your time is coming . . . easy does it when first hired on with TransTech, of course.

In Reply to: My account is so good, I feel as if I'm cherry-picking with every report.... - No Sour Grapes Here!
Do you think they are going to discourage you on the very first day of hire. NOT.
Obviously, you are one who is getting cherry-picked reports, but your time will come for the difficult dictators just as we all get.
So glad you enjoyed your first day.

It is easy to get hired at TransTech - if you have experience

Recently hired on and was told those of us coming on now (sm)
were eligible to participate immediately in the 401. As far as the matching, their ad states discretionary so I assume it is dependent upon profit margin or something. At least they are up front about it and not telling you they match and then say, Oops, no more like MQ did.
My contract (was just recently hired for a new acct coming on) does not list any benefits for part-t
It only gives the requirements (as stated in my previous post) for full-time status for benefits. If they used to offer benefits, they are not offering them to new hires, at least that is my impression.

Transtech MTs, who long after you get hired does it
take to get your paper work. I accepted a position last week and still have not received it. Just wondering
I'm the lucky one, just got hired at Transtech M-F
Of course, that is why TransTech hired SO MANY MT's as of late because they had this big
announcement to make today and they knew they would be losing many good/excellent MT's with this VR announcement. What was the good news/big thing that we have been hearing that is coming for us MT's???? Definitely not this memo today to TT MT's.
TT would not be using VR if it was not more money in MGMT pockets. Do you really think they care THAT MUCH about their MT's as to put extra money in the MT's pockets? NOT AT ALL!
TT just lost their caring for the MT's with this VR Email today.
Of course TransTech pays for spaces and they have a easy to get bonus structure.
I make as much as I did at the hospital, because of the bonus structure, retroactive to line 1. They pay for spaces and expanders, and they have ops normals too. Just wanted to put an FYI so people think TT does not pay for spaces, of course they do. You can make a lot per line with the structure and also differential and bonuses almost every weekend at TT.
Where is this information coming from about new MQ line rates? I'm a long-time MQer and have nev

Better be glad you got the easier dictators soon, because you're time is coming for the ^^^REAL^^
dictators! Be glad you got off now. I wondered where my better dictators went the last week or so !!!!! Lucky you !!!!!
I can always tell when the TT favorite MT's are off, because I get their dictators -- making it easier for me to get my line count. Yea !
TT is constantly hiring, so the above scenario is a norm.
TransTech and Keystrokes also offer some Dictaphone ExText accts. Very easy to

$1,000 a month would be part-time and easy enough to do.
Most people don't consider it good pay, but it's a reasonable goal if you have a spouse or supplemental income. Even as a newbie, $1,000 per month divided by four weeks is $250 per week. That's 25 hours at $10 per hour, or 125 lines per hour at $.08 cpl.
Anyone use TimeTrax as a time clock? Easy, hard,

If you were hired full time --
and they do not provide full-time work, you can draw unemployment in my state. I just had to report each week how much I made and they gave me a check based on that.

Not easy to make 1000 - lots of ESLs or time
spent looking up addresses, etc. They kept you on because they can't find anyone to put up with the low and steady income.
Pay always on time, platform is easy, they've always been nice to me, do have several accounts to
avoid running out of work. I do MT and QA.
There is a time clock, but LPH is easy to achieve and bonus is not done by that any longer. SM
Much better than E-time, if that's what the Evil Q still uses. No worries.
I agree. I am only part time so far, but I love it. The platform is easy, and sm
the people are great. I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto them.
Entry-level MTs are hired all the time...
but in this industry, entry level usually refers to someone who has completed a comprehensive MT training course but has no actual paid MT experience. My suggestion would be to investigate training at M-TEC or Andrews before thinking of looking for a job.
The last time I checked they only hired emp. I will check. Thanks! nm

I work part time, got hired last month. nm
Several months ago a company called Charts in Time (CIT) hired some MTs off here. Just wondering how
it turned out for those MTs as I turned it down and wondered if I should have taken the job. Thanks.
Anyone know of a company, easy clinic work, easy Word format, dependable pay? Help!

