9-11 cpl. PRN status is 7.5 cpl. From what I heard recently, they are trying to lower their MT pay expense (not investment), so if you ever were to get off 9 cpl it would surprise me.

That's probably most of them except for the top 5-7 that advertise over and

Yes, we DO advertise for MT's!
Why do you thik it's so? It's because we are getting new accounts each and every week. How do you like them apples? It's because we have very high standards and have to replace those who can't cut it. Its because we LOVE giving people work when they are in need of work to earn a living for their families, and we have plenty for them to make a very good living. We have a huge recruiting team because we are always in search of the best, the brightest, the most ethical, the most honest, the hardest working and the most successful of all the MT's around. We are NOT interested in those who spend hours chating in various gripe boards when you should be typing. It clearly explains why either you are NO longer here, or why you couldn't get here in the first place.
They sure advertise like crazy!
Hope its cuz they have lots 'O work?
They advertise they start at 8 cpl
and go to 10, so you know this one has a few wires crossed upstairs. n
Trying to Advertise my letter...
in the Toledo Blade myself. They told me that the advertising managers will have to review my article and decide if they will let me do it. I don't know what it will cost to do it, but I am sure going to try!!!!
I will send it to Lou Dobbs now.
Transhealth-They used to advertise all the sm
time here for MTs, haven't seen an ad in forever. Wonder why?
They seem to advertise a good bit .... SM
often on MTJobs.com which is where their current ad is.
The good ones don’t advertise? Then why, tell me
when I looked at the listings for jobs at only the 10th one down I found an ad from Transcend? I guess they have to go over to the bad companies, right for advertising?
Email the website where they advertise for MTs - sm
They will remove them from future advertising as they are reputable website.
I have not seen them advertise in a long time.
I have never heard anything negative about them to my recollection though.
I have not seen them advertise in a long time.
I know their recruiter left and I really have not seen any ads. They do have a banner on this site though.
When I advertise, I give all that information as
well as all information related to the job.
I worked for one company once that had their pre-canned ads. I hated them because they told nothing. They did give their website, but it was way old.
I agree that all companies that advertise for MTs need to give their website
How did you come to apply with them? I have never heard of them or seen them advertise.
Wish you the best though
Could someone please explain to me how Focus can advertise for a QC
when they just laid off a bunch of people and told them they had nothing to offer them but transcription?
P.S. - I don't even know why they are allowed to advertise on this board because....sm
their US QA gets audited by guess who??? The team leaders which are not from the US and are based overseas....lovely, eh?
We want companies to advertise - not drive them away.
Please do not mock their offers.

They will advertise and talk hourly, but sm
when the actual offer comes, it is BY LINE ONLY. M.L. is posting on any web site that will have him about his job openings and they are now so desperate they will take an MT with only 8 months experience.
does Amphion advertise that they now offshore?
nm
Was I dreaming or did a certain company advertise for ESL MTs at 15 to 20 cpl a week or so ago and
now it's suddenly 9 to 13 cpl? I tried to take their test and one of the questions they asked was what you were making. 
Maybe I was dreaming. I copied the ads I applied to and that one seems to be missing.
Instead of only applying with companies that advertise heavily,
try Googling for transcription companies, perhaps in your home state, and go to their websites. They usually have a way to apply on their website, and they won't be receiving 300 resumes the same day yours arrives. Send your resume to several and you might hit the timing right with one or two, or perhaps they will keep your resume for when they do have an opening.
Did you see that they want 9 test files done??!! And they advertise as a Global
s
I though offshore companies could not advertise on this site?
Guess I am wrong about that.
I never see any postings about Accuscribe of SC. They evidently don't advertise (sm)
for help much, that could be a good thing.
Any info?
http://www.ustranscription.com/....they advertise on a different job board...nm
;o)
I personally don't advertise in the Yellow Pages because I was getting a lot of sm
calls from housewives who know how to type *real good*. Or people who wanted to do this because they saw in a magazine that you can make a lot of money in your free time!
Why do companies advertise for jobs if they have no work?
I lost my job with a big offshoring company a couple of months ago. I knew it was coming so I started applying for jobs and sending my resume for posted jobs. The company that hired me responded to my resume submission within 2 HOURS and I was hired the next day. They had an immediate need, speciality I love, good pay. Now, a couple of months later I am getting calls and e mails from companies that I applied to months ago. One recruiter said, I don't know when we received your application, it was probably 90 days ago. During this same time period I have seen the Q advertise twice, claiming they have steady work (????) Of course, after reading posts here I would not even consider any offer from them. A lady from Spheris e mailed and ask that I let her know a time I could interview some time in the next several weeks.
I don't get it. If you do not have work, why are you posting jobs? I would consider this a big red flag.
Transcend does. If you look, they advertise on the Jobs board but they admit that
they send work overseas.
They advertise on the "other" jobs board. Lots of posts about them here. nm

