Post nicely today. (SM)
That includes no name-calling, no stalking, no harassment, no language, etc.
Everyone can have their opinion.

you put this very nicely...not like "anon/Anon"
TY
Very nicely said CJ and I completely agree with you.
Another MT here who is not associated with MDI or Transcend but wishing you all the absolute best in whatever direction you decide to go in!!!!
Amen, nicely said. I love working for MDI, and I don't get q
where these people are coming from. We have not been slow at all. I always get paid on time, and people answer my e-mails. If the people that are negative have valid complaints, I think they should talk to their team leader or a manager at MDI. I have never, ever had a problem with communication.
Their specs on listed on their nicely designed website..

Well you are less than professional. Act like
one if you want a professional response. I am not who responded in the post you just responded to but you certainly are not acting like a professional.
That was a very professional
It is professional to do this
I believe you always should leave a company on good terms. Of course, on the other hand, if work is super low and they wouldn't feel the pinch if you left, I think less than 2 weeks would work. I had to do this at my last job. I gave them a week's notice because I just could not afford to work part time at a company where I was promised full time.
Professional Transcriptions
From Florida, any info from anyone on this company?
focus is not professional
I also work for Focus Infomatics, I mean worked. I have been working for months. They payvery poorly 6.5 cents per line. as compared to other companies, that is very low. Also they trick you into thinking it is a transcription job, then they tell you when you are trained, that you are going to be doing editing, without giving you a choice. I am very disappointed with them. I also thought they were good in the beginning. They are not very professional. I would not recommend this company to anyone who is looking for transcription work.
I would think you would know, pay should never be discussed with anyone - not very professional.

I am not your honey...please be more professional (nm)

Professional tester SM
I feel like a professional tester. Tested for so many companies in the last six months I can't remember all of them - not one answer from any of them.
Just tested for Transcription1 and still have not heard from them either. Anybody have any info on this company?
Just my own professional belief sm
I personally do not think that anyone who is taught English as a second language could ever type or edit American English as well as American English-speaking people that are trained to do so unless he/she has solely devoted his/her life to mastering the craft. Granted, there are many, many Americans who do not use the language properly even a little bit, but these people typically do not become MTs either! I cannot imagine learning Russia as a second language, barely being able to articulate it, and then overseeing a born-and-raised Russian's grammar and punctuation skills. Just my personal opinion, of course. I'm sure there are exceptions...somewhere.
I thought she was professional.
I talked with a recruiter once who talked to me like I was her long lost friend... it was kind of distracting.
I like the way the DR recruiter conducted everything. She was professional and pleasant, but not overly friendly.
lol You just did yourself in, professional recruiter!
Buh-bye.
How wonderfully professional you are!
Is this from the same mouth that threaten LEGAL action for imagining having been called a liar? Calling someone a psycho and ignorant? You neglected to mention the NUMEROUS emails you write to me, not just one! Yes, I'm sure anyone checking this site for suggestions or recommendations as to where to work will find this post helpful. they will realize that we have and maintain such a high standard that loons like yourself cannot possibly ever get hired on. For that, we are blessed and quite happy, and successful I might add. You have doctor friends- seek one out and get help. I pray for you...
to the point and v. professional and well-said.

You would think a professional would use the name of her company sm
and not a moniker to post with, plus like the other poster, I am not sure as a potential employee I would need to know about her 26 surgeries (26?!!!). I think I'll pass.
Sorry, I meant Professional. Thanks
Was in a hurry 
Actually, this is a professional website and
that is probably why they told you not to mock their advertisers. Put youself in their place. If this was your website, would you want MTs to mock your advertisers?
Could the KS RAD MT who stated
below that she has been at Keystrokes for 2 years and makes good money define what good money is? I would like to make sure there is plenty of work to make $$$.
someone stated... c msg
IC only, no benefits, paid by the minute.
I stated
at the beginning of the test that it was not timed and was open book.
Sorry...should have been *It* stated

Please know, as I stated above -
that a USB may NOT be what is required in a job. There are also 9-serial port and 15-serial port pedals. All companies are different and have different requirements. I'd hate for you to buy something you don't need.
I had stated it would not keep them from getting
a job for sure and yes, you are right about the chuckle...but I definitely would love to see a little more professionalism in this field. I think people would take the field more seriously with more professionalism amongst all of us though a few laughs do make the job more interesting. :)
As stated below, have been here for almost
it's stated on both ads.. looks low to me

