My experience so far with Teletrak

In Reply to: I see the post below about Teletrak.... - Rad MT looking for work
I work for Teletrak. They do use Go To Meeting to install the software and for fixing technical problems. They send you a link to join the meeting and you grant them permission to get into your computer while they look for and fix the problem. You can see on your screen everything they do. You can see exactly what files they open, etc.
They use VPN to connect to their web site and transcribe. I like working for them so far. The pay has been right on time and the line counts are good.
You do need a fast computer with lots of RAM and also the highest-speed internet to be the most productive. You download the voice files and the templates one at a time from their site. Any questions I can help with, I will answer as best as I can with only a few weeks with them.

Ok, I checked out the ad on the job board, went to the website, do they require you to transcribe 13 TEST FILES????? I listened briefly to each and only ONE is horrible...but that is just too much. Anyone else think that 13 is too many??
Teletrak
The offshore big time.
Teletrak MT
I, for one, believe that we should do everything we can to keep our jobs in the good old USA so when I look for employment the first 2 things that I do are to see where the company is actually located and to ask them if they offshore. With that being said, I saw the ad for Teletrak MT, how the ad clearly states no offshore please and I thought that this might be a company to look into. However, I went to their website, went to the link contact us and wayyyyyy down at the bottom of the page I see this ...
Creative Director: Kavita Wadhwani |
Program Manager: V.Chethan Kumar |
Contents Manager: Rose Guerber |
Developed By: Starsoft, India
Of course I believe that these are who developed their website but does it not stand to reason that if they are using a website developer out of India then most likely they are from India?  |
Teletrak does not use VR. nm

Teletrak? did anyone listen to the

Teletrak testing
Am wading through their 9 dictations, that is their test. Has anyone had any experience with this company or their test? I saw the post about them using Office Word as their platform and that is what I am looking for. Just wondering. (Hope I did not post this twice.)

does anyone have any info on teletrak they can share with me. i can't seem to find anything other than testing was kind of a pain. Info on how they are to work for, ease of platform, is pay on time? Thank you so much in advance.

Any info on Teletrak? sm

Anyone work for Teletrak out of CA
Does anyone work for or know anything about the company called Teletrak out of CA? I am thinking of testing for them and just wanted any type of feedback. Thanks
Anyone work for Teletrak out of CA -
I work for Teletrak-MT in California. I am an IC and have been with them for two years. I really like the people. Always very kind and very helpful. Also the IT situation must have changed because they are great. If they cannot talk you through it, the get on and fix it immediately. They are great!
Pay is always on time.
The account I am on was difficult at first but now that I know these docs, it's much better. They are very flexible and work to keep you happy.
Teletrak...rate....(SM)
I noticed in Teletrak's ad on the Job Seeker's Board that they have lowered their starting rate to 8 cents a line. They were at 10. I used to work for them and am wondering why they reduced their rate. Anyone with them who would care to guess, or knows?
Another happy one at Teletrak
I'm the elevalady poster above from last year. Just was re-reading this thread. My answer to what specialty..I do the basic four and ER's. I have had no problems with Teletrak. PRO's: They pay on time, .10/line, lots of accounts, excellent QA, friendly and courteous staff, and you pick your hours although they do prefer you stick to that schedule as much as possible. CONS: Must work at least one weekend day (Sat. or Sun.), and they want five days a week but do offer short shifts, lots of ESL dictators (at least on two of the accounts that I work on, but QA is patient and gives great feedback). You do need five years experience to apply. I like working with them and am glad to have the job.
I think it was Teletrak - still on the Job Seeker's Board.
Anyone heard of or work for Teletrak?
Any info is appreciated.
Anyone who recently started w/ Teletrak?
Wondering if that VNC program is still being installed. I read something about it that was kind of upsetting and I do not want to apply without knowing one way or the other. TIA
Anyone here currently/recently work for Teletrak....sm
I had been in contact with them several months ago, did my research, they offered me a great IC position, great pay and flexible, very nice manager, but I had issues with their computer/tech set-ups, so went with another company. I am now losing my primary account and there is no back-up in sight, this would be in Feb., so I am looking over all my old contacts and offers. ANY newer information would be so very appreciated! Thanks! 
updated info on Teletrak? sm
Are they still using Go To Meeting and VNC? They had an ad earlier this month stating hourly pay, but looking at website, it looks like they hire IC also. Any other info appreciated much
Hi, Any new info on Teletrak in California? Just spoke....

If anyone has worked here or is familiar with this company, I would appreciate your impression of them of their management, accounts and QA.
Happy MT week comrades. I know you are hardworking individuals (like me) and I pat you on the back in the name of medicine for a job well done.
Here, here. Exactly my experience also, even down to the 10 year work experience. nm

Experience versus not as much experience
--same job should equal same pay?...Come back and talk to me in 20 years...
For the most part, old school MTs have a ton more to offer than a newbie, by virtue of the amount that they know. Most old school MTs can do just about any kind of report, because they learned the old way, they used books--Dorland's was a bible--not software and spellcheck, they worked in house, in the environment, they understand things that a new person who has only worked online with their word books, shorthand, macros and software just cant understand.. Why things are done in a certain way... Why it is so important that certain documents are treated a certain way. Why some reports are stat versus others. What you might flag for the hospital and why... When you think you know everything, esp as a newbie, you are doomed my friend.
Also, cont education is something that most old school MTs understand is a benefit for them and a gift to themselves...part of their commitment to themselves and their own education, not a commitment to being a certified MT, it is a personal thing, a standard.
If you don't understand that, I don't know what else to tell you.
Sure newbies can transcribe, it isn't rocket science, but they know what they know, if you know what I mean..(and that's about all they know) if they don't care to continue their education once they are out of MT school.
There's a little more to it than what you have stated here. If you consider yourself an MT machine.. you will burn out sooner than you think.
P.S. Not saying they do that to everyone - this was just MY experience
..
Your experience with them?
All the things you like/dislike.
My experience was not a bad one
It would freeze up and hard to get around in it. The accounts I had were mostly awful ESLs and mumblers...very difficult to get line counts. Mostly nice people, but doesn't mean squat if the work is bad. Good luck.
my experience with them - sm
I have 17 years experience, require very little training on new equipment, platforms, accounts, etc. Apparently, I was not what they were looking for. I had heard many similar stories from others.
Experience
That's true. Generalities are misleading. I have known MTs with a lot of experience who never had any QA or other teaching and they never got any better. As long as they typed fast, quality didn't matter to their employers.
My experience
I have worked for TransHealth and believe me run for the hills! (LOL). When I was employed there, they had a high turnover regarding their management and apparently still too from what I hear. No flexibility whatsoever, they do not seem to APPRECIATE their employees as they can be nice to you on one occasion and the next minute treat you like crap. They also don't offer nothing in way of competetive wages as they have no incentives to work extra hours or work weekends and oh when there is abundant work you hear them plead with everyone to get on but where are they when there is no work, exactly!!!!! My recommendation is to shop around and see what each company has to offer.
Same experience here, 7 yrs with MQ
c
I had a bad experience with them also. I was also
hired for Diskriter through them. All sounded great, but something else sounded better so I took it instead. I got a very rude email and was ignored after that email. Very bad business ethics!!
Has anyone else had a bad experience with
Amphion? I am sure I am not the only one who has found out they are just like everyone else
Experience
Can anyone tell me what companies are more selective in their hiring process, requiring more experience than 1-2 years, and willing to pay for it. I am starting to feel this must be an unrealistic expectation.
