I was an IC for them. No complaints. Good feedback. One thing I didn't care for (sm)

In Reply to: InterPro present or past employees care to share your experiences - mt
was that if I had been an employee instead of an IC, I would have had to conform to their mandatory ergonomic protocols and send a picture of my desk/work environment as proof of compliance. Monthly meetings were sometimes interesting, mainly routine--not paid, or at least I never was for them.
I worked on their Vianeta platform, but many accounts were on Emdat, which I have never used and don't know if I would want to. Pay was good (set by me and okayed by them) and on time with DD.
I was only with them a few months and quit mainly because of too much work on my other, older accounts, and I didn't think it was fair to them or InterPro (or me) to try to keep up with them all.

I didn't say I didn't care, I just don't understand
why the sudden outrage over HL offshoring.
Well obviously I didn't care enough
I was stating my experience with the company, that's all. As I stated before, I have seen others say they were told they would be called and they would not. If I had really cared that much, I'd have called back. No high horse about it. I applied, they said they'd call, they didn't, and it's no loss to me.
But I think it's funny that someone who can't even spell PURSUE is criticizing me about this.
tried it also...didn't care for it
my account had a lot of ESLs and hardly any work. 9 cpl was not worth it.
Any feedback on TRX - good or bad
@@
I didn't care for the recruiter either and got the run around. nm

I didn't care 4 that crack, missy!
Yep. Like other poster said, lots in the archives. 99+% good feedback
on this company. Check the archives.
I didn't care for Ascend's platform...very time consuming
and no paid training
Wow, I didn't even know there was such a thing sm
as a traveling MT! That's kinda weird...
Uh .. didn't you just do the same thing? nm
nm inside and out 
Didn't hear a thing.
Too good to be true, I guess.
I didn't apply with them, but the one thing I know is.sm
As many MTs are out looking for *a* job, let alone a 2nd job, it's best to contact the company with whom you have applied in about a week after initial contact if you haven't heard from them. I have been looking, and the common complaint amongst recruiters right now is how busy they are with all the resumes and applications they are getting.
good thing it is a temporary thing sm
because people with your attitude don't stay in anything very long anyway. Nobody has to listen to that crap to keep their job.
You don't know me either. you can say old fart all you want (when did 53 get to be old fart....too funny) but at least I am a valuable employee who can get a decent job!
Had the same happen here, heard the same thing, good references and good ....sm
job record will get you better $$$ if you are willing to promote yourself, search like crazy, talk to everyone, etc., but I have never been paid a cent more for CMT, what a waste, and all the years I paid my dues to AAMT, what a joke, they did NOTHING to better our field, just took the money for better conventions, as far as I can see.
Did not say your credit was not good, I don’t care what your numbers are
I said MINE and only mine is what I care about. I am completely out of debt, only pay monthly bills and it does not matter about yours or anyone elses credit scores to me, only mine but I was just passing on what I had heard, not what I made up. The best thing for anyone to do if they are thinking about freezing their reports is to contact their credit bureaus. As for me, I see no need in doing this at all. What others do, I could care less. My slate is perfectly clear. Others scores, who cares?
It's nice to actually CARE about doing good for the company again.
The good companies who actually care about quality.

Really?? I didn't know that! Good to know, thx. nm

The only good thing I can say about SS is if you
go to work for them you'll not have the experience to know how horrible they are and when you leave you'll realize how horrible they were.
The sound quality is horrific. Some accounts have ESL dictators that are horrendous and I have 20 years' experience and do 85% ESL. Management is a joke. They don't know how to treat MTs. The only reason they offer the mentoring program is they can't get good, experienced MTs to work for them.
Good thing you did!!!!!!!
x
I did - not a good thing..
I did radiology. Lots of demographics to populate and training sucked. Not a money maker.
That was really the only good thing going for them. nm
Good for you. Just hope you didn't
displace a former MT who worked for the transcription company. A friend of mine is an MT with a national and is in a situation where her company hired the former Transcriptionist of the client/customer and she's losing her account because of it because they're bending over backwards to keep the former employee happy and my friend is very upset about the preferential treatment this new MT is receiving.
Oh, guess it is good I didn't then:)

