Extext and she said that was what they used and didn't tell me any different when she said they wanted me to do this hospital so if it's not Extext I'm going to tell them I want something else. That is one of the main reasons I picked this company - the same program I'm already used to. I'll ask them about that. Thanks for the info.

16-yo son has job interview at K-Mart - interview attire help(sm)
My 16-year-old son has his first job interview at K-Mart. He has basically applied for any position they will give him. I'm insisting that he he wear a nice pair of Dickies and a polo shirt (which I will have to go buy but this is not a problem as I expect to do this). However, My DH is insisting that it's ok for him to go in the nice pair of shorts (not Dickies but more along the lines of baggy shorts that the teenagers are wearing these days) and a t-shirt. Am I in the wrong here? I've seen the way these kids dress after they get the job (although I'm not sure if they wear t-shirts and shorts). Am I being old fashioned in assuming that you dress decent for a job interview (although if he was applying for a welding position at the local shipyard I don't know if I'd make him dress up). Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA
An MQ recruiter told me yesterday if work is low they "cut off" the work
SEs are doing it. She also told me that it is written in MQ policies
that MQ can let go EMPLOYEES without notice (I'm not saying statutory employees here, I'm saying employees).
The state told us that MTs are employees because we they work in our system and do the same work as
maybe you can work for a company in another state.
If her first initial was J, they are no longer in
business. She went into nursing, pediatric intensive care I believe.
My initial reaction would be the same as yours, but...
then years of guilt trips from my mother and grandmother would kick in and I would probably at least send a gift. Not saying that's what you should do, because I think it takes nerve to blow off your family like she seems to have done and then send invitations to her own shower.
There's an initial feeling of
awkwardness when first trying a new keyboard, or at least that's been my experience. It doesn't last long though if you really like the keyboard. I've tried some keyboards that I just could not get used to and the feeling of awkwardness just never went away. I currently use a Logitec Cordless Comfort Ergonomic and I'm loving it so far. I had bought a Goldtouch split keyboard, but it didn't work with my computer. Good luck trying to find your fit! There are plenty out there, so I'm sure you'll find something that works for you. 
told me it would not work well
It could possibly work, but I was told by the secure FTP site that if the Olympus software was not a newer version that the doctors would then have to go to the secure FTP site and download the files manually, which would be very inconvenient for the docs. I checked and their Olympus software does not support an automatic download of the files to the docs, from what I can remember.
I had one also with my first initial and last name - all to crazy for me. It was spam also.

sorry I asked the initial question and
got all this started! SHEESH! I should have just emailed you. Just ignore all the rudeness on here - I think your home sounds lovely and peaceful. Thank you for sharing about it.
I agree, especially after the initial subterfuge...
with the constant use of the word ''we'' interspersed throughout the first postings, like the poster was an MT too, and then just throwing in briefly once or twice that they really aren't an MT (which was obvious enough with the lack of knowledge about the AAMT or HIPAA).
I have an idea of a not really too nefarious scenario, something like this: MT is telling her bigshot ''consultant'' friend about the problems in the MT biz and suggests that he/she come take a look at this board. After skimming some of the posts, the egotistic consultant figures out the answer to all our problems and spills them to MT friend, who gushes about the brilliance of it all, thus stroking consultant's ego. Consultant decides to come back here and lavish us all with these amazing insights about a profession that he/she only has secondhand knowledge of from MT friend. Voila. And a movement is -not- born.
I work for MQ and was told 1 space...NM

They told me speedtype wouldn't work either
but it does - you just have to have it open while you are working - it does not integrate into DQS - just sits there and lets you stuff it with expansions..;)
I was always told that Editscript will not work with dialup.
I have worked on this platform for over four years and for a few different companies and not one of them every told me that dialup would work. Did you tell your employer that you had dialup?
Not the OP, but after an initial "big" loss of svl lbs., you should only lose 1-2 lbs a week f

