Anyone take the online Medware test?

Medscribe online test!?
Anybody ever try to apply with Medscribe? I have tried to contact these people repeatedly, taken their online test 3 times, and still I have no idea whats going on! I spoke to the recruiter guy, he said he would try to find out what the problem is, but I have not heard from him in awhile! Anyone else have this same problem?
I took TransTech online test, anybody else? SM
How long until you hear from them?? TIA.
I would not work for OSI because their online transcription test was so cumbersome w/o foot pedal
It took me 15 minutes to transcribe 30 seconds of dictation because so much time was wasted rewinding and fast forwarding with the mouse. I did not want to work for a company that could not even figure out to make the online test reasonable.

QED typing test
Has anyone taken the typing test for QED Transcription? It said begin typing to start test, but there was no cursor to let me know where I was typing. Do you type the paragraph above, and if so, where?
I'm new at this, so any help is much appreciated.
QED typing test
Took it 2 weeks ago and just got hired. Just start typing, copying the text above it. There is an automatic timer in it that will stop you after 3 minutes. If you try to get back into it and can't, call the company and they will reset the test for you. The whole thing is very easy! Good people and good company. Go for it!
QED typing test
I've been working for them for about six weeks and find they are some of the nicest people in the world!!! Pay is average, accounts are good, and they always pay on time. Yes you use their computers so that the 24/7 help line knows exactly how to fix the problem instead of having to guess what's in your computer tha might be a problem they don't know about. Excellent company!!!
typing test
Iread your post as well, and since when does speed fit into the equation? It makes us feel like rats in a trap and PRODUCE!!! -- these are medical records, and accuracy of patient care should be first and foremost, which most of these larger companies don't seem to understand. I have a physical handicap, so of course, I don't type at 120+ words per minute, but I am accurate and my QA is in the vicinity of 99.999%. There are companies that give you so much time to complete the typing test, but if you are concentating, trying to look things up, etc. those factors need to be taken into consideration as well. Thank heavens, I found a company with a good fit and it is not a national - if need be, I have permission to contact the hospital as well for any questions or concerns I might have
MT typing test, SPONGEBOB
I spelled SpongeBob Sponge Bob and I typed ex box instead of Xbox and that is why I failed a typing test for psychiatric work. Holy cow.
It is someone now advertising on the job board for temporary psychiatric help. i have a bazillion years of experience in psyche work.... i am dumbfounded.
QED typing test (another question)
I know this sounds dumb, but do you get to see what you are typing? I didn't see a cursor or anything.
WHAT is Touch Type? All I find is a typing test...nm
?????????????
I thought the written was fairly easy. The typing test (sm)
was difficult for me because the specialties I was tested on were different than what I'd been working on, plus new docs that I wasn't dialed-in to, yet. Also, since the test is on a temporary platform (Express Scribe) I couldn't slow it down, and one doc was pretty fast. STILL, because of that fact I was allowed to take my time, so I looked up every term I wasn't 100% familiar with, and proofread several times. The hospital I was testing on was a state-of-the-art teaching hospital, so that meant lots of new drugs & procedures; thank goodness for the Internet! Although we are paid on production, QUALITY is the most important thing. I do a lot more proofreading than I did at my previous job, and as a result I often work longer hours to make my line count, but I can break up my day any way I need to, so I'm not chained to my desk. As a result I feel a lot more relaxed than I used to, and my blood pressure has gone down, as well.
Free enterprise. You are free to re-educate and retrain, as well!!!!
What's the complaint?!
Usually a spelling test, a punctuation test, and maybe 3-6 test files to do. Sometimes done using
s
Free sure. There are free on-line fax
services, in fact I used one last week. Most do have limits on how often you can use and how many pages though. You obviously would have to scan pages into a document, but maybe she doesn't have a scanner either.
She could have mailed paperwork back.
I took a test for a company and my foot pedal would work with the test and I had keep going back
over the dictation time and again to get all the words because I couldnt stop and start it by the foot pedal. What can I do about this.
Just took the test myself. No actual dictation to transcribe. Just a written test.
For 13 cpl, I might do it if the dictators aren't a total horror.
I just took the test today - thought it was a great test of MT skills.

