No response earlier, anyone getting reply from FutureNet ads? (sm)

I submitted a resume several days ago and have had no response yet.  With all the hooplah on the boards about them not having work I didn't think they would be swamped with applications.  I was just looking for PT to supplement my other job so running out of work now and again wouldn't kill me.  I have 20+ years acute care experience so I really was vain enough to expect a response.  Foolish me. 


 


Thanks, already applied, no response...
which is probably a good thing because I found out they don't pay for spaces.
I applied with them with no response and
for five years. Hmmmmm, they must not need help very badly.
I applied, no response as of yet

I applied too and no response..nm

I applied through their website and got a response in
d
I've applied with them THREE times and have never received a response - sm
and it's not because I don't have experience. I had been with Brand X National for 8 years (you can probably figure out who) when I applied with Spheris, and I never got a response. Sent a second ap, nada. Third ap, still nothing.

Through this whole time period Spheris had want ads scattered all over the net. I'll never, ever understand why they didn't get in touch with me. Their loss....I'm now working for a local company and completely satisfied.
I got a response back right away

and I didn't have to take any test, but passed on the offer.  I'm staying with MQ because so far no other company can compare to MQ's platform or pay rate.  Good luck with whoever you decide to go with


 


Offered me as well but when I applied back
x
I applied and they called back...
when I wasn't home and left a msg. When I called back, the person answering the phone didn't even want to take my name and number, but did so when I suggested it might be a good idea. Never heard another word... which probably says something, right???
I applied and heard back (sm)
They responded almost instantly with an e-mail that said to send a Yahoo IM (instant message) to their address. I e-mailed back that I did not have an IM account, and could we just discuss via e-mail, and then I never heard anything again. Really makes me wonder how legit they are...
I applied there and just heard back

I don't know a whole lot because I am waiting to start but pay is 9 cpl (even though the ads say 9-10) and they use ChartScript.  You also must be incorporated because they are only hiring for contract work at this time.  No set schedule.  Hope this helps a little.


I applied a few years back
..... what an experience.  I have been a psych Transcriptionist for 20 years.  I tested, with basically no instructions.  I formated the report as I would my other psych reports.  No errors as far as terminology, English, punctuation, etc.  However, she said I did not follow directions (what directions?????) as far as my formating went.  She said if I could not follow directions she would not hire me.  She is a trip.  I wouldn't work for her for all the money in the world.
I applied at Keystrokes a while back

it took exactly one day to hear back.  They offered me a job but were only hiring full-time.  I asked for 9 cpl to start and they were fine with that. I wanted part-time.


P/S:  I love checking the archives; you can gain great info from doing this.  Try it sometime.


How long after you applied did you hear back? nm Thanks

I applied but haven't heard back
Do any of these companies let you take time off without pay if you haven't earned your PTO yet?  Any other good companies out there?  Anyone pay more than 8.5 cpl?
Anyone heard back from TransHealth? I've applied
I have 25 years of acute care experience and great references.  Maybe it's my breath? LOL.
I applied for other positions when they've had them and never heard back. nm
s
In NY or Georgia? I never heard back from the NY one when I applied last year. nm

Just applied with them. Patience, how long did it take for you to hear back from them?

Has anyone applied and heard back from "Editors Needed" on the job board? sm
The ad said, Want to break into editing? I may have the job for you. Just wondering if anyone applied and has heard back. Mainly curious to find out what company this is. Thanks!
I don't work for Transtech but applied w/them, haven't heard back
..
Has anyone who sent a resume to TypeToo in response to their ad for a psych MT heard back from them

Tested with TT last week. Does anyone know how long it usually takes for them to response back.
I need a job...yesterday... I've been applying like crazy but cannot find anything worth taking.  I'm getting pretty desperate but still not enough to take 3 cpl for VR but check back next week LOL
Medware..Anyone know what they pay their speech editors. I have applied but havent heard back. I
was just curious if it was worth my time or not.
Can I asked when you applied? I applied a few weeks ago
and never heard a word and I have over 16 years of experience. I applied because I got a recommendation from a friend of a friend who loves working there..Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get anymore details other than that.  I'm all for even one positive at this point on this frustrating job search. Good luck to you though and check back with us to tell us how the interview went etc. Thanks
Then as I said earlier.....
Next time leave it for someone who will truly appreciate the opportunity to make an extra $100 - you obviously don't. In these economic times you should be grateful for the extra. Also, it wouldn't matter where you worked, either self-employed or employee, everyone has to have taxes taken out. Even if you made minimum wage somewhere the taxes still get taken off the top. That's not something you can get around no matter where you work. I don't understand your logic of working 5 hours overtime actually equal 10 hours, but even at that it's still $10 an hour and a lot of people in this country don't even make that much. You should still consider yourself lucky and stop complaining about it or don't work extra anymore.
WMX - earlier and earlier

It's 5 a.m. and out of work already.  Seems to get earlier and earlier.    I wish an MT who's been there for years could tell me this is the norm and it's going to get better soon.  I'm very concerned--haven't been able to get 20 hours in, and it's already Friday. 