WOW! VERY well stated!
This is an excellent letter. You made some very valid points, didn't lose your cool and I think you prevailed in your argument. You succeeded in pointing out to AHDI themselves their glaring inconsistencies. I am so proud of you for having the courage to write this and share it with us.
Well stated! sm
You took the words right out of my mouth. I am not yet a CMT but am going to take the exam before the end of the year.
I have a friend who is an ER physician. He has no respect for what MTs do, primarly because his reports are riddled with errors by MTs who 1. Don't care or 2. Do care but do not have the skills to produce an accurate medical record.
Either way, MTs are sometimes viewed as low-skilled labor that is easily replaced. Credentialing can only help to undo some of the damage that has been done to our profession in the past few years.
Again, this is just my opinion. Please don't flame me if you do not agree with my views. We're all in this together and want the same thing. More respect and ultimately more money. Most of us work because we have to. 
Well stated. You get what you pay for...SM
We're talked down to by MTSOs and QA and expected to turn out perfect work while at the same time wages are going lower and lower. What workers in any other line of work would stand for this? Would they care?
FT only, which is usually stated in their ads.
Usually have 2 accounts. The schedule depends on the account, but with KS and most all companies now the schedules run Tu-Sa or Su-Th. If clinic work may not be required to work weekend.
You are not a professional and by far, your post was not an opinion
It is apparent that you possibly are one of those MTs that has to jump around from company to company.
that's professional of her. Isn't one of them taking today off...sm
Was it Kathy or Colleen? Perfect timing, dontcha think?
Professional Dication Associates
Am looking for more info, I know they use Emdat. Has anyone worked for them who can tell me about part time line requirements, hours and in general how they are to work for? Thank you.
Anyone heard of Professional Transcriptions of NW FL
Any info, good or bad?
WHAT? No one holds you back from being professional! OMG!
Talk about utter lack of accountability and responsibility!
You don't have a clue about running a business, the cost of capital, etc.!
You are an angry little person, huh?!
experienced and professional MT poster
You are just wrong. I started over 10 years ago when one could make good money working productivity with bonuses and benefits. The behemoth -- the Walmart of transcription - came in and bought most everyone out and reduced line rates and decimated benefits. All others had to also to stay in business. I have a devil of a time making the same wage I made 10 years ago. I recently left a place because I was making $12 an hour - working as hard as I could (less than 1/2 what I usually make). The HR person called and asked why I left. When I explained, she said those days are over and better get used to it. If a CEO increases productivity and profit -- they get millions. MTs are expected to double their productivity while making about half what they used to with VR. Sorry poster, this is reality. If you have prospered, be thankful, but don't put the blame of the dismal working conditions of transcription on disgruntled workers.
MDI-FL and Cornerstone Professional Services
Could I please hear from anyone who is currently working for MDI-FL or Cornerstone Professional Services. I have searched for both companies, but would like to hear how the people who are still working for these companies like/dislike working for them. Any information would be appreciated...both pros and cons.
Thank you.
Professional Dictation Associates anyone?
Any and all info is appreciated:)
Professional Dictation Associates?
Anyone had experience with them? Archives look positive. I sent a resume and got a quick response back. They want me to test. Curious to know anyone with recent knowledge of them. Thanks!
professional..I know, you're tired. Me too :)

Professional Dictation Associates
I was just wondering if anyone has any input on the company good or bad TIA.
Cornerstone Professional Services
Cornerstone Professional Services is a very bad company to work for. They lie and they have trouble keeping people. Find another company!!!!!
Cornerstone Professional Services
How is this company? Do they pay on time? Is there is enough work? How is the QA staff? How is their platform? How are the owners? TIA
sorry for so many questions, but I like others am looking for a truthful company with stable work that does not, dog me out.
Be professional? lol You're joking, right?
Bottom line......The levels to which I have read of some MTs stooping to on this board does not belie a professional attitude. Personally, the whole thing makes me pretty nauseous.
Perhaps you should turn your nausea towards the declining wages being offered to seasoned MTs, then you might understand why MTs choose to sign on with multiple companies.
You expect MTs to be professional, but in this day and age there is very rarely a professional attitude returned to the worker bee MT.
The MTs are the ones who are trying to remain professional in this unprofessional rat race that transcribing has turned into. I say more power to any MT that has the guts to accept multiple offers and walk away from those that won't be beneficial to your pocketbook. I for one admire you, it's not something I know I could easily do.
