but then every couple of months they are advertising again. Do you think it is a vanity thing, or they are trying to create a reputation for being busier than they are? I don't understand why a business would waste time unnecessarily in this process, unless of course they are disorganized and discourteous, in which case they have a lot of turnover, which no business wants.

I wish you would respond....I do.
But if it is only me, well that definitely won't do any good. We all have to stick together and let them know that it is an insult to be treated like non-*professionals*. If more people let them know they'd at least be forced to think about it instead of deleting a lonely email from one angry MT. I am beginning to think they continue to take away from us because most MTs can't be bothered and and/or will take it. ;)
May I respond to that?
Yes, you do get binders, and yes mine contain way more samples than I probably need; however, the necessary info boils down to just a few pages for doctor lists and account specifics. And the crap the previous poster so delicately refers to is patient demographic information. Speaking for my account, my morning routine consists of turning on my computer, setting my demographic update to run, get coffee ready, feed the dog and cat, and by the time that's done my update is usually done or has just another couple minutes. No big deal really. That's on the DOS account by the way.
Can you respond here?
I guess they deleted my post on the main board because it eluded to a job wanted request. So, I had to repost it here instead. If you wouldn't mind responding here, I would greatly appreciate it!
I'm not the OP but I have to respond
*WE ARE IN A DEPRESSION RIGHT NOW...MY ADVICE IS TO TAKE ANYTHING YOU CAN GET RIGHT NOW. IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU ARE LOCKED INTO IT FOR LIFE, BUT WE CAN'T BE TOO PICKY LIKE WE WERE BEFORE.*
I'm not the OP, but THANK YOU for pointing this out. I see so many negative posts on here (humorously referred to as *haterade* in another thread) that I sat and nodded my head in agreement with your post.
While some places fall far short of paradise, if the pay is even halfway decent and on time, this is not the time to turn one's nose up at a less-than-ideal offer.
To had to respond:
I do NOT find your reply rude or condescending. I only wish I could shrug and deal with it as you apparently have. Sure, I will give VR a try with it comes to my accounts. I am just dreading it because VR offers none of the things that I enjoy about transcription. I do not think the humor potential is going to outweigh what I will be losing.
It's not change, per se, that I resist because I certainly have had a lot of that over the years. I've had to learn 7 or 8 transcription platforms (one loses count) with the loss in production that always means. Three of these software changes were within the same company as some *suit* who did not transcribe decided to try out something new. I have adjusted my schedule every which way to be accommodating. I put in extra hours often, to help with TAT. I'm not a total what's-in-it-for-me whiner. But this is the change that just might do me in, because someone wants to cut my pay, capitalize on my knowledge and experience for less money, and call it progress. Seriously, other than the chance to keep working, what IS in it for me?
One reason I have resisted offers to go into QA is that I enjoy the actual transcription so much. Never have tried QA, I just do not feel I would enjoy finding and correcting the errors of others. Not my thing. I think VR would be so much worse.
I agree that MDI is a great company and I am glad to have found them after a few (okay, many) real loser companies. They have resisted offshore outsourcing and VR for a long time. I am just sorry they have had to cave to the prevailing trend on VR. Their client base expects high-quality work and I am hoping we can still give it to them with this transition. But if a lot of us *seasoned* MTs choose to bail out, that may not happen.
Did you respond to an ad?
Did they post a job opening somewhere recent that you were applying to?
ginny please respond
ginny, could you please give me your email so i can visit with you more?
What I don't understand is why anyone would respond to
a post that did not include the name of the company. I certainly would not. If they cannot be up front with who they are, they have something to hide.
i got the same email and did not respond (nm)
.
It seems usually I am the only one to respond good or bad -
Of all the people who have contacted me privately by email about the job and my thoughts on it, no one has ever come back and told me that I was wrong in what I told them - and I have never seen anyone respond negatively to the questions that are asked openly on this board until Tristen did it on this post.
My experience with eTransPlus may be unique, but it is hard for me to believe that I am the only person that is working happily at that company or they would not have any transcriptionists and therefore would not have a business. I know my 2000 lines a day are not carrying the company...
