When someone posts positive about a company it has to be a recruiter. sm

Are you sure that applies to the sm
MT?  Usually a position of supervision might have that clause because you'd be privy to confidential company and account information, but as far as the MT part goes I don't see how they can dictate who and how many companies you can work for.
And this applies not only
to the comments on this forum, but also to the advertising tactics of MT schools.
I agree with you, but I don't know that it applies to OP. (sm)
some people actually get back thousands when only paying in a few hundred and keep having kids.  The more kids, the better the benefits.  Must repeat, I don't think scenario applies to OP of this thread, tho.
This law only applies to mass

I think that sentence applies here -

you know, the one they use when they don't want to come right out and say you're terminal:


DON'T BUY ANY GREEN BANANAS!


Thank you! This applies to all companies

I am tired of seeing postings or ads that say IC but want you to work a certain shift.


As far as asking for extra coverage, just tell them you will do your best.  No IC should have to adhere to a strict schedule or provide extra coverage on weekends or nights unless the said company would like to offer an incentive. 


Some say this job is 24/7, and while I agree, that does not equate to abuse of an IC!!!! 


Depends on # of employees if it applies. Also
Statutory employee is not the same as an employee. Statutory is basically an IC... no overtime at all.

Yes, I was speechless when I saw that ad. If anyone applies to that job, they should have their head
examined. Companies like that are the reason we cant make a good living or even decent one at this point. That is a disgrace!!!
Yes, that applies to me too, but things are more complex than
juar
I'm wondering why anyone applies there when it's well known Toth
.
Nope. Only applies to less than 50 if the number is 33% or more of
I had to study this law very extensively for certification.
Minimum wage only applies to employees.

Always cpl times total lines, unless a bonus applies

Once you are totally off training and being paid only by your line rate (cpl), your pay will be based on your two week, total lines typed  (cpl x total lines typed).  The only time lines per hour would affect you is if you qualify for a bonus.  I do not know what MT Level you are (3 or 4), but I believe Level 4 bonus starts after 150 lines per hour.  If you qualify, don't try to figure the bonus out.  It will drive you crazy.  Just be happy to see a bonus in your check! 


Battering is a choice. (Domestic violence applies to many things)
May I suggest counseling? I mean that in a kind way. BTW: If you don't understand let me explain: Battering is a choice is same as Sucking up is a choice. Wondering if you were married if you sucked up to him as well... and don't get me started on misquoting Scripture either. God never forces us to suck anything up. We are supposed to be like Him. He will, however, let us choose to suck it up or choose to be battered, and that is where we end up in Hades.
So, by your philosophy, suck it up, accept the battering and you will always have a job. Okay, so you will always be under domestic violence. Your choice. Not mine. Wish you all the luck in the world with your sucking it up choose the battering. Maybe someday as I said a counseling session might help. Or not. Your choice.

for MQ STAT employees tier rate applies to ME rate as well and how calcluated?
for a STAT MQ employee:  Does anyone know if the tier rate is going to be applied to the ME rate as well or are they going to go with the 80% of the MT rate for each tier level?  If the tier rate doesn't apply as well to the ME rate then going by the 80% of the MT rate is less than if the tier rate would be applied.  I'm sure that MQ is going to go by whatever keeps money in their pockets.  Guess this is a question for the supervisor tomorrow.

Not a recruiter...

In fact, no longer work for Spheris, but only because working 20 hours PT in addition to my FT job became too much. I cannot compare it to other nationals as I haven't worked for any others, but it was a good experience for me in many ways; good accounts, good supervisor, pay always on time.


Not every company is going to be a good fit for everyone.


Recruiter
damage control at its finest
recruiter-can't believe she said that. SM
I had one recruiter say to me, because I worked for a big national: "You must not be a very good Transcriptionist if you're working for them!" I said "EXCUSE ME! I have almost 30 years experience and have outstanding quality and can back that up." I told her straight out that her comment really offended me. Needless to say, that turned me completely off on that company and I did not pursue employment there. Too bad. They missed out on a great transcriptionist. Their loss.
Recruiter said they will
I was hired a few weeks ago and the recruiter said that they pay headers, footers and spaces. I don't know if it counting them or not. The platform is terrible and the sound quality is even worse.

recruiter
what recruiter quit?
As a recruiter
I would like to tell you that I look for blanks on tests. I do not count that against an applicant, nor should anybody else. It is always better to blank a word than to guess at it. A blank says I don't know for sure and do not want to guess. It basically lets a recruiter know that you know when to ask for help.
OR their new recruiter. LOL!!!
LMAO