AAMT is a 4-letter word. I work for MQ and never been told
any more uninformed directions from people who don't count?
Sorry, I got cut off and didn't realize it. I was told it was more of a way to get the work back
I was told it was more of a way to get the work back and forth. Does it actually affect the line counts?
I'm pretty sure they told us it would not work with Word 2003 at all. NM

All groomers I have used, do it. The veterinarian I used to work for told people the groomer

Curiously I was told by Sylvan Software this a.m. that IT WILL work with Chartscipt - sm
The only thing is I could not get them to specific it would work with Chartscript.net. They would only say Chartscript, claiming they were told by the developer it would work. I get very frustrated with these companies selling products they know nothing about.
I was told that Healthscribe outsourced and when acquired, that Spheris would be bringing work
And this is information came to me from the inside, given to me when I was hired and in training.

I told you once, I told you twice, eTransPlus is going down the drain!
Don't expect communication from anyone, we are only little "peons."
Interview
The interview with Amphion is nothing to be worried about. They basically just ask you your past experience as a Transcriptionist and what areas you feel are your strengths/weaknesses. It was not a difficult interview at all. They're very nice people. Good luck on the interview! 
Interview
I would be more than happy to participate also.
interview?
I have an interview with a company and I just realized... I have no idea what to expect. I wasn't really interviewed when I got my last transcription job, I was basically thrown into it to see how I did and I happened to do well. Is there anything that makes an MT interview different from an interview with, say, a retail company?
interview
I only have one piece of advice for you. Over the last 25 years (until I got smart) I have worked in doctor's offices. I say, don't do it. You will automatically become their secretary, office assistant, receptionist, insurance clert, medical assistant... you get my drift. Go to another transcription company and ask for more than 8-9 cents per line. Trust me on this.
Interview With Prosecutor
The prosecutor from Aruba was interviewed last week and she said they can still go ahead with charging the boy with murder even without a body. She said it would be harder to make the case but they have some evidence which, by law, they cannot disclose.

Transcend Interview
I tested yesterday online with Transcend. Got an e-mail today stating they would like an interview so I called and scheduled one. Not sure yet about quitting MQ but am very nervous about their new plans as I am a SE. Anyone been interviewed via phone by Transcend and what can I expect? Heart is pounding so nervous.
Interview today sm
I also have an interview today with Transcend and wondering what to expect. Hopefully, I'll be leaving Medquist soon, too.
job interview tomorrow ... what do you think?
Hi all ... I'm going to a local hospital tomorrow for an interview. The job is in the laboratory. It's a f/t position where half the day you do pathology transcription and the other half secretarial work. It's mon-fri, 9-5.
This is in New York (the suburbs) actually, about 1/2 hour north of NYC. I have 13 years of medical records transcription experience, and prior to that for 5+ years worked as a secretary to a medical director.
How much of a salary should I expect ? Thanks!

