It is his choice who he offers what position to. He should not have lied about it, but I think

QT medical I think still offers the choice
of WP51 or Word use.
First Choice Medical QA position

All the ones I never lied to !!!

lied to again
I'm IC, too. Your line requirement is 4000 lines in a pay period -- I was told a while back that ALL of the offices were going to require 6000 lines for IC's.
I have to say, though, I was never lied to by MQ
I'm not trying to start a MQ dispute here, I know this isn't the MQ board, but I left Precyse and went to MQ and I have been treated sooooo much better there and way more professional than I have ever been with Precyse. Although, I think that any company would have treated their employees more professional than my supervisor.
I am the type of person that doesn't need my hand held, I would rather have minimal communication...BUT when I have a question and the lack of work is making my pay go to ZILCH.. It is their job to stop badgering me about line counts when e-mail upon e-mail was sent to them about not having work.
.. I bet you can guess my pay because this was my average 5 day, 25 hour week... log on work for 20 minutes, but never more than 1 hour...no work the rest of the night...then hear about you have to make that time up ..lol, when? I tried to get my schedule changed for that exact reason and was absolutely, flat out denied.
Like I have said before, I guess maybe it isn't the company itself, but the lovely supervisors that are hired that make or break your experience.
Again...they should not have LIED.
Not every MTSO requires this. If I am being hired to QA...then my QA skills should be assessed. If I was a poor MT I never would have been able to pass the testing. If I am a poor MT it will show in the work that I QA.
they lied. NM
.
They flat out lied to me then. They said
they do not get any kind of pay at all. Hmmmm....
Oh come ON! She lied her head off. sm
She lied on the boards right up to the minute the electronic e-mail came out that said she had sold the business. Good gracious, some people have a short memory. And when she was in the process of selling, she was send out e-mails saying how sick she was of all her MTs and talked about their K-Mart clothes and Kathie Lee hair. I remember those e-mails being posted. Pretty bad. LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE.
That is terrible, to be lied to and out of a job
At OSi I took maternity leave and they constantly called me to work no matter what I told them.
The DQS is an IC position and the Dictaphone EXtext is an employee position....
both part time...both making 9.5 cents per line...which is better IC or employee?
Thanks :)
The person that told you that LIED like a rug.
If you have it in writing, I'd turn them in to the FTC or BBB for false advertising. $30,000 is pretty respectable.
Well, think about it!! They lied to the MTStars Admin.
nm
The fact that the offshore and lied about it so they
could advertise here and when they were banned, they tried to hide their postings inside other posts and continued to post shows that the ethics don't exist. I wouldn't need any more information than that.
Other than the offshore, lied about it and got caught you mean.
Are you referring to the same HR person who lied about
Look in the archives (9/05)for a series of posts about KS where several people posted that the HR person told them that she had worked there for X number of YEARS when in fact she had only been there a couple of weeks.
I was one of the people she told this to. I am also one of the people who waited weeks to be contacted AFTER I HAD BEEN OFFERED A POSITION. Check it out for yourself. I have no reason to lie. I don't think anybody else has any reason to lie. The person you are referring to who gave you the stats about applicants and testing has lied before.
I urge you to find the conversation on MTSTARS that I am referring to that occured in 9/05.
One more thing...they lied on their web site
When I applied with them, it stated on their web site that they paid for spaces. After starting work with them, I discovered that they didn't, and when I questioned them about it, they stated that they had changed their line counting program and hadn't yet changed the web site. Well, the last I looked, their web site said yes, we pay for spaces, so if anyone is desperate enough to go work for this company, I would make down sure it is in the contract what the time frame for payment is and whether or not they do in fact pay you for spaces. They are very devious at Rapid Transcript.
wow 10 minutes a lot of time. She could have lied to you said sure ...
was okay and then have it rejected once you go hired like a lot of places have done and will keep doing.
You are lucky she was trying to at least work with you.
Actually, it is my business, when I have been lied to in the past about (sm)
why I am getting a pay cut.
Also, if you are an IC, there is not unemployment tax, worker's comp and normally, there is no rent, because they work out of their homes.
If they have been in business for a few years, you can be sure that their equipment and software are paid off. Again, no expense. Most companies do not provide equipment anymore, just the software and that is recycled if someone leaves.
You are right, I don't have to be concerned if there is coverage for the work. What I have to be concerned with is if there IS work and if I am going to be able to pay my bills at the end of the month.
And actually, I think it is everyone's business working for an MTSO, to know what their company charges the client. Why hide it?
Transcend recruiter lied to me
When I itested, interviewed and was offered a job at Transcend, the recruiter proceeded to tell me about this really nice account. Turns out it was an account that I had worked on at Medquist, and it was far from nice. As a matter of fact, it was one that I recalled as being among the worst. I called her on this, and she tried to take back and edit what she had plainly said. I figured, if the recruiter could lie about that, what else was she lying about? I declined the position. So, beware....
Well, I guess I got lied to by the recruiter then. Nice.