Here you go...I should have thought of that earlier!!
d.addesso@mchsi.com
I took it earlier........got second e-mail
that some were complaining they couldn't get on one file either, so she sent another file which loaded on my media player, but at least I could hear it clear as a bell.
Did they overhire or something earlier. nm
:
i was with MQ til earlier this year,
and i totally understand. I am using the Bayscribe platform, and yes there are markers you can go-to the same way. Was also able to transfer my MQ Expanders to the Bayscribe platform so i didn't lose years of input. This platform isn't quite as fine as DQS on many points, but it all balances out and i am happier than ever -- i wish you the same!!
earlier this year I tried them...
my computer crashed after weeks of their being in there setting me up. Lost everything, had to reload.

Think about it - virtually everywhere else sets up in hours. Is it worth it?

approach with extreme caution.
There were several posts earlier saying it was the
big Q.
Discussed earlier - DO NOT DO IT
As per the discussion over the last week, testing with them is most likely a terrible, terrible idea.

They're asking applicants to test with 10 LIVE files, which means all they're really doing is getting their backlog done for free.

Think about it - 30 applicants? 10 live files each? That's 300 files right there - no more backlog and no money spent. Yowza.
LOL-I saw one of those at the eye doctor earlier
this week. The gal taking my information just turn 62 on the 12th. She said she still uses the electric and the docs would probably retire it with her. She said it was a great conversation piece. My MIL has an old carriage return. It has 2 keys that rise above the others. Haven't seen that in forever.
Complaining about VR earlier
Weren't you MDIers complaining about MDI work going to VR about 6 months ago?  If it already has gone to VR then what is the problem with that VR work going to Transcend's platform for VR?  I'm not a VR advocate by any stretch of the imagination but I was following the thread a few months ago that your work was already going there and I was glad to have dodged that bullet when I turned down the job with MDI-Carlotta had told me the work would NEVER go to VR but then it did.  I'm sure Transcend does not want another VR platform when they already have their own.  Just an observation.
But an earlier post said
If the pay cuts are taking effect 10/1 then why would people not be getting calls until November?
I called earlier today
?
Sorry, I had not had coffee when I responded earlier ... sm
best of luck to you too. I'm sorry that you are having to go through all this. I think most of us just want to work hard and do a good job and be treated fairly by our employers. Seems so simple, but in my experience it has been hard to find. I'm moving on and hopefully will have found a better employer.
In refernece to earlier post...has anyone
Just checking to see where this stands. 
Can you restore to an earlier date and get (sm)

the changes the techie made to your computer?  I had 2 different companies set me up with an e-mail addy for their company, and got scam stock e-mails.  I feel your pain.


I posted about them earlier this week. I
received the e-mail with the prescreening form and it was worded so that I felt it was coming from off-shore. 
I was out of work for a short while earlier sm
I baked a cake. LOL
I left that company earlier

They have no communication. I arranged to have a week off as I was moving. This was totally arranged and okayed. Then they took me off the books because they said I did not report to work and had abandoned my job. I explained the situation, and they had to sign me back on with direct deposit, etc. Evidently somebody did not communicate with somebody else in the company. I quit.


I am in a wonderful job now and am glad I went elsewhere. 


i hope u are the one that contacted me earlier
if not, plz reply to me by sending an email.
I heard this earlier today...
... Are we worried yet? I feel worried.
I worked for them earlier this year (sm)
They are very nice people and paid on time DD. Platform was easy to learn as well. I had to quit because my daughter was very ill, but had that not happened I would still be with them. Good luck.
I think you are referring to my earlier post

and I am not in an illegal situatuation, though the poster who answered me tried to suggest that I am, or that I am somehow making the world less wonderful for other MTs. 


If you feel used and abused, if your MTSO treats you as an employee when it comes to scheduling and as an IC when it comes to pay and benefits then you are in an illegal situation.  I have been in similar situations and have simply chosen to move on.  But I would not discourage anyone from slugging it out with their boss over the issue if they want to keep that job.


I simply don't want my personal very seaworthy boat sunk by somebody who has a hole in her own boat.  'kay?


Sorry, I didn't see the earlier posts at first.
It just shook me up with GP's original post, because I like GP.