Not a recruiter either
Just a plain ole MT.  Check out their website for recruiting info.  Don't think we're allowed to post names and numbers here.
What does it take to become a recruiter?sm
Boy some of these recruiters!!! Just what does it require to be a recruiter.Just got an email from one and my goodness at the grammar!!! Hard to believe.
That too. It is not a sin to tell a recruiter that you are not
sure. Being honest is the best way. Recruiters are trained in knowing how to evaluate what knowledge you have. The trained ones can tell.
Ask the recruiter

The recruiter won't tell you
The recruiter won't tell you it is difficult to get a linecount. Also, not sure who the new recruiter is. They lost a lot of people when making the decision to train in Trinidad. The company used to say they would never offshore and they had a decent reputation and were a good company to work for until the owner got money hungry. The company had been started by his late wife and obviously her ideals of keeping the work here became unimportant to him after awhile.
Was this recruiter's...sm
 I had a similar thing happen to me recently.
Ex-recruiter is exactly right (sm)
If you are an organized recruiter all of this can be accomplished in a short period of time. All it takes is good organization, attention to detail and professionalism. Anyone who expresses an interest in your company deserves a response.


Recruiter ads
I have seen 1 ad on the boards for recruiters wanted. You could always just send in a resume to the nationals with that information on your resume - that you are applying for recruiter position.
Recruiter

Hi,


The company I am working for now is actually looking for 2 recruiters.  Please email me if you are interested.

Not a recruiter
I have worked there for 3+ years on the Merit side. No real complaints here. We have an occasional work slowdown on my team, but that is infrequent and only lasted for part of a day in the cases I recall. The benefits package there is one of the best I have heard of in MT also.
As a recruiter, someone who actually has done
wonderful things in transcription does not get a test! People get nervous, PARTICULARLY if they have accomplished high achievements in this industry. If the person had proven herself in the field, then waive the test. She knows her stuff! It would be one thing if she just told you, but I know one woman who has done marvelous things in the industry that actually helped make the industry better for the MT and was given a test and flunked. She knows her stuff more than the MTTest site where she took the test.

No other field would test someone who has proven themselves 100 times over.

You may talk this way yourself, but are you an MT and can you pass a test? I know one recruiter that couldn't pass a simple QA test and told me so. I waived it but I did her no favors by doing so as she was an awful QA person, but that was really not her expertise. To tell you the truth, the only thing she was good at was running her mouth and gossiping. she might make a good professional gossip. I still hired her though and all I heard was how horrible everyone was at the company and this person said this, that person said that and I knew the love life of everyone there, then she complained to me as to what was expected of the QA staff (numbers) during the day. When you spend your time on the phone talking to everyone in the company, you won't make the numbers.

Recruiters need to relax on testing everyone in the field that have a PROVEN TRACK RECORD WITH MT COMPANIES...not hospitals, but MT companies. If they have worked successfully for MT companies and done well, held their job, made a decent line rate, they can do the job for the most part.
Their recruiter is probably one of the two
that I have ever spoken to that are pleasant to deal with. I have spoken to many recruiters and to say that there are just TWO is saying something. This lady will get back to you if she said she would. I have found her to be professional and up front with everything. If she said she had to take care of some things, perhaps something came up in her life that she had to handle. Recruiters are human too. I am sure she will get back with you as soon as she can. She's a nice lady.
Are you a recruiter?
How may someone apply with your company?
Or maybe you are the recruiter.

They used to have the best recruiter
but I can't remember who it was. She was so sweet and would work with you.
the recruiter
was Leslie if memory serves. I used to work for AllType and resigned when I noticed things were going down hill.
The recruiter probably is -

recruiter
The recruiter made a claim of an extremely high line rate, something like 500-600 lines per hour as I recall.
Recruiter? TTS has no recruiter
....
who is the recruiter now?
Even the long-time recruiter jumped ship!
Recruiter is nothing
QA/sup was very rude while I was there. Never in my extensive professional life had treatment like I had there. Maybe your account lead will be better, but mine made my life a nightmare. I was so sorry to taking the leap, but went to another national where I am very happy.
Who is the recruiter at MDI-MD? - sm

Does Dorothy always put the ads up?  Can't think of the recruiter's name who I spoke to within the last year - wondering if she is still there.


What are part-time/full-time lines per day?


How do holidays work - I know this has changed lately - do you still pick 3 to work per year?


What is the best platform they have - c-phone or inet?  Either way you work in Bayscribe, I assume?  How much demographic junk needs to be input by the MT?


Thanks for any info.


She is not a recruiter.
Some people just do not stop to think before they type. She has most definitely misrepresented herself and reflected a poor light on KS.
Could be a recruiter
who may be attempting to collect a fee for forwarding qualified applicants.
