Has anyone done the testing for NE? I tried and found it very difficult to access and upload and download files. In fact my computer said that zip files were corrupted and I could not even get the files loaded. How do you go about uploading zip files? I was afraid to proceed as my computer was warning me of security risks to my computer. Anybody else having these problems?

Testing with New England Medical Transcription
Has anyone else had problems getting test files from them with IE7 and Word 2003?
Testing with New England Medical Transcription - follow up to original post
I sent an email to the recruiter when I was unable to access the files and received one back from her this morning (Monday) informing me that apparently someone who was also testing had inadvertently deleted the files off the FTP site.
New England Medical Transcription company - info??
Anyone have any info on this company? Anyone ever work for them? Thank you!
Testing for company and need help..sm pls..tia!
They will be sending two wave files and I am supposed to open them in Media Player and record them. Then I will use Panasonic to transcribe and send back via e-mail. Can someone please tell me how to open a voice file in Media Player? I have never done this before. tia!
You don't know before testing what company they
will recommend, but you do know the name of the company, so even if D&L uses them you know you don't want to work for them and just tell them so. Of course after you turn down one position you won't hear from them again, but really not big loss.
when testing for a company
Does anyone know when testing for a company and having to use word pad to take part of the test since I don't have just microsoft word, is it necessary to save after every correction? I know I saved after some individual corrections but I think Imay have missed some. I did hit save as of course at the end to save it to word pad. I'm just wondering how the heck I did not pass this test. I had one company ask me if I was certified because I did so well, but I don't know what happened with this one.
Company Testing....sm
Why do the MTSOs give us the crummiest dictators for application testing? I know it wouldn't be a challenge to our MT abilities if they all spoke like Shakespeare, but it seems like they do it on purpose...after lengthy applications, vocabulary tests, interviews, they give us dictation to pull our hair out. They probably couldn't understand half of it themselves. Why not reverse the process (lol), so we can save ourselves some time and effort?  
Company Testing
I just complete as much of the testing that I can do and send it to them. I was sent two voice files that were Acute Care and I have never done that specialty since I have only done Clinic transcription. I e-mailed the person who is handling the testing and told them I would do the Medical Transcription portion and editing portion and send the tests to them. I got hired immediately.
See if it will work that way! I refuse to take any type of voice file dictation test if I have never done that specialty. That's why we send our resumes and tell the company our specialties!!!
Company testing
Could it be that some companies are using applicants to transcribe their poor dictations so all they have to do is a little editing? After all, an applicant is not paid, and has more time to do research. Then all they have to do is send it over to their client and the applicants do the work. Am I suspicious?
The testing is done by an outside company.
I don't know that it follows any particular way, but I always use BOS guidelines unless told otherwise. I am by no means an expert on BOS as the companies I've worked for haven't used it at all, or only used bits and pieces - the client dictated style most of the time. The company that did the testing and Axolotl both told me I did extremely well on the testing, so I'd just say do your best and don't stress.
Questions about testing for a company
I just tested for a company who had me transcribe several reports. The reports consisted of good dictators that were extremely fast. Unfortunately, I left a few blanks where I just could understand what she was dictating.
My question is this, how many of you tested for a company where your sample reports had blanks and did you get the job???????
Quest. about testing vs. sending resume to company...
As we know, most companies have you test for them, usually through mttest.com. Some places allow you to submit your resume first, which is often followed by the invitation/direction to take their test. My question is, do most companies just recieve your resume and automatically have you test, or do they actually look at the resume first to see if your initial qualifications are adequate? I've tested at a few places and didn't qualify. I'd love to know that they actually checked out my experience first and that is why they're having me test instead of me spending all that time when they may just be able to tell me I'm not qualified just from the resume. Do you know which is the case?
Just took a test today for a company and I am amazed how rusty I am after not testing for years and
years. I had to really think about things again. I guess after you test enough you get used to it. That is the first one I took in about 13 years. I just more or less did it to see how it was. Should be interesting to see how it went because I really dont want to work for the company I just wanted to take the test. A lot of tricky questions in it.
New England MT? (sm)
A friend is considering them. I searched the archives and didn't find very many recent responses. Please email or post if you can provide any info.