WebMedX is a good company. Decent pay for high level acute care
They have excellent account managers and a great QA dept. The platform is really quite easy with the improvements they have made, and they are constantly working to make it even better. Everything is geared to making the MT's job easier. I have been with WMX for over a year and I am quite pleased with them.
Blanks can be a good thing!
They prove you know what you don't know! Very important in this work. Just be sure that all else you transcribe is right on.
My goal was always for 100% (thanks Scrapper), but really no more than two blanks in say 3-6 reports, and that has landed me lots of offers.
My first test, btw, was with MedQuist. I asked before transcribing the test how the scoring system worked in order to judge when to say when if it got impossible. No harm in asking!
Consider it a good thing they never got back to you..sm
I worked for them for a year. They never answer e-mails or get back to you regarding anything. The platform is great but the sound quality is horrible. They move you from account to account and I always ran out of work. Not the most professional company around.
One good thing about America - sm
if you want a job, you MAY have to conform.
EVERYTHING is being outsourced. If you do not want a job because it hurts your feelings that the people who OWN the cmpanies oursource, then that is just dandy with me. Maybe I'll take your perfect job and be happy with it. Your loss.
Agreed - I think it's a good thing.
.
Good thing that have not contact me....
because I will definitely not go back. Do you know what their new company name is?
That's another good thing about TT - they don't bother you (sm)
constantly with emails. I wondered about that when I first started too (3 years ago), but you'll soon come to realize they leave you alone to do your job. If something is wrong, they will let you know. 
...a good thing to have. Really helps! NM
s
Good one! I am going to do that exact same thing when I get off.
Perhaps something of this nature would be viable as it is as a letter to the Editor of our local newspapers?
a good thing and stay put, not think! nm

Sometimes failure is a good thing - sm
I would have to say you need to be looking at this as a blessing because more than likely that is exactly the type of dictation you would be listening to day in, day out. I have 90% really bad ESLs on my accounts that are wearing me out right now. There have GOT to be better accounts out there for us both. 
While you are laughing, that might not be a good thing because
I thought I was reading up at the top of this that the pay for VR at TT was 3.5 which is even less than what this person is making. I think at 3.5 or less folks are really going to be unhappy.
Good to know. Didn't know there was a base raise
//
I did and didn't have any trouble. Good luck!
Didn't Webmedx get good reviews here?
I was under the impression they were a-ok? Hmm...
i didn't find the communication to be good
well, it was as long as i said everything was rosey. Soon as things weren't so perfect, they became much less than friendly.
good idea...I agree...but didn't they have one once? nm
nm
Back in the days of YOG FN didn't have a good
name either. Your post shows just how unprofessional FN is and surely does not entice anyone to apply with your company. Even if what the person posted is not true, you could have chosen to take the high road, but instead you took the low road.
I didn't have the best experience, but it was not a good fit for me. Still waiting to get
hh
How are the MW accts that use the ExText? Good sound? Lots of work? Acute care or clinic? Thx. nm
s
Good thing you're independent,
Wow, you are scary. It sounds like a good thing for
TransTech that you moved on. Good riddance.
Good thing you are just a recruiter - definitely not a speller - LOL
If those opportunities truly exist in this co., then it will be a good thing. s/m
But I've been around long enough that I've heard this all before, and the statistics are not on our side. And even when the MTs DO see an improvement, it can sometimes take 5-10 years to finally trickle down to them, as they are usually at the bottom of the do-do list. I do sincerely hope that I am wrong, and that this company is truly different. Only time will tell.
I disagree - pooling can be a very good thing indeed sm
Well-created pools can be a blessing to MTs because they prevent cherry-picking, plus they are a boon to the clients who receive ALL their work back in a timely fashion, instead of whatever the MT feels like typing. Now bad pooling (throwing too many doctors into a huge pool) is another thing entirely - that is bad for productivity because there is simply too much variety for an MT to learn any one physician well.
Another good thing to ask is reliability of server. sm
Some companies have frequent down time. It is good to know if this happens and if so, will you be compensated for it or expected to make up time lost.
Shouldnt that be a good thing? Means we are in TAT.
