of applying with them mainly because of that.  Like the person asked below has the overtime policy changed or are they just caught up?



    Hopefully, you will hear back. Unfortunately, I immediately heard back from MD-IT
    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 hear Amphion is great.
    I hear they are mainly clinic transcription but I don't know.
    Did you hear back from LTS?

    I did and completed the testing..got paperwork sent in but havent heard back


    How long did it take to hear back from them?
    After you sent a resume, how long did it take to hear back from them?
    Anybody else waiting to hear back from
    NM
    Thank you. Hopefully I'll hear back from them!

    How long to hear back?
    after from FutureNet or MDI-MD, anyone know what's usual?  TIA
    How long to hear back
    I received an email earlier today from the MDI-MD recruter and she had been out of the office due to a death in the family.
    MTMTMTMTMTMT, did you ever hear back from them? nm
    .
    Anyone hear back from Milner

    yet? 


    Did anyone hear back from Medscribe out of NJ??
    I applied, got an email back, and have tried to respond but my emails keep getting kicked back telling me that mailbox does not accept spam or something like that.  Has anyone else had this happen, or get hired on? The lady's name was Margaret....Thanks.
    Anyone hear back from Archivus? nm
    xx
    How long does it take to hear back after testing? TIA nm
    d
    How long after you applied did you hear back? nm Thanks

    Took 3-4 wks. a few months ago to hear back after testing. I was already in a new job by then. nm
    s
    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
    Did anyone hear back from MRC after applying from here or from the AAMT site? Not me. nm
    s
    Just applied with them. Patience, how long did it take for you to hear back from them?
    .
    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.
    Anyone apply to recent CardioScribes ad and hear anything back? nm
    nm
    Don't sweat it. Be glad you didn't hear back.
    x
    I left Amphion a couple of years ago and never looked back.
    It was one of the best moves I ever made.
    After testing for First Choice, can anyone tell me how long it takes to hear back? nm
    nm
    Are you talking about the one with the 2 radiology jobs? I didn't hear back either...nm
    x
    Did any of us who left emails hear back from the MT who was highly recommending her
    s
    Anyone know how long it takes to hear back from Prescyse after taking the test?
    Will they get back to you?
    Mandatory OT...
    I just needed to rant that I am sick of Mandatory OT when I am IC AND typed 1400 lines in a day. There is no pay differential for this overtime until after 1700 lines that day.
    Yup...mandatory OT bit the big one.
    Glad I'm done with that!
    Current Amphion employee...I'm very happy. The part of Amphion I work with has no faxes, lists,s
    minor demographic work..superb QA and feedback.  Fellow MTs on same account are more than willing to help and now they also have mentor program.  My pay is what they said.  They do have different pay for different levels. 
    Yep, working and mandatory OT
    I love it!!!
    Mandatory OT? Is that even legal?
    x
    I thought it was going to become mandatory
    That all physicians would have to go to EMR by the year 2010.
    Anyone that applied with Kathy Kirby hear anything yet? I am wondering how long it takes to hear a
    response back
    Diskriter used to make it mandatory that
    a Transcriptionist with less than 3 years experience was not to be hired. Now they are dropping their standards to 2 years, no voice testing, etc. They do have a large turnover
