Care to elaborate on that a little more - sm
Is this the only job you've ever had?? I have interviewed for many jobs in my lifetime, some I was interested in, some I was not. Some that started at $20,000 and others starting at $60,000. I have never thought any questions were strange. The questions that you find strange are probably to weed out what kind of person you are, what kind of situations you can handle, etc. It's a lot easier, I think, than coming right out and asking the obvious questions. Heck, even Red Lobster asks "odd questions" during their interview process, such as, "if you were walking down the street and you THOUGHT you recognized someone across the street, but you weren't sure, what would you do or say?"
A lot of recruiters are generally screening for potential hires before passing them along to the person that does the actual hiring and has more information about particular positions. So in the incident you stated above, that particular recruiter may not necessarily have that information.

Thanks.
I've never had a problem with my pay check at Medware. Care to elaborate? nm
Transcend interview today. Anyone care to elaborate on the ins and outs?
Their ad said Acute Care Transcriptionists and VR editors, so I am assuming that they do have some straight typing positions, right? I know waiting 120 days for benefits is a bomber, but I need something else like right now. How is the pay, incentives, communication, platforms, etc.
Heard Keystrokes was getting better benefits, medical insurance etc.. Anyone care to elaborate? I
ready for a change. 
You really need to quit yelling!! (nm)
Oh my!
Your previous posts with yelling(& in mind's eye

You dont think the yelling of MRMT in a post above
x
Again, YOUR mind set reads me as yelling. I post
childhood that you see everything as criticizm and yelling. That is not my mind set when I am posting. I am posting with the voice of urgency so not another day is wasted. If you want to read me as kicking others when down, criticizing, yelling, acting superior that is on you, not as I intended.
Quit yelling. Don't assume they haven't asked. nm

That website tells me a lot - NOT

Do you always believe what your employer tells you?
I worked for a local company and transcribed university hospital and VA reports. The company was pretty busy - 100 MTs across the country and the owner whined all the time about how he couldn't make ends meet and couldn't pay MTs more - blah, blah, blah - but I certainly never got any tissues out during these meetings. We found out from the bookkeeper later that the company charged and got18 cents per line and that was 6 years ago. Then he increased his charge to a large account the next contract bid and lost it and and didn't have the guts to lay off by senority and just let everyone keep working with promises they were seeking new accounts that didn't happen very quickly at all while we were all out of work and scrapping to find what we could. It is called GREED.
Agree, unless OP tells them, they will never know.

In my opinion, take what MQ tells you with
x
it tells you your tier rate
on the sheet that comes with thepacket. If you are a Tier 2 like me when I wanna be a Tier 3 I have to test. That's for everyone. I don't know about new hires as SE's are changing to new hire with 8 or 16 or 24 hour work week. Maybe an SE can answer this who has the packet, I am full time.
that tells me some people don't know how to use their brain.

Control I tells me I have no right to access (sm)
Isn't it that way for all? I'm new at this.
This just tells me that this service owner does not know how
to handle her money. This 30-day thing or 45-day thing is because they do not have the money in the bank to pay. Every GOOD service owner should have at least two entire pay periods in the bank for payroll. They should not wait until they are paid by their customers. Bad bad business. I would never work for a company that withheld pay ever again. Yes, I have BTDT! I think we all have learned the hard way.
if noone tells her? Will she keep repeating her sorry work
ed
Oh yeah...I can beat that one...How about the IT guy who tells who...
that the company has massively overhired on the account that you were just hired for. Hmm...could that be the reason why I have no money to buy my kids any Christmas gifts this year???!!! 9 months to go and I will never go near this transcription bullcrap ever again!!! This is my last Christmas ever again that I can't buy my kids any Christmas gifts!!!
This is what I am leaning toward. This is what my heart tells me.
I guess it is my brain that is all confused. Your help here is truly appreciated, it echos that small voice we are supposed to listen to in hard times....
your name "just me" tells me how minute you feel,
WHO in the world would call themselves, Just Me. Like I am a nobody; a brainless unimportant to be hear is a Just me.
I read the article, it states exactly what the company always tells us...
that they offshore a small percentage of their work, and that it will never take the place of their domestic MLS. I love working at Transcend.
For someone that doesn't work at Transcend, you sure have gone to a lot of trouble to find the article and continue posting about it. Any other issues?
When a company tells you you'll tripple your line count

You put it in all caps. You need to calm down. Caps means yelling.
Liar is slander and I hope you did not use your real initials.
Could someone maybe elaborate on why they are

Can anyone elaborate on the
mean stuff this woman did? I have been in contact with her via email and from what I understand after the 45-day waiting period, then checks come every 2 weeks. Did I misunderstand that? Also, she does pay gross line, but I'm not sure 6-7 cpl works out to be 10-11 cpl as she has stated to me. Any more information on her, especially the meaness!, would be appreciated.
Can you elaborate?
I am actively searching for employment and anything you want to share will certainly be helpful to me. Thank you!
Can you elaborate?
How did you determine there was a discrepancy? If it's just the lag time, that doesn't mean there is a problem with 'lines being counted' per se, only with the amount of time until the information is available. I'd really like to know because I have not had a problem...
Can you elaborate?
Please tell us why .... tell us the positives. Want to know.
Please elaborate
I used to work there and thought it was the pits. Crappy accounts with very heavy ESL. Nasty emails from a VP whose alter ego was a typing cat (or was it a dog?) or some such nonsense. QA person with superinflated ego. Newbs promoted to QA in months (and by newbs I mean new to MT, not just new to the company). I could go on and on. Nobody knew anything about the benefits and I don't even know if they had a human resources dept or not. Please do tell how they have suddenly become great, and I'm not being sarcastic.
can you elaborate?

ELABORATE PLEASE!!
Seriously? Please give me some details if you don't mind because I have just started with them, but have had major computer issues and am thinking of throwing in the towel. Which team were you on? I hate the fact that the recruiter hired me for clinical when she didn't even know it was acute care/hospital work or she lied! I must admit, I have the same feeling you do. I have only been working for them about three weeks and it seems like three years!!!
elaborate...
You complimenting or complaining? OP makes perfect sense to me.
Please elaborate....
All you say is, no good...all bad and ugly.
That doesn't offer the OP (or any of the rest of us who'd like to also know) any information whatsoever to enable him/her to make a decision on whether or not the company would be good or bad for THEM.
Your post is of no value to the OP or the rest of us who are looking.
I'm asking that if you have any information on the company on WHY you say it's no good or bad and ugly, would you please elaborate on that?
What is bad and ugly to YOU may not be what others consider to be the same.
to elaborate...
Upon being hired I was quoted line rates, counts, etc. These turned out to be false and the recruiter informed me she was not a recruiter so I shouldn't hold her accountable for misquoting them to me. Their platform does not give you anyway to track your progress or verify work that you have done. You can check line counts but there is no way to go back and check what work you have done. So when my line count actually went down by 50 lines while I was logged off eating lunch, that sent up yet another red flag. And with the platform there was no way for me to go back and manually check each report. Lots of miscommunication and half truths and the recruiter and trainer will tell you completely conflicting things about how things work there as well. I took a job with them against the recommendations of many, many MTs on here. Check some older posts. Looks like they were right. I didn't stay long. Hope that gives some insight.
Elaborate, please
They just requested a phone interview with me, and I'd love more info about the company, etc. TIA.
can you please elaborate?

30+ need to elaborate.
I love it there. Of course, anything that is said positive about any company is completely ripped apart by the posters on this board that there is really no use in saying anything.
Could you elaborate why? Low pay etc
Just curious as I was contemplating applying
