ExText Users: Can we look up line counts per report?
NM
8cpl
I hear the pay starts at 8cpl so how is that above average?
pay even at 8cpl is
insulting anymore if you have mega experience. All these companies want tons of experience but want to pay junk....they are better off going to india....come on we live in the US. The sad thing is that these companies probably charge the clients 20cpl.
They pay older longtimers 8CPL and

Also, you will be paid only half that when you are switched over to VR, which all accounts will be in the coming months.  Also, no incentives for hiring date after November. 


anyone hiring at better than 8cpl with 1 yr of experience?
I have 1 year of experience as an MT. I would like to know if it would be possible to find something making better than 8cpl or at least a position with benefits at that line rate.
question...is 8cpl with spaces fair market pay
.
No experience, but was told that work is assigned, no pools, and it's still 8cpl as an IC. nm

Anyone out there know of MTSO's using Vianeta and need out?
for new baysribe users,

Thank you all !! (MedRite users)

thanks again for responsing.


MedRite XL users - please tell about this platform!?? sm

I haven't worked on the MedRite XL for Windows platform. I  did work on the DOS platform years ago.   To be honest, I forget how it was.  After a while, all of these platforms run together.


Could you tell ME if it is user friendly, productive, can you look up patient reports, search for certain dictator's reports, etc.  Any info is greatly appreciated.


 


Thank you so much for your input.

eScription users, what other software do you really like?
eScription accounts slower so I'm looking for may some other type of software to use.  If you love eScription, what other software do you really like?  I'd prefer something Word-based.   Thanks for any ideas!
Emdat users--have a question, please sm
I am trying to test for a company and followed their instructions to download and install Emdat, which went fine. After installing it, however, Emdat has been stuck on Please Wait, Checking for Upgrades for over an hour now. I have tried it twice, with the same result.

Is this normal? I don't want to email the employer that there is a problem unless I have covered the bases.

Thanks!
Question for MedRite users
If this accurate, if you have Med-Rite open (MS-WORD based) and you minimize Med-Rite and go into a MS Word document in your PC, that you have lists save on, you cannot do this as MedRite freezes???
Question on VR board. Any Dragon users?

Current Vonage/Dictaphone users question (sm)

I have been using Vonage with a Dictaphone for 2 years now - with no problem at all.


Recently, in the last few days, the phone line goes dead several times in the day - and occasionally the foot pedal stops working.


I called Vonage, and they reset everything and said I should not be having a problem.  I found out other MT with Vonage who work for us are having the same problem.


Is anyone else having this problem?  We are trying to decide if it is a Vonage problem or not.


 


Thanks for your input.


 


Dictaphone EX Text users. I have a question I need help with on Technical Board.. Thanks

This company sounds great, but they don't accept satellite users. :(

Other than that, from what I can see, they provide equipment/software, etc.  Sounds like a really great company.  I would apply if they could look over the satellite situation. I have had no problems with three other companies using satellte.


9cpl and 11 cpl for weekends. Use ExText. My ExText version wasn't compatible with theirs

Can I asked when you applied? I applied a few weeks ago
and never heard a word and I have over 16 years of experience. I applied because I got a recommendation from a friend of a friend who loves working there..Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get anymore details other than that.  I'm all for even one positive at this point on this frustrating job search. Good luck to you though and check back with us to tell us how the interview went etc. Thanks
No. I applied, but I've applied SM

at a lot of places lately.  I got an e-mail from a lady whose name starts with an M, but she didn't identify her company in the letter.  She had my resume on the bottom of her e-mail, so I know it's someone I applied with, but I don't know which one!!  LOL  I'm thinking it's The Word Pros.  Anyone else apply to The Word Pros and get an e-mail from M?


I'd love to hear information about them as well.


Just Me


HUH? I just applied with them.

Thank you to all who applied.
Great responses and experiences. Thanks.:)
Thank you! I have applied but sm
haven't heard anything yet. Just curious.
Is that why you applied?

just applied
Good luck to you.  The test was easy.  I did 100%. 
Just applied also and took
the tests.  Hopefully this a good company.  Still waiting to hear from Keystrokes.....  For being desperate to find transcriptionists for their radiology accounts, they sure take a long time getting back to you!
No, I actually just applied there myself. nm

Anyone applied to JLG? Ad says they need 100 MTs. (sm)

I have to assume they are growing big time to need this many MTs added to their work force.