Are you on straight typing or VR/typing?

that's why I went with online
I had the same situation. Was being paid about $14.5 w/nighttime differential. Myself and 2 other MTs in the hospital did all the work (out of about 6 total) and were paid the lowest. When they hired someone who supposedly had a lot of experience that did not know basic rad terminology (and I mean this was REAL bad) and typed no more than 12 simple chest/bone reports in a 5-hr day and wouldn't fire her, I quit.
Best move I ever made. Went COBRA for 18 mos. Would never go back. They called about 6 mos later asking if I cd prn (they were 700 reports behind with the 2 other top MTs out) & I told them $20/hr and they wouldn't do it - so no go for me.
on their online app, it says they don't have PT.
where is the online EC
nm
They have ads online, just none on here.
They have ads out all over the internet saying they are hiring, just none on here and I applied. They offered me the position the day after I applied and I got suspicious after I realized they didn't even require me to take any sort of test or anything. I hate that they sent me the equipment BEFORE they gave me this info, but I am going to mail it right back to them, it sounds too shady to me as well.
There is no written test. Must have been a different company. I took their ortho test sm
and it was easy. You had to know your terminology but it was easy to understand AND I used my foot pedal.
Well I tried looking online for information
but there was none of any help. I think that is a sign to decline the offer.
This is for online work...
maybe you have a backlog on C-phone work, but always a shortage with online.
OK- I didn't know they had online AND
C-Phone work. I may still apply....
Thanks...I went online and applied. nm
Online testing
Does anyone else have a problem with online testing for a company, in response to an ad on the job board, before even speaking with a recruiter or person from the company? The ad gives no indication of pay or the shift they are hiring for - do I spend time taking a test and then find out the hours I need are not available? Do I spend time taking a test, then find out the pay is so low and the insurance so high that I would not have applied, had I known this before hand? Does it feel kind of impersonal to take a test without even having had contact with a person? Do you spend time taking the test and hope the hours are what you want or do you just ignore this job posting?
Applying online....
On www.mditrans.net there is a link on the left that says apply online. I don't think there is a link to apply online at the other site, just email/phone numbers if you wish to contact them.
ascripts online
Has anyone heard of them? Thanks for the info.

Two online schools
that have a record of getting their graduates placed in positions at home WITHOUT needing 2 years of experience are:
Andres
MTEC
thanks, I did the online application for TT
hope to hear from them soon.
Not at online companies.
The ads tell all. They all pay between 7 and 9 cpl. Some will pay 10, but I would say they are probably ESL accounts that they can't find anyone to do.
Again: Nowadays this is done ONLINE...sm
What is going on on this boards?
Is this some kind of advertising campaign to buy
BOOKS
for doing MTing?
MTs are pressured to use hot keys (shortcuts) instead of the mouse ,, and not to take one's fingers off the keyboard, especialy when doing VR.
Why should I go and look into my books, wasting all that time?
one can look up these 'slangs' online,
does not mean one is a user.
8-9 cpl for online MTSOs and
with no middle man. 
apply online at medquist
statutory requires no minimum
Medscribe Online....any info?
Just trying to see if this company is legit or not. Do they pay on time? Thank you.
usually, for the online tests, you can download...
the voice file into a file on your computer, then download into Express Scribe player (free online), so you can use your foot pedal instead of the keyboard.
No shortage on my online account
I only work via .wav account right now, so that is ONLY online work. My account has a backlog, and the total amount of minutes on the system for all online accounts awhile ago was about 2900, so I have no idea what's going on with your account, because there's no shortage that I can see.
Another ? about Med. Transcription Corp. & Online App.
Hi,
They ask what is your preferred specialty and preferred work type as well as most difficult specialty and work type.
What are they referring to when they say work type? I'm confused. Don't understand what they are referring to.
Thanks.
You can file a complaint online at www.bbb.org
.
I have made 3 complaints with the online BBB and it
did not cost a cent. It never hurts to try.
I sent them my resume and took their online tests...
they e-mailed me and said I did extremely well on the tests. Then I took the online transcription test. I told them ahead of time that in my 15 years of transcribing I did maybe 5 OP reports and they said that was fine. I have NO experience in them whatsoever. One of the test reports was an OP which I failed miserably. The other 2 reports I did fine on. However, they did not hire me and I have to believe it was solely on that one OP report because all they could tell me was I did well on MOST of the transcription test reports. Oh well...I have heard a lot of good about them though apart from running out of work.
Turbotax online, you don't have to buy software

I use a combination of online and books
I do radiology and have 4 Stedmans - radiology, medical and surgical equipment, cardiovascular and pulmonary, and ortho. I had a big drug book when I was typing acute care, but found that it was WAY too cumbersome and so used Medline Plus for drugs. I can't do without my Dorlands online, but if you go to dorlands.com, you have to pay for a subscription, so I used mercksource.com, clicked on Medical Dictionary and it takes you to Dorlands, and that page is in my Favorites. Of course, the reason I like radiology is that 99% of the time you're typing the same thing over and over and you rarely have to look anything up! But it's that 1% that'll get ya.
Yes, you can also print them from Utilipro online. nm

Online Externship needed
I am a transcription student looking for an online company that offers an externship. I have to complete an externship in order to graduate, but need to do so online, and am having trouble finding an online company that would be willing to take me in. I have looked at multiple sites for transcription companies but still feel like I am lost. Does any one know: Are there any companies offering online externships?
has anyone used the Keystrone online application?
I tried submitting it but it only brings me to a blank browser page.
