long it takes to hear from someone at TM? I sent an email and resume on Friday, and still have no response. I know its not my resume, so was just getting worried! Does it take a week or so to hear from them? Thanks for any replies!

This like an employment agency. They are HORRIBLE about getting back with you. I tested and passed with flying colors. They got back to me two months later with an offer.

I signed up with them, but they never contacted me because I told them I refused to work every weekend. I think I can be choosy with 20 years experience. Don't they think MTs have a life outside their work?

I will email you
Transcription Matchmaker? (sm)
I read about this company in Advance. Anyone have experience with them? The article said they help you find the best company for your level of experience and interests; the MT companies pay the fees, not the MT.
Transcription Matchmaker?
Just wondering if they helped.

If my statement has no merit...why was the string deleted where people indicated that they were unprofessional. The posts did not include any names or any other violations of this site. Why did you delete this?
Another string of posts were deleted that questioned why the above-referenced posts were deleted...you deleted this as well. Why? Why didn't you answer this question in your reply?
This is your site and you can do whatever you please, but it's not fair for your to delete negative posts about certain companies and then leave other negative posts about other companies in place.
What prompted you to delete the TM posts on yesterday, yet you leave the posts on Omniscribe today? You are very inconsistent.

Anyone know if Transcription Matchmaker is a legit place to go through for a job?

I worked with Teri at one point, while working with a large national, and at that time she was really only looking for MTs for the company I worked for (I no longer work there).
I called her after leaving the aforementioned national company, faxed my resume, and never heard from her again. This honestly bothered me as I had worked with her for a few years and to just be ignored was frustrating and quite frankly I have yet to figure out why she didn't try to MATCHMAKE me - I've over 35 years experience as an MT/QA and years ago was a MTSO so that wasn't the problem.
I guess you will have to make your decision based on your personal experiences. Every body, at one time or other, has something good or something bad to say.

has anyone tried the transcription matchmaker on this website? I hope posting on this board was okay.
Has anyone used Transcription Matchmaker?

Has anyone used the services of Transcription Matchmaker that has their banner advertised here? Any pros and cons to using such a service to find a transcription position? I just sent my resume and wondering how they are to work wth and/or how much help they are. They do not charge for their services and I liked that idea. So afraid of changing jobs as I have been with the same company around seven years, but do not like all the changes going on so thinking the "grass has to be better on the other side."
Thanks! 
Has anyone used Transcription Matchmaker?
Do they charge you for their service? I take it this is like an employment agency?
Has anyone tried those MT matchmaker services?..sm
I have been looking around at MT companies for months now and only apply to those that I would really want to work at, including being able to do work in my specialites, days/hours I prefer to work, pay rates that are acceptable to me (when stated in the ad), etc. So there really aren't many that I have sent to overall, but I am flabergasted how many do not return my emails or email back saying that specific position is filled, but would I consider a different position/shift, etc... like a bait and switch before you're even hired.
I have over 12 years of experience and a decent resume of work done in the past for multiple types of transcription services and also includes that I've been with one national company my whole career so far which shows my loyalty and dedication, so I don't know why I'm not appealing to these companies.
Has something changed in the industry? Several years ago I was going to leave my national and sent out resumes and every single one of them called or emailed back with an offer within the day... now, there's nothing. Are the services just overwhelmed with resumes or are they shying away from experienced MTs or what's going on?
So my question is... Have any of you tried those matchmaker services where they match you up with companies looking for MTs with your skills? Do they work? Are they legit? Do they cost? Just because the companies are registered with them, does that mean they are legit companies, or is this a sort of an anything-goes type of thing?
Just wondering what other's experiences have been and whether it's worth trying something like this. I put my resume on this board years ago and got spam, spam, spam, and no responses, so won't do that again. Any other suggestions? TIA!!
Transcription Matchmaker
Yes, my advice is to STAY AWAY from them! Very unprofessional and do not do the research that should be done in order to place MT's with various companies, in particular Breitner Transcription. Stay away from the too! Both my friend and had absolutely terrible experiences with these two companies!!!!
Transcription Matchmaker
Has anyone ever used this service and if so, how did it work out for you? I'm thinking of trying it and was wondering who they worked with and how successful they are at placing MTs and editors.
TIA

Any updated information on Transcription Matchmaker? I have sent them a resume twice, once about five months ago and again lately, but I never hear anything from them - maybe one email the first time I sent them my resume but that was after hounding them a few times. Anything good lately?  I can only find old posts.
Transcription Matchmaker
So disappointing, isn't it?? Sounded like such a good idea and good company.....oh well. Thanks for the response.
Transcription Matchmaker
It would have been nice to have only taken one test, instead of 10, and find a job that way. But, will go the old-fashioned route and apply one by one.........thanks for all the posts! It's appreciated! Doesn't say much for Transcription Matchmaker however! Oh well.... 
Maybe look into transcription matchmaker?
They seemed legit when I talked with them. They do your interview and testing and then match you up with potential employers. Supposedly you only have to take one test. Granted, I did not end up using their services because I found out about them after I had already tested for the job I have today :) Good luck. They didn't want any money, so I think definitely worth looking into. However . . . if someone has had a bad experience with them, please do post about it, as I am only one experience and being that I did not use the service myself, it might be a good idea to hear from someone who actually used their services.
Transcription Matchmaker
I found out they hire for the same companies that post here. What's the point? I would be afraid they would send my resume to a place I already worked - no thanks!
Transcription Matchmaker, MDI and 2Scribe
Does anyone know anything about these companies? I have two years of experience and am looking for a change from the current company that I am working for. Any helpful input would be great! Thanks!
Do you mean Transcription Matchmaker? They're a job finding

Looking for updated experiences with Transcription Matchmaker
I've scanned the archives and seen old posts where people gave their experiences with Transcription Matchmaker. Any current reports? Any folks who've had a positive placement experience with them?
Transcription Matchmaker stopped working w/ Cbay
Heard same feedback from other MTs.
I'd be interested in hearing anyone's experience with Trans Matchmaker, too...
.
I have no main squeeze companies and Transcription Matchmaker isn't even a sponsor
so I cannot see how you justify that I show any kind of favoritism to that company. You are grasping at straws to put down this site.