At the end of the interview, the decision
was up to Mr. Trump, not Randall. In the business world, you protect your own position and interest, and he showed Mr. Trump that he was indeed tough enough to do that. This is not "Survivor," taking someone to the final two.
As far as Rebecca goes, she is indeed a very impressive 23-year-old. Her exposure from the show will take her far, perhaps farther than the Trump organization. However, she is still quite young. The right candidate was selected for this position.
what an MT test I took on an interview !
I went for a job interview at NYC's largest hospital yesterday. The job was for an Admin Assist position, with a lot of transcription skills as well. For the transcription part of the exam, "all the equipment is in use right now" they told me, and they decided to give me a LIVE test:
They got one of the anesthesiologists on staff to find a chart and pull up a chair next to me. Face to face he dictated a report to me, as I typed it. It was weirdddddd! But I did very good on it actually ... it was an easy (for me) report.
I don't want the job though ... they practically told me on the interview the job pays from 9-5, but the hours are WHATEVER IS NEEDED - and that they needed 'flexibility'. You know what that means - the job better become my entire life. And I'm not willing to do that.
Thanks guys! And have a happy holiday !
I had a phone interview...
with Amphion. No, they don't ask you any test questions or anything like that. It's simply an opportunity for them to see what you are looking for and what they have to offer, etc. Fairly quick and painless. The woman I spoke to was very nice!
Interview attire
I left the corporate world less than two years ago to be at home with my kids, but when I left pant suits were very much the norm, and I think that would be very appropriate for a job interview, even if there won't be a dress code. I think the days are gone where you have to wear a skirt to be professional. There are so many nice looking, professional pant suits now. Good luck to you!
I just saw an interview with Chris from AI
on our local Fox news. Everyone was figuring he was going to win and he was supposed to fly home tonight and there were going to parties all over town tomorrow. Anyway, he couldn't get out a complete sentence that didn't have "well you know" in it. Articulate he isn't.
Dressing for an Interview
When I was in a class at college that helped you to prepare for getting a job, women were to wear a suit, jacket and skirt with white blouse, and guys a suit and white shirt and tie.
I realize this is just an interview at K-mart but I have heard of others landing a job partially because they made a great impression by dressing up regardless of the position they were interviewing for. My brother was one of those people that did this for an auto parts delivery man position and they told him how impressed they were with his attire. So, I really do think it makes a big statement and difference a lot of times.
Wishing your son the best of luck! I say dress up the best he can, present himself professionally, and he will be more apt to land the job. :)
Interview Attire
I just finished with an in-house interview a month ago. I wore a nice black skirt, a white blouse, and a nice blazer over the blouse. To complete the outfit, I had on black pantyhose and black shoes.
when was it ever $80,000/year! Every interview I had with them
it was $25,000/year, even last year, it was still $25,000/year, no taxes. If it were $80,000, bombs or no bombs, I'd jump on it in a minute, and I would wear a burka ... it beats what some transcriptionists wear to work already LOL!
job interview - anxious
Ok, I am hoping to be interviewed for a MT job at a local hospital. I have not been through an interview process in quite some time. What can I expect in the way of interview questions? TIA
? Interview questions (sm)
They could possibly ask the following questions:
What do your consider to be your weakness?
If the MT supervisor is asking this question, it could mean lack of exposure of certain specialties or ESL dictators. Be honest. If you lack exposure in any of the areas required for the position, tell he/she you like challenges and are very interested in increasing your ed/attending any continuing ed classes the corporation has to offer.
If the position has flexible scheduling, please share which shift you would be the most productive. (As for me, I am not a "morning person.")
What do you consider to be your strengths?
If you have extensive exposure with multiple specialities/ESL share that info, but just "do not exaggerate."
Where would you like to be in next 5 years with this corporation?
Think this over carefully.
If you not a "CMT" and if you wish to become one, share with them your future professional interests.
If they have shared their transcription platform and it is not user-friendly to
your expectations, share with them your interest in "future transcription technology research team" or "editor/quality performance." (Just don't tell them their system is not user-friendly -- if it is not and you know you will have difficulty reaching your production, you do not have to accept the position.)
If they do not have a "remote/home-based" program and you would like to be home-based, share with them your interest in assisting with piloting a home-based program.
They should share with you first how they compensate their transcriptions -- hourly, base rate plus incentive, or straight production.
If the job is pay per production, get all the info on "line count formula."
If you are offered the position and think their platform will limit your production, share your concerns up front.
I am not certain they can ask why you are leaving your present job, but, if so, share with them your interest in enhancing your healthcare career. And, if you are interest in the benefits they offer, share that also. Try not to tell them anything negative about your present position.
Wishing you much success with your interview!!!
Thank You All For Your Interview Answers!!
There have been many great responses to my 'MT student' interview questions. I want to thank everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions. Your responses are all very helpful to me. I really can't wait to graduate and start my new career!! Thank you all once again!!!
Interview coming up...
I have an interview coming up for PT with an ortho clinic ON SITE. I have 3 years experience in acute care and op notes and getting paid 7/cpl right now working at home. What line rate or pay per hour do you think I should ask for now that I'd be buying clothes and gas?