OSI lied when a company I worked for outsourced to OSI and .......
The gentleman representing OSi was present offering five of us a job with OSI. I point blank asked the gentleman if OSI outsourced their work, because I did not want to work for a company who outsourced overseas. His response was, No they did not; however, if they ever felt the need to do so because a client specifically requests them to do so, they would have to consider the client's request. I had just cut out an article not three days before that meeting where an OSI executive stated they were outsourcing accounts to overseas. I did not have it with me because at the time of the meeting, we did not know that the meeting was to tell all of us we were outsourced, no more job, see ya or I would have shoved the article in his face after his answer. Of course, I had no intentions of ever working for them, but just wanted to see what people like that say when directly asked. Oh well, if that is how they run their business, it will catch up with them eventually.....
I'm hoping too as I accepted position a position also nm

I guess if I got screwed out of my paycheck or got lied to by an employer I'd have a rotten att
This board is a great way to find out about an unsavory company before those things happen to you. If you think warning people about scheisters, liars, bottom feeders, and rip-off artists is amusing, time to double up on your meds, sweetheart.
Nope, the board administrator checked with OSI and they lied to her and got caught.
c
Mts have "personality disorders" ? Like, wanting to be paid what their worth and not lied to?
How about vacation? Bereavement leave and not losing benefits because your parent is dying and you miss a quota?
Or, how about wanting a 401-K and employer contribution? Or medical and dental benefits? Is wanting those a personality disorder?
Or, wanting to make production, but getting NO WORK day after day, or getting only the worst dictators?
Let me know where you work where it is perfect, because I want to work there, too. But, I also want benefits and vacation and bereavement leave and a 401-K, as a minimum, and I want steady work, like I am a steady worker, and I want to be paid what I deserve, and I want some good work along with all the crap.
Thanks. Let me know. ONLY a profession of predominantly women would call the other women crazy for wanting the basics. Sheesh. Again, email me with that perfect job, because I'd like to have one just like it.
Isn't Wal-Mart the company that lied/replaced labels several years back with Made in USA? nm

Two offers
I jumped at the first offer because I was on a long dry spell. The next day I got another offer. Same pay but excellent samples, directions, you name it. Better than the first company. First company is like typing in an old DOS program, second company uses Word. First company requires a different type pedal, second company (I USE MY OWN). Can I do them both?
I got many offers off of here
and two other places I can't mention or my posts get deleted.
MDI -MD offers 24 hrs, I think. nm
s
HELP, 2 offers
on the table.
One offer is Med-Scribe, FL. I did get offered the split shift that I prefer also.
Other offer is Medquist for more cpl. I was offered a split shift that I am not too fond of but need split shift.
I am weighing pros and cons of each and am stuck. Any info to help me weigh these two companies would be great......like what flexibility each has, anybody working for either, anybody happy with either?
low offers
I agree that there will always be someone willing to accept a low offer just to gain some experience. But, you get what you pay for. If a company expects quality work, we can expect quality pay for said work! The turnover rates would be a lot lower and the MTs (and MTSOs) would be a lot happier. It's a win-win situation.
Two job offers - very undecided -
One offer from Diskriter, part time (30 hours) PTO. They pay $12/hour for down time, including when no work is available. The other is Landmark, a fairly new business, but the owners seem really wonderful. Has anyone had any personal experience with either of these companies? Both are paying in the range of what I wanted.
TIA!!