Just curious why Focus Infomatics is being allowed to advertise here. Totally Indian-ran.
New Pay Scale??
I am curious. Many MQ posters have heard about things like 'new pay scales', and I receive no communication whatsoever from MQ. Is it because I don't subscribe to their e-mail? Is this where this information comes from? I mean, they have my e-mail address, but I have never gotten any communication from anyone but an occasional proofer note.
Pay scale.
How much do you make an hour? I require $30 to $40 a hour.
If the pay scale for MT2 is .07 to .09 CPL, then
how do you know which you get, .07, .08, or .09? I currently make .08. If I get a decrease to .07, then, well..........
about their pay scale
Top pay with Trans Tech is 8.5 cpl.
Pay scale
They offer 6 cents per line. Way less than what I get for straight transcription, but I'm just curious as to how much more a straight voice Editor can really produce. If I thought it would be at least the same money and if I knew for sure they were a reputable company, I would do it, but I haven't been able to get much information.
The pay scale is different...sm
I worked for them for about three months but only 12 hours a week. Their payscale really doesn't work well unless you work full time. You couldn't ask for a nicer bunch of folks. You can e-mail me if you like.
pay scale
They may not have job listings for US MTs but they DID have a screening site where you could find out how much your MT skills would be worth with Acusis (in India)...36,000 rupees a year.
(Yes, I did the conversion. It's less than $9000 US.)
MQ pay scale
They run in tiers'' with Tier 3 being the highest topping out at 10 cents. There are very few making top money; most are long-time employees from other companies that were absorbed (bought up)by MQ. I have known several hired in the past couple of years and looks like 7 cents a line is the norm for new hires.
Raises? Certain criteria must be met. I wouldn't count on them.
First,you must not have more than 15% going to QA which will be even more difficult with the national pooling. This rule in itself pretty much kicks everyone out. That 15% doesn't allow for circumstances beyond your control,i.e,dictator effect, etc. They just look at the percentage submitted to QA, if it is more than that, no raise; the reasons for submission make NO difference. Second,you must have 98% accuracy which shouldn't be a problem if you are a good MT. Mainly the QA submission is what keeps everyone from getting raises because MQ doesn't subtract from the 15% the reports sent for unknown doctors not listed on the roster, dictator effect, etc.; you know, all the things that are beyond the MT's control. LASTLY, there is a freeze on all raises for now, so that in itself should be a big warning sign to you. If you do decide to hire on, get AS MUCH as you can walking through the door as I seriously doubt you will see any raises down the road.
Health insurance runs around $135 a month for the employee for best plan. The other plan is somewhat cheaper but I believe it is more of a ''health spending plan rather than insurance.
pay scale
I did QA work, not MT work, so I'm not sure. I think it was around 8.5 cpl, but not positive on that. Give a call to the recruiters, they'll let you know for sure.
What's their pay scale like?

How is the pay scale
Do they compare with other companies or will they pay more for experience? Thanks for posting, it is a big help to hear good things about a company that has not had much good said about it.
KS pay scale
i looked quickly but don't find my notes on the interview with this company which was about 2 hours of me interviewing THEM. So i can't address that point now. Maybe they've changed something, maybe i'm mixing them up with another company(but don't think so). Just ask plenty of questions so YOU know the answers to the questions. If the answers satisfy you, nevermind what i or anyone else says. Good luck!
Pay scale
There are those who only make 7 cpl for them on clinic notes. That's why I didn't send them the test I took.
pay scale
You'd better believe it. I've been an MT since 1984. Sucks, doesn't it!?
Pay scale - sm
Yes, and you can BET that the facilities are not paying LESS per line/report during all this...so, where does all that money go? Certainly not to us....
Pay scale same for everybody
No, I don't think the MDI people should be brought down, I think the Transcend people should get the same rate and the same options as you are getting. What I think will happen is you will get your rate for a period of time then they will drop you down somehow. I really can't see them paying the MDI MTs more than their own employees for the long-term
amphion pay scale
There are 3 levels of employees:
Level 1is clinic, ER, urgent - start out at 7.4 cpl work up to 7.7 cpl
Level 2 is Hospital H&P, consults start 7.8 cpl work up to 8.1 cpl
Level 3 is All Hospital/ESL start at 8.25 cpl work up 8.5 cpl
after 13,500 you can earn an extra 0.25 cpl for incentive pay. This is 65 chara line count w/spaces. 10 an hour while in training.
Other places pay more.
I'd rate them a 7 on a scale 1-10 NM
They have a low pay scale. They treat you like
The owner is nice enough, but she does not like to pay until her client pays her and she will make you sign a paper stating you agree to that. Just be careful what you sign. You might like it if you like EMDAT. There is no training. You train yourself through a website she gives you for EMDAT. Again pay is low. 
Webmedx pay scale for VR
Anybody know? Transcend pays about 50-60% of your typing line rate, which I think is really bad. Anybody know about Webmedx's rate for VR?
Very low and weird pay scale, Keep looking. nm
xx
I turned them down after seeing the pay scale
I did send them an email and explain that my expectations for transcribing all work types in acute care would be 10 cpl. They start out at 6. That's a canyon of difference!
It also bothered me that pay is based on which shift you work. It seems to me that goes into the gray area of IRS guidelines of control for employee versus IC status. I need to work split shifts. Also, I am more inclined to work when there is work and if there is no work during my shift, how can I make money? I asked if they could negotiate some of these issues with me and they stopped communicating with me. I'm glad I went with my instinct and did find someone else who gives me the flexibility, line rate and work types I wanted.
