It has  a place for you to submit resume, so they have resume and test together.  If you haven't heard anything in a couple of days call.

If so, how long before you heard from them?  I took the test yesterday and just wondering what to expect.  I think I did relatively well with it...had one blank though...but still pretty good.

Thanks.

Hello,  I am currently working with a company but need to change due to lack of benefits.  Etrans has sent me a couple of emails about joining them, but I wanted to know if anyone works there, is it worth it to take that test for 1 1/2 hours, when I could be transcribing.  Also, what type of accounts do they have and do they have anything that is entirely online and does not need a phone line to dial into a system, would love to drop my $40.00 a month bill for unlimited long distance.

Thank you so much in advance for any info!!

I was referred by a friend.  I spoke with the HR person, took the test, and was told I passed with flying colors.  I was told that a job offer was merely a formality and that I should go ahead and give two weeks notice at my other job which I did.  I then waited a week before I actually got an official job offer.  Then I was sent the paperwork.  It was unbelievable!  I had to have a physical exam by my physician and have him fill out their questionaire.  I had to find a drug testting facility on my own and do a drug test.  I had to have a TB test AND they wanted a chest x-ray as part of my physical exam.  Then there was the background check and reference check.  You would have thought I was going to work for the CIA and required high security clearance or something.  Then I was told there was a problem with my references.  They had asked me for two professional and two personal references which I gave them.  They called my personal references and asked them if I was a good Transcriptionist and a good employee.  Diskriter told me that none of my references were valid because no one had actually worked with me.  Then I had to clarify that they had called my personal references and if they would simply call the professional references, the would get the answers they were looking for!  It took them three more days to get it straight.

Finally, I was so fed up, I told them I refused to get a chest x-ray and I thought all of this was insane for a simple at-home job.  I was so upset because I had gone two weeks without earning any kind of paycheck while I waited for them to check how frequently I go to the bathroom!  I felt like a show dog jumping through every single hoop for a job that ended up being not worth it at all.

I feel for ya and all I can say is they weren't a bad company to work for, I just had an incompetent supervisor with very poor communicating skills.

Good luck!

word that the production rate will increase.  The reality?  It doesn't.  I have been doing VR where I work for about a year now and even after the system was trained properly it takes JUST AS MUCH IF NOT MORE time to edit versus straight-typing the document.

You must always remember that when the company presents a plan and its assurances that you will make more money in the end, YOU WON'T.  They may (cheaper labor) but YOU will not.  That's guaranteed.

your busy day to post that.