IC, SE or employee? I have 3 job offers and
am not sure which way to go. I have little if any write-offs, so I'm thinking employee. The per line amount is the same. The SE offer counts spaces but no headers & footers and the employee offer does not count spaces but does count headers and footers and offers W/E and night differentials. The only real advantage I'm seeing is the greater flexibility with IC. Any advice? Thank you.
MDI-MD offers what you're looking for
They're awesome to work for. I'm on a super easy account, that I don't mind sharing the info on - it's for a hospital in eastern Maryland. The docs are easy, the platform is easy. I've even typed radiology for the account and couldn't believe how easy that was as well!! I have a 12 hour window, but I like getting up early and knocking out my lines in less than 6 hours! $$
I need some advice. Two job offers. sm
Job #1 is employee status/benefits, 0.07 per line, average ESL, plenty of work, great hours. Will have to buy computer and spellcheck software.
Job #2 is IC status/no benefits, 0.09 per line, no ESL,plenty of work, great hours. Will have to buy computer.
I have never been an IC.
I need some advice by those in the know. I really don't know what to do here. I do not have insurance through DH's job so it would have to be through my employer or private insurance, depending on which way I go.
Any advice by cooler heads than mine? Thank you.
Who offers BCBS?
What MT employers offer BCBS?
How is someone supposed to know who offers the best
medical benefits? Unless you have worked for every company you don't know how one compares to the other. If you have no pre-existing conditions and are in good health you are better off to get a private policy. Deductible might be higher, but your premium is less and with the money you save on premium you could put money away for deductible.
If you get a private policy you aren't tied to a company because you need the insurance.
Trying to decide between offers
Morning all - I have a dilema and would like some opinions on what you would do. I have been offered 2 positions. One is with a company that provides equipment pays higher, but I would be doing reports that I am not that great with and they are ESLs. The second offer I have to provide my own equipment and will have to spend about $80 to get what I need and they pay about 2 cents per line less, but they are easier work types and not as many ESLs. Which would you choose? I'm sure I'll get a lot of those nasty posts I have seen lately because you think it is simple , but I do know there are a few of you out there who will not be nasty and give me your honest opinion.
I'd wait and see who offers you the job
In this economy, a lot of companies are not hiring. While you may have applied with all of these companies, I wouldn't get my heart set on 1 until you've actually been offered the position.
With all the low pay offers - How's the PTO? see message
New job. Earning 3-1/2 hours PTO per pay period (2 weeks), which should equate to about 2 weeks per year until the 4th year. Only 2 sick days - period. How does this compare?
Transcend I believe offers
Who offers direct deposit for IC?
Curious to get opinions on these offers (sm)
Have an offer for 8 cpl statutory but a mix of clinics...have an offer for 9 cpl but acute care IC. Finally have an offer for the clinic work type I'm looking for but only 8 cpl IC. Isn't that low for an IC? Actually, since I don't want acute care and prefer clinics the 8 cpl stat looks better but it is with a company with a bad reputation but the other company that pays 8 cpl IC has no reputation so it is entirely unknown. I know nobody can tell me what to do but geez I'm using to making much more than this and have an account that pays well above it actually but I want to divide my time between 2 jobs and have an easier side account to supplement my high-pay harder one. Does 8 cpl IC sound reasonable or is this below par? Maybe it is worth it to take less to get the work type I want? TIA
I'm off today, all the time the day offers
Boy are you bitter. I actually feel bad for you. You sound like someone who isn't being paid enuf and has too many bills. and NO PETS - LOL. Pets will do wonders for a negative state of mind - how can you resist that little cutey pie!!!!
Just the way you say maybe that great job isn't... says so much about how unhappy you are with your life. Sorry. I got lucky and was offered a new job with what looks like a fab co. & I'm very happy.
I have job offers from MedScribe and TechScript.

I just got 5 offers of work after spending (sm)
2 hours combing the archives of the company boards. I then visited the sites of the services that were spoken of the most highly and which seemed to best fit my needs. Most of the service sites had testing/inquiry pages set up; those that didn't, I wrote a brief email, noting how well the service's ICs spoke of it, enclosed my resume (in the letter, not as an attachment), and asked if they needed help. Most responded. The companies that advertise, on the other hand, get between 200 to 500 resumes; unless one is one of the first responders or in some other way manages to stand out, the chances of even receiving a response are slim. Check the ads on For the Record and Advance; Google for lists of MT companies. There is still lots of good work out there.
DKMWRU is posting job offers. Does anyone know anything about it? sm
I'm reluctant to send my resume to companies which do not readily identify themselves. I wish there were rules for job posters to follow.
It is only insurance Spheris offers. SM
It is managed by Aetna.
There is high deductible of $2000.00 for single/ $6000.00 for family. They will not pay until deductible is met. You must pay for everything out of pocket. Medications are not covered.
I never heard of it either until the end of last year, when they announced that will be our new insurance. No options were given.
Transcend or Wedmedx? Offers from both -
which one should I chose, if any? Help me, please!
Well, first of all, it's not TTS that offers it but rather TransTech (TT). They will reimburse
their employees $1000 on the purchase of a new hybrid automobile or $500 on the purchase of a used automobile. It's their way of encouraging their employees to be environmentally conscious. Hope that helps.