Question for old time TransTech MTs.
I keep seeing a new MT who is not following format on the new account to an extreme. Additionally, has about 10 blanks and is not sending to QA. What would you do, notify management or just keep quiet? I've seen this over and over again in reports that I pull up. I don't want to be a sourpuss but it's really, really bad and I think in the long run will reflect negatively on the company. Input is appreciated.
TransTech part-time?
I currently work for Transtech and am very happy there. My only problem is I'm finding it hard to balance taking care of my kids and myself (I've had heart issues since having my baby last year) and was wondering if TransTech even offers part time work.
Like I said, I'm very happy there and want to continue my employment, and going partim time would make things here much easier.
Thanks 
Part-time TransTech
How many hours are considered part-time? I don't think they used to hire part-time.
does anyone know if TransTech hires part-time? thanks! nm

Transtech Full time status
Can anyone tell me how Transtech defines full-time. Is it so many hours a week or based on a certain line count? Thanks.
Charts In Time, TransTech or MedScribe
Anyone have any good information about these two companies? Thinking of applying. What type of platform do they use?
Thanks
Is this a good time to apply at Transtech?
TransTech - they are hiring now, good time

I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.
I was hired and started in 1 week. That is not a long set-up time. When I started with our local h
I needed to get a physical and go through orientation at the hospital which is only given two times per month. This is a 900-bed hospital, so it cannot be an unusual process. MQ took 2 weeks. KS took 1 week. SoftScript never got me started even after repeated calls and emails.
I have only been with KS for 9 months but would never put them in the same catagory as the others you mentioned. They are the best company I have worked for, and unfortunately, I have bounced around a little in the last 5 years.

I worked part-time for Webmedx and I work FT for TransTech. sm
My vote would be for TransTech, although Webmedx is not bad. Since I was only part-time, I did not receive any benefits, but from what I recall, they did seem to have a nice benefit package. My main complaint was that I just never could get my lines per hour up to where they have been at other companies. Normally, I average around 300 lines per hour, but even with totally focusing and typing as fast as I could, I never could get past 250-260 lines per hour at Webmedx. Their incentive pay is based on lines per hour that you type, not total lines per pay period, so it did make a difference in my pay. I also did not like the fact that I had to use their computer. I like using my own computer, and also like the flexibility of being able to load the program on my laptop so if I have to be away from home, I can still work if I need to.
I have seen negative posts about TT, but I have no complaints with them. My line counts are fair. The people in management are absolutely some of the most caring people I have ever met. The work generally is plentiful, and I have a backup account. The incentive tiers are easy to attain, and the benefits are pretty good, I think, and not outlandishly priced.
Obviously, not every company is a good fit for everyone. I hope you find just exactly what is best for you -- good luck!
I think it depends on experience, account hired for, etc. I was hired at .08 per line sm
but after 90 days went to 0.085 and then 0.09 about 90 days after that. I am now at 0.0925 and have been there a year. I have to point out that the line rate might not be the highest but I can verify my counts, have plenty of work, get paid on time and have a great manager. To me, leaving a bad national and the headaches that went with it was well worth the cut in pay I took. Funny thing is that I took a pretty sizable pay cut but make more money ?!?!
Anyone know what full time is at Transtech? Lines or hours? Do they flex schedule? nm

Hope Transtech is NOT still hiring, because we are all fighting for work right now OVERHIRE big time
Be careful right now, because TT has much overhired, promising something big coming up, but nothing seen by the MT's yet, just LOW WORK load.
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)
.
TransTech, some MedWare accts., Amphion, Commonwealth (in CT.), Charts in Time, Focus. nm

Full time with Transtech is both. 40 hours per week and 5500 lines per week.

I said "about to be" hired... not yet hired, and ........
considering it just like I would consider any job.... I didn't accept the job yet and wanted to check out the info out there.
I saw this coming!!!
I saw this coming when they first started us on this new platform, and eventually, ALL the accounts will be editing. These MTs really don't care because it is not happening to them right now!! My opinion is that EVERYONE will eventually be editing and not typing and at the 40% lower rate per line. When that happens, all of these Transcend cheerleaders will be just like me, sitting with their mouths hanging open in disbelief that it is happening to them. I used to be one of those cheerleaders and now feel bad that the 2 people I referred to Transcend have now had to go get other jobs because of lack of work, timeouts, downtime, etc., etc. Why would they want to pay 8 cents per line when they can pay for those same lines at 4.8 with editing. OF COURSE, everyone possible will be editing, and it will not take long to do it either. We had about a week's notice when we went to editing, which I felt was also inconsiderate, and they will do everyone else that way too--just watch and see what happens!!
Like I said before, TRANSCEND SUCKS!!
Ex-Transcend cheerleader!!!