My experience has been very positive. I get help when I need it, I get extra work when/if I need it, not one time have I ever been told one thing and another happened, the line counts have not changed (I was given a pay scale when I started work and it is the same today as it was then). Yes, you make less if you work part time because you produce less lines - the tiered pay scale is in place as an incentive to do more work. You work harder, you are rewarded - ain't that the way most things work?
I for one will continue to be a cheerleader when someone asks a question about eTransPlus, as I have nothing but good things to say about everyone there!
You need to respond with you will comply with
stating you are now an employee. You may then be looking for another job, but from what you state, you will become an employee under those demands.
Questions about OSI, PLEASE respond, thanks
I am considering a position with OSI. How are they to work for? Is there plenty of work? Communication from company? Is QA constructive or ridiculous? Any input would be appreciated. Thank you.
When will you respond to our e-mails?
nm
You never respond to e-mails.
I don’t think you meant this to respond to me
I 100% agree with you and think the OP unrealistic in thinking anyone should owe her a job just because she wants.
Had to respond to the HR situation...SM
I very recently had to contact HR@trcr.com to get a question answered about benefits and eligibility and such (I was also a TRS transplant), and got a response that afternoon.
I really get agitated when someone has a bad experience and has to dump it on everyone else, because just because your experience sucked, that does not mean that everyones will.
I for one have had nothing but a positive experience since we were acquired by transcend.
Of course, I am willing to do whatever I have to to get my line count in, and have a tendency to be a little obsessive about working, but I rarely work beyond my 8 hours and still manage my line count.
I am incredibly flexible, and willing to do what I have to. I work 2 different platforms and quite a few accounts, but this was by my choice, not due to their being a necessity for it. My goal has always been to be as flexible as possible because that makes me more valuable to the people I work for and with.
To those of you reading these posts to formulate a decision, remember that everyone's experience will be different, and that stuff posted here is people's personal opinion, and take everything with a grain of salt.
Give them time, they will respond.
I wish you all the best!!
(Past employee for personal reasons only)
Who are you talking to. I did not say you weren't! Respond where you are
supposed to
Please respond about transcription south
I am really looking for some information on this company. I am suppose to start here but it has taken a month process for all of the paperwork. Just wanted to make sure they are a good place to work for. Any response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to respond! nm

They talk about all of this upfront. Just because they respond
to an email or resume does not mean that they want someone to work an ortho account. The first thing discussed is pay and how the account works. Otherwise, it would be a waste of everyone's time to go through all the testing and interviewing and set up, etc if it is not what the applicant is looking for!
Medware - slow to respond??
Has anyone applied to them lately? I sent an email of interest, got no answer. Sent an email to another person, a new recruiter, and received a response with just all the paperwork to fill out and the testing package. Returned the tests immediately, no response. Followed up to make sure they got them, no response. She had said they were growing (actually it sounded like she was reading from a script, very flat) so why not answer back??
Sure would be nice if they would respond to my application
wonder how long it takes
I have never had problems. They respond fast. But then again, I have only had sm
to call once after initial set up, so I might not be a good person to answer this. The guy I talked to was nice and fixed the problem right away.
maybe they're doing other things and need a day or 2 to respond.
nm
Please respond if you do voice recognition....
I haven't been able to get any clear answers.....have been told some unsettling news about low pay per line for VR work.
Anyone who does VR work.....what is your pay per 65-character line? No company names needed!!!
How long does it take TransTech to respond to
..
Did anyone respond to the ad for operative report?
If so, what type of response did you get? Do you think it is a safe company to try?
TIA
Don't have time to respond right now, but feel
free to e-mail and I'll answer some time tonight. I've been told by someone else that the only positions they are hiring for currently are 10-hour shifts Friday-Monday, 2nd and 3rd shift.
Heck, I can't even get the company I am currently with to respond! sm
I work PT for a national and just cannot get enough work. This has been going on for months. I was on the job board hoping to find another PT position in order to supplement my income. I couldn't help but notice a very enticing ad that had been placed by my own company. I wrote an email to the hiring recruiter for that division. I can't even get a reply from my own company!