Does anyone here have experience with New England Medical Transcription? I am looking at an editing position with them and need an idea of their pay rate for editors. Also, are they prompt with payment?
Thanks in advance!
New England Med Trans
I worked for them back in 2000 and 2001 for 8 cpl hosp and 7 cpl clinic. They direct deposit pay and are reliable and on time with pay. Only problem I had was that pay never would go up higher than that but don't know about now. No set hours which is good but 24 hour turnaround time. I actually know the owner from living in that area in the past and they are a trustworthy company just not high paying unless they have changed. I would be interested if you get a job with them how they are now to work with. Anything else I can answer just ask.

Has anybody worked for them? If so, can you give me the poop on them. I'm asking for a friend.
Thanks
I lived in England and ....sm
They do not employ at-home transcriptionists there and have very few medical transcription companies. Because they have National Healthcare, all work is done by government employees in the hospital/clinic. Not sure if Ireland is the same way. I continued to work for a company in USA but they have since sold.
New England Medical Transcription
The pay per line is not the greatest, but I find that I do better with them because I always have the same dictators (about six, shared with a couple of other transcriptionists) who are easy to understand, so I can do more lines in less time. Rarely bothered by anyone in the office. IC status only, I believe.
Anyone know anything about New England Medical Transcription? sm
They have an ad on MT Jobs. Mostly, is the pay on time, people decent to work with, etc.? Any input is greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know if they pay weekly?
Also, could anyone please share any experience you may have with them? I'm interested in applying and would like some feedback. Do they use FTP? Is there a lot of search for demographic information or is that built in to their platform -- i.e. information is supplied by client? (Not sure how to word that question.)
Thanks so much!

New England Medical Transcripion...how are they?
Looking for any insight into this company related to workload, work flow consistency, management staff, sound quality....the usual. Appreciate your help.
New England Medical...my experience...
I have been an IC with them about 3 months. I agree with other comments that the management is a cut above all the other companies that I have been with, good communication, friendly and know their stuff. Once off QA they don't watch your every move, but they give good QA feedback. And I absolutely LOVE ChartNet, not sure how many of their accounts use it, though the one I am on does.
I'm part time with them and there is always more than enough work.
As far as I know they only hire IC...but you would be best off confirming that with the company, because I'm not positive.
The only downside is their pay is low -- but to be honest, they've got enough other positives going for them that I'm hoping to be with them a long time. Some things you just can't buy, if you know what I mean. 
Feel free to e-mail me if you would like more information. Good luck!

Anybody work for New England Medical transcription? How is it? Their platform? Plenty of work?
New England Medical Transcription
I just tested for New England MT, and from what I've read on the board it seems like a wonderful place to work. Can anyone who has applied there before tell me how long it was before you heard back after taking your test. I took a couple of gets for GT work about three months ago and not one word back so I was curious to see if you heard back one way or the other in a reasonable amount of time.

Nerw England Medical Transcription, Inc.
I have heard that New England Med. will consider new grads. Does anyone have any info on them?
Amen. Look at Canada/Sweden/England who have UHC. sm
A patient has to wait literally months to get a simple doctor's appointment. In the news just yesterday was a lawsuit in England where a patient died of breast cancer waiting to get an appointment with an oncologist. That is why Florida sees an influx of Canadians every winter; they save all of the routine healthcare workups for once a year, go to Florida, and get their healthcare taken care of.
Universal healthcare is not free. We will pay for it with increased taxes and pay for it DEARLY.
New England Medical Transcription - Info
THinking of applying with this company. Any information. Good/bad. I know IC and pay 7 cents for clinic, flexibility with schedule. Anything else would be much appreciated.
Update on New England Medical Transcription
I heard from them today. I was offered the job and am in the process of sending back the contract. I'm excited to be starting something new, but nervous at the same time. I'll be starting a whole new speciality since they don't have any nephrology, which is what I do now.

I have heard good things about New England in the past
don't know if that has changed. I would also throw in a vote for TransTech. After cycling through several other companies, I have finally found a home with Transtech and I am very happy there.
