Why not send this to her email directly?
I think you should take this to her via email. Its easy enough to create an alternate ID so you would not be identified if you are trying to be anonymous.
I think you know what I meant. That is not the problem as I responded directly to her email.
I am sure that any other company that tried to respond to her also had the same problem. I know it is sbcglobal.net but hey, I am not on here to get QA'd. I in a very quick moment put up a message to an MT who wanted a job and did it very quickly in the middle of my busy schedule trying to be courteous and helpful.
Have a nice evening or was that eneving. :)
Could you email me?? I have more questions..Thanks .. nm

Used to...email me if you have questions
nm.
I think you would probably need to call or email them for all these questions. (sm)
Maybe it depends on each individual situation. Don't know. Send them an email with exactly what you posted here, and see what they say!
Would someone who works at Amphion, please email me? I have questions nm

Legal or not legal overtime question.
My friend works for an MTSO who assigns dictators. You are supposed to keep up with your assigned dictator whatever that takes. She is overloaded and working 50-60 hours a week. She is an employee. They say they do not pay overtime and do not have to pay overtime but she is expected to get those dictators current and keep them current. I say because she is an employee the federal law of a 40-hour work week and overtime apply. She has asked everyone from her team lead to the HR person and they say they do not pay overtime. I say that is not even legal if she is in fact an employee. What is correct?
References
They do check past references before an offer of employment is issued. Don't worry though, it doesn't take them long to get back to you. I'm sure you are as good as hired.
References
When they said they were not giving references, I took it to mean they would not verify employment. I think that in the common jargon, that could be defined as a reference. The bigger question to ask is this: Why are they refusing to do so? Don't they at least owe this much to the people they shafted?
As far as the references go...
Sometimes you can look in your reference materials for ages and not find what you are looking for. If you have spelling way off, for example, it can be nearly impossible to find. Also, I can't speak for others but I continue to look while waiting for an answer to a question on the word board. I think it is great that we can work together. In all seriousness in an office setting people help each other all of the time. Most MTs are just not sitting in an office an able to ask the person next to them so a board like this is a good setting to do so.
Don't need references
Just tell a potential employer that you cannot risk losing your job, but can prove experience (1099, pay stubs etc.)
Most MTSOs just want to know if you can do the job and a good test will show that.
Offer to work part time at first to prove ability - and don't quit until you pass probation.
Don't be an enabler for DL - they can't continue to cheat people if they have no one to cheat.
References
I believe they contain derogatory personal comments that are not even relative to the job. I think the first reference came from Richmond, VA and every time I change jobs they keep getting that same reference.
References
I think it is illegal particularly if there are a lot of lies, half truths and gross exaggerations which I think is probably the case.
references............
I've had the same situation. You just tell them the situation, send them professional references from those you do know who can vouch for your character, and then move on. That's all you can really do.
Advice on job references - please SM
It seems that most companies may want to contact a previous employer as a reference, but if you leave a job because it did not work out for some reason (i.e. scheduling issues), how do you know whether it is appropriate to request that they be used as a reference? Any advice is appreciated. In addition, I am relatively new with only a couple jobs so far, so any advice on how to handle references in general would be very helpful! TIA.
They will not give references!
I spoke to someone last night on the inside and Heartland will not give references! How nice is that?
Not giving references
You folks need to contact the Department of Labor as well as an employment lawyer. You have a right to a reference. Do not let these people get away with this!
Took out all the references to attorneys, eh?
Thank you for finally taking your medication.
And have no jobs, and no references?
in bad enough shape!
Amphion checks references only after . . .
Amphion checks references only after an applicant has completed the testing, the telephone interview, and has talked with the hiring manager about references.

It took them over 2-3 weeks to just get my references checked....and....
then by the time they got my references checked, they said that all they had was an opening for third shift, which I was being hired for first shift...so I turned them down. I had a little bit of hesitancy to begin with before taking the job. Then, I looked on their website, saw that they offshored, sent the guy an email who was hiring me telling him that I don't think I would be a good fit for a company that offshores (because I do not think it is right),he called me back and emailed me back franticly stating they do not offshore, blah, blah, blah...But that just gave me more leverage to turn down the job ONCE THEY FINALLY called me back...I would be very careful with them...Never worked for them, but that is my experience....
I looked around and see bird references, but
not really an explanation of where it comes from. Is it because she sang Rockin' Robin?
Did references change to refrences in the dictionary? nm

Directly
No use taking things up with them directly, nothing ever changes, it is their way or the highway. Furthermore, they will never return your phone calls.
As far as not wanting you to post on message boards, hmmmm wonder why? Do you think maybe they know they do not have a good reputation and that might get out? Be careful, Big Brother is watching, NOT. This is America Folks chat on!!!!!!
Time to jump in here. Some MTs test well, interview well, only put references on there
that are perfect and basically SUCK when it comes right down to it.
List references, equipment, software, etc. on resume or not? Thank you. nm

I would recommend something other than Webmedx. If you can get good references regarding Transtech,

Only minium wage jobs check references
for some bizzaro reason, I swear. I wanted to work at a garden nursery and had to list FIVE references and all were checked. Husband got an IT job dealing with super-duper confidential crap, listed 2 references, and not a single one was called. What is up with THAT logic?! Penis=better everything I swear.
I find most joke references to Hitler to be very insensitive
nm
I love relevant, current references in posts.

Look at the post directly below yours or look
at the ads on the job boards.
You might try contacting QA directly ...
I agree, this makes no sense and my guess is all the HIPPA folderol is just a smokescreen this person is throwing up (for whatever I do not wanna deal with this or stick my neck out for ANY reason) ...
alternatively -- I would recommend saving each and every report you type from this person AND THEN flagging the report for QA so you can fill in your own blanks if no one wants to help you. I type several doctors who -- without samples -- speak in some impenetrable monotone ... without my file of samples, their reports would be moth-eaten.
good luck - if your company has a chat board or if contacting someone else on that account/WT might be a (much less convenient and/ or discrete) alternative.
Good luck, Yes, people do actually quit jobs over dictators like that ... too bad so many companies seem to blame the MT and some imaginary work ethic problems when the real problem, imho, is lack of support.
All this turnover of MTs (or any other employee class) is VERY VERY bad for any company's bottom line... but so many companies seem to blame the MT personally ... it poisonous.
I emailed you directly nm

Look at post directly below yours
I contacted them directly and they
told me they were NOT hiring..... Makes me sad :(
She said that the OP directly told her
and other coworkers all these things in instant message.
Business/company references aren't supposed to contain stuff like
s
I've not worked for them directly, but have been...
in contact with the upper management off an on for other matters. Very personable, level-headed, and presumably much SANER than some other company higher-ups that we've all discussed here!
You may want to call and ask them directly on Monday...
but I believe it depends on the way you were hired. If you are an hourly employee, your PTO would be paid at that rate. If you are production based, your PTO rate is paid at your average production over a period of three months. You must maintain a minimum line count though. Rochelle would know better.
loudspeakers directly overhead? I could