Does anyone think that working for two different regions/divisions of a national MTSO could be considered conflict of interest? I personally don't see how. I would think recuiters would consider it a bonus. There would most likely be very little training, if any at all.
Wish they'd respond to my email and resume.
Took the test, did everything right and it's now been three weeks. After 15 yrs of experience, I know I did fine on the test. Guess they aren't hiring.
They never respond to emails, resumes, etc.
x
And you took the timeto read it AND respond to it
Interesting, huh?
Go back to stirring your cauldron now...
Maybe it's because they post jobs and never respond to people.
Has anyone actually had them respond to a resume?
Is this really true? Transolutions administration can you respond?
??
How long does it take Webmedx to respond to an on line app? (sm)
Just sent it off Friday, so I guess it could take a couple of days. I am just ready to make the leap and I think I am leaning towards this company. They sound pretty good from their ad and I see few/if any negative posts about them.
Just curious how long the whole process will take from application to testing to potential hiring and beginning work. Any input?
How long does it take Webmedx to respond to an on line app? (sm)
Sent in the initial application, got an immediate E-mail with some different questions on it which I submitted 2 days ago.
Really want to work for this company part time for now, possibly full time later.
Any info appreciated.
I was there last yr. Lack of communication and slow to respond QA
s
...made me leave. QA was also very slow to respond

I was curious, but it was rather vague, and no I didnt respond. nm

I'd like to respond to the comment about firm accounts - sm
There is NO SUCH THING as firm accounts for traveling transcription. These are hospitals that will need ON SITE short term staffing. This is not acquiring hospital accounts to work at home or to relocate transcriptionists. I can say that I have been to over 32 facilities in my seven years, and some of them on multiple occasions. I am on a current assignment that is my fourth time returning. I have had two transcriptionists travel for me already.
Please do not think that this is for work at home or firm accounts. As transcriptionists working for national services, I'm sure most of you know that some hospital accounts do not last forever, and there are no firm accounts with those as well.
Thanks
Mary Anne
I wanted to respond before the crickets got too deafening...
The Truth about the company is that the people you seem to be describing haven't been with the company for several years. For the purpose of full disclosure, why not share with the readers YOUR personal experience with the company, specifically the events surrounding your termination? I'm curious as to the number of lines you averaged a pay period, how many days did you feign an illness and just not work, how limited your skills really were/are to where no decent company would waste their time with you? It's is amazing how you are critcal of a posters rude and unprofessional comments when you slander an entire company and its employees with words like horrible, awful...crappy, stupidest... etc. Personally, I'd have more respect for you if you had a set of principles that you lived by, were consistent in your actions and your words, and if you had any sort of work ethic. Clearly, you are typing on a board during the hours in which you are supposed to be transcribing important medical documents. Can you still hear those crickets?
DTS-America. Anyone else have trouble getting HR to respond to replies regarding
your replies regarding insurance cards, direct deposit forms, vision cards. Just wanted to know if its just me, or has anyone experience the problems. She doesn't return phone calls or e-mails. I did finally have to call my supervisor, and for some reason a week after that they sent me a temporary card from the website. Do you think they contract the HR people or what?
Oh, yeah, they hang out around here and respond to some posts even n/m
x
You know, you do not have to respond to these posts if you find them annoying!
What are you, the post police? If these posts annoy you so much, why do you feel a responsibility to respond? **I'm telling**?? Control issues maybe? No one is making you read them or participate you know.
Send me an email and I will respond. I'm packing up and getting the**** out of Dodge. nm
 nm
Do you know how long it typically takes them to respond to resumes sent in?
nm
Public board. I am free to respond to any post.
x
I have known this for a long time; that is why I NEVER respond to an email from ANYONE on this board
because it will identify your email address when you return their email. When they ask me to talk via email, I just don't respond to them. NO RETURN EMAIL FROM ME.
If you find the original post so offensive, why did you respond at all?
Why don't you get a clue? A good number of people enjoyed this. If you dislike it, you can just move on to some rosy-happy-fun filled post and leave the rest of us to chuckle without being harassed.
