If you want to email me, I can help you with any questions regarding MTtest.

Why isn't there a site like that where MTs can go and take the test and then their score/test/information is there on file for MT companies to look at?  Maybe there could be a way to just assign each MT a number or something if privacy would be an issue.  But the MT companies could go through and select who they want to offer a job based on what they see on the tests.

I am happy with the company I'm with now but if I could have my test on file and companies could access it and offer me jobs based on what they see on my test, I would always be open to listening to what they have to offer me if they price is right. 

I know there is Transcription Matchmaker, but this would have the testing already done.  Obviously it wouldn't make sense for MTs to be able to go back and redo the test repeatedly but maybe they could retest once a year and the test could be changed once a year, and that way if someone's skills have improved their test on file reflects that?

Just an idea.

I bet I went through an hour of booting and rebooting and starting the longer file over again.  I finally went to my laptop and it worked okay then. 

Needless to say I haven't heard from them, but in the meantime I got a really good job, so I don't care.

I tested for 3 companies.  All 3 used the mttest testing site.  I think CareerStep handles that. 

Some of the same questions on the objective portions.  Not the same reports on the practical portion but nearly identical.

Results:  Passed 2 companies.  Failed 1 company. 

Asked for my results:   None of the 3 will give me actual copies - I understand and respect.  However, they all 3 did give me my scores.  The failed test was significantly lower, I might add.  The failed test was the only exam that asked how much pay I wanted up front.

Virtually the same test ...significant difference in scores. 

So, my conclusion, having done exceptionally well with 2 others and then bombed one withsuch a bad result, reported to me at first I passed and then I only passed for a lower role, and then the difference in scores, and they are the ones who asked for pay up front ... it is in how they grade and how much you want to be paid. 

Too funny.

Has anyone taken the Speech Recognition Test at mttest.com when you applied with TransTech?  There are 11 speech recognition files that you have to correct.  I am wondering how accurate those files are compared to the actual VR reports you ended up editing at TransTech.  If they are representative of what you actually get to work on, that might be a good way for MTs who have never done VR to get a taste of it before they apply for jobs at companies that have a majority of VR versus straight typing.  I started taking them, but had to quit because my laptop battery was running out.  Not sure if I want to go back to complete them because I am not sure I want to learn VR either. 

Any insight would be appreciated.

the tests were different. One test took about probably 45 minutes and that didn't include the transcription part.  I started the transcription and the dictation was so horrendous - sound quality really bad, barely able to hear any of the dictation, 2 ESL docs, and 1 really fast talking U.S. doc.   I do about 90% ESL, but goodness.  I have nearly 20 years' experience and I have decided it just isn't worth my time to do the transcription part.  I'm trying to get out of a stressful situation currently, and this didn't seem like it was going to be the answer.  I know that it was only a small representation, and I feel sorry for anyone without lots of experience trying to take the test.

The second test was so easy and even with transcribing the dictation I think it only took me 45 minutes tops. 

I don't know why I continue to test and look for another position, because I'm fairly comfortable with my dictators, my company leaves me alone 99% of the time, good line counting program, etc. and I turn down every position I'm offered because:  1 - no one offers me as much money (even though I'm not making gobs of money); 2 - no one offers me the flexibility that I currently have, although I don't have as much as I used to have; 3 - I've got 5 years invested in this company and I know what to expect; 4 - while QA is pretty stringent I'm 99% or better and go weeks at a time without getting anything back .......  I just need a change of pace, but at the same time I don't like change, I don't want to learn new dictators, don't want to learn a new format, don't want to learn the quirks of QA and all the other stuff that goes along with a new account/new company. 

I think the last 6 months I've tested and been offered 8 positions and some companies continue to call me and none has anything better to offer me.
