I applied and with them over 18 months ago - sm
they sent me a test....which was awful. Needless to say I did not kill myself to finish it. The pay was good, BUT unless you were a miracle worker you would not make much. The test was a speech of some sort with a guy at a podium talking, the recorder a million miles away, and the clarity sucked. I had a zillion blanks in one minute, so I figured (A) I wouldn't pass the test and (B) if this is what I'd be transcribing, forget it. Of course they may have a better test now, but when I did tested it was very bad.
I applied with one company several months
ago and was told that they do not have permit to have employees in my state. Maybe that is the reason.
Are you my twin? LOL I do the same!
We have people that announce every little event to the whole crew [insert eye roll].
I, on the other hand, often forget to set myself away for lunch break. :)
Hello to my Twin MT
Hi!!! When I read your post about working 30 years as MT and making more in 1983 than you do now, I thought WOW this is me. How very strange to find a twin on MT Stars. I too have worked as MT for 30 years and I too was hired for county with my mother working in Accounts Department. She did not actually get me the job in 1978, but it helped that she worked at same hospital. I too had on-the-job training and have never been to an MT Training facility. So hello Twin sister MT.
Glad to meet you. SO
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
TransTech and low/no work for months and months _ don't think there are continous holidays LOL
This HORRIBLE low/no work situation has been going on at TT for almost a year now. You can't convince me it is due to Memorial Day. Are holidays now assigned in this world to being daily.
That is an excuse these companies use in these no work situations, but it is due to their OVERHIRING. Holidays just come on a daily basis, but LOW WORK/NO WORK is happening and has happened going on a year now at TransTech. Always asking to flex into the middle of the night, EVERY weekend, etc.
The TT mgmt checks are NEVER affected, tho, so they can continue to HIRE EVERY MT who gives them a call, and create a NO WORK situation for all of us. The newbie MT's are cheering at first, but then realize that it hit them in the paycheck, too, and very soon it did!!!!!!!
My company has been low on work for months and months..sm
Tired of getting the same ol' message that things will pick up. I remember the days of bonuses, making money and being able to pay my bills! I am also wondering what is going with these companies not having work. Is everybody sending work overseas?
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.
Okay, thanks. I had applied and now sm
have three other offers but was trying to hold out until I heard something from this company. I guess they don't need the help as ASAP as their ad would imply.
Just applied to MDI...sm
and got a response that they are hiring for night, evening, and weekend positions - not what I was looking for - so maybe everyone is trying the same thing, to only work days. I am running out of work as a hospital employee. It's very frustrating, so instead of waiting for work there, I am trying to accrue more IC accounts and going off on my own...at least then I can dictate my own hours. Thanks for the info!
applied
sent resume never heard assumed that I didn't have what they wanted, although they seemed to be looking for everything.

I just applied with KS and sm
received a very nice e-mail from them on January 22 that said they absolutely DONOT hire part-time MTs.
I also applied there
took the test, did amazing according to the person on the transcription part, missed 1 also on the written, but then they would not accept my schedule. GO FIGURE. Tired of trying.
Where have you all applied?
It is crazy how they treat us. I was applying like crazy last summer and gave up. The stress involved was horrible.
I do believe that the companies have A LOT of applicants lately and the only way to get noticed is to keep e-mailing or calling them.
I guess it is the nature of the beast.

No, I never even applied with them
I got a job at another company right away. Honestly, I never even finished the program. I got most of the way through it and then I had to find income and pay my mortgage. I got lucky enough to find the first company I worked for. It was good experience, pay was peanuts, and God bless my mother who loaned me some $$ to actually pay the bills.
I just applied, thank you nm!!!!!
skdjaslfkdj
I applied too...sm
have many years of hem/onc experience, but no call back as of yet either. Let's hope we hear something soon!
when I applied to them..
They sent me a breakdown of how they pay, and it is really bad, folks. I guess they figure it is Christ-like to work for low wages.
I applied there and...
I took their test and passed it. They wrote me asking when I could do a phone interview, I told them to call me at their convenience, I would be available. Never heard back from them. Applied at another company and got the job. THEN I hear back from Axolotl telling me they were sorry for not getting back to me. I think they found someone, it didnt work out, then they went back to me. I do know you have to pay a deposit for the computer they provide. Just give it a shot :)
I have applied
and Jimmy called me from there yesterday and said someone would be getting in touch with me today or Monday. Do you make your own schedule? Also I am a little confused, is it IC or employee? Site says you get some PTO. How are they about time off for doctor apt. etc? Thanks SO much.
Applied for a job...here is what I got....sm
NET PAY 60-90 days. All work done in June, you will be paid in September, YEAH RIGHT!!!!Anyone who goes for this is setting themselves up to NOT be paid, I have NEVER in all my years as being a MT heard of this nonsense......THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