I can't find any recent info on this company.  Any help appreciated.


Applied
I agree, there's nothing to lose. I already applied. As well as being an MT I also do insurance claims typing and it really isn't that hard. You just have to be able to type verbatim including um's and ah's. I get paid by the page now so to me it seems the pay may be actually better than what I'm getting now.
Anyone else applied to JLG? (sm)
Was told there were some changes and they would call and talk to me before the official offer letter was sent.  The lady I interviewed/tested with was very pleasant and I am guessing very busy.  Anyone else have input?   I know I can't be the only one who applied. 
Actually, I had never applied to them...
or even heard of them before I received the e-mail, and I have been happily employed for 6 years for the same company, so it is a mystery.
When I applied with TRS the -
recruiter couldn't even explain how pay rate was determined.  He told me is personal life story, which I thought was very unprofessional.  I found a job elsewhere. 
I just applied
I just applied there myself.  Do you know if the insurance is affordable there?  They sound like they have good benefits from looking at their website.
I applied too
I haven't heard back and at first thought the pay was low.  Then after I read the description of the work, it sounded too easy to get paid much more than that.  Let me know if you hear back from them.. Thanks.
I must have applied to at least 20 of
the wrong companies as well - looked for about 6 months - IC or employee - didn't matter - 25+ years experience MTing and 5 QA, and best offer was about 8.75 cents...with huge daily requirements to hit that mark - one offer for IC at 10 cents which never materialized - company folded. Lots of 7 to 8 cents per line offers - several 6 cents per line - needless to say, I stayed with my day job! To me, the 10 cpl and 11 cpl offers are like unicorns - I have looked and looked, but never found one and am definitely thinking they are mythical.
I applied....
for the pathology position.  Never heard a word!  I have 12 years pathology experience, so I know it wasn't because of lack of experience!
When I applied
They wanted this ridiculous itemization of where I worked as an IC over the past few years. Hello?

When I run into that type of red tape, I 'run'. (Because it's a sign of how they 'might' be if you were worked with them).

I don't have a problem providing a resume, and testing, but that was not enough to move the process along.
I have applied to several
I have usually always heard back.  But I don't go by the job seekers board and found out who  is advertizing for employment   I just read the company board and apply to the company I find has the better reviews.   It just seems to me that they are all always hiring. 
I just applied also!
I have never heard of this company, but orthopedics is my favorite specialit7. Sounds like a new company to me.
I Applied
I applied with them over a week ago and never got any response. I have 7 years of MT experience which included dermatology, so I'm not sure why I never heard anything.
Have you applied?
Hi Little Bear,

Thank you. Believe me, I am thanking my lucky stars in heaven for this one. I needed the benefits so badly and they just seemed like a wonderful place to work. I will definitely let you know how it turns out. Have you applied there?

I got one too and just applied! sm
They said the list was from AHDI.
I just applied
and missed 2 on the test.  I do not know if that is good or bad.
Anyone who applied
for the jobs posted recently by p.r.n. Transcription or Phoenix Medcom heard back from them yet?  I applied the same day they posted the jobs, but have not heard back and yet I am a very well-qualified transcriptionist.
I applied but don't know anything either
/
We must have applied for the same job.
nm
I applied too.
I got the same 2 emails and was wondering the same thing. I am thinking it is a scam.
I applied for the ......sm
clinic ad when it first came out, and was offered a position yesterday for acute care TU-SAT, which I gladly accepted. I start training soon. This is my second time applying with them. You have 5 years experience over me in acute care so hopefully you will hear something soon. Good luck
I applied

I got a phone call a day later and talked to a real nice lady.  She sent me an e-mail as well telling me more about SoftScript saying that they are adding 12 more accounts and are very busy.  They said that I would need a WAV pedal which I do not have so I would have to invest in one because they do not supply that.  I don't know how much money this entails.  They claim to keep work here in the U.S.


I have read on this board that SoftScript has a picky QA staff.  I am not sure that is a bad thing, it can be but not always.  If I am doing something wrong, I want to know so I can stop. 


I myself am definitely going to keep SoftScript in mind but I had applied to 1 more I have not heard from yet.  I will give them a few more days and make a decision then.
