thinking about applying for dr's office position...
and gosh, it's been so long since I've been to an interview...I'm looking for some tips on questions to ask the interviewer. I don't like going to an interview and NOT asking any questions.
Also, I do have the experience they are looking for, although it has been about 8-9 years since I've actually done hands-on back office work...tips on explaining this would be appreciated too! 
If I cant get google back, thinking of applying

Does anyone have any experience with TRS Institute- thinking of applying
?
Thinking of applying at Golden Isles Medical Transcription..sm
Would someone with some inside information please email me? I would like to know some particulars about this company before I think of applying for a job. Would be interested in their platform, the type of accounts, their line rate, whether they require weekend work, and anything else you would care to share! Thank you.
Speaking of Kenny Chesney, is anyone thinking what I am thinking? see message
When I hear the words, "annulment" and "fraud" in the same sentence, I can only think of one thing. Anybody else thinking the same thing?
Applying for job
Why is it when you are applying for a job and you would like to speak to a person to learn the platform, jobs offered, hours, pay rates, etc. you are always told you have to test first? What's up with that? I want information up front before the possibility of wasting my time. I may not want to test and then be offered a job paying 4 cents a line (or day).
Can I ask why? I am considering applying. nm

Have you tried applying in
doctors' offices? If you can realistically say that vocabulary and spelling are strengths for you, where English was a class you breezed through and you read a lot and have a huge vocabulary that can keep up with MDs who may also have PHds, then maybe you would be able to work in an office where MT is a big part of the job. It just isn't always easy to find jobs like that. You'd probably be transcribing from tapes, which can be just fine and give you a little feeling of job security because he may not want to bother with newer technology.
I'd just keep applying
You've only been out for a year. That isn't long. Just keep applying everywhere and something will most likely turn up.
By applying your logic, that would mean that those of you
on this board who hate George Bush actually want to sleep with him? Ewwww!
Does anyone know how to go about applying for a government job?

Question about applying for a job
I have an IC position at a company and would like to start looking for another company for more work. Should I put my current company on my resume and if not, what would I put as a heading under experience for that company? I should add that the company I work with is my first transcription job, so I've never had to put anything on my resume about previous experience and don't really know how it works. Thanks!
I am leery of applying too, but as far as pay, it

I would like to know to, so I can avoid applying
there. 3 cpl is awful.
Applying for IC positions
I was an employee of a large national for 8-1/2 years. They provided the whole PC and set-up. I've never been an IC. Is there any point in applying for IC jobs if I've never been one? I have a PC with a temp version of Word 2007 and antivirus software, but that's it. No footpedals. TIA.
Is it OK to give only two reference when applying for a job
i'm a stay at home mom, and would like to apply for a job. however, i don't have any contact with my previous employer/supervisor anymore. i don't know who to include in my reference that would be relevant with the job that i am applying for. please help!! i need some advice. tia.
Have fun applying at McDonald's in a few years!
Thanks for the info. I won't bother applying either. nm
applying at wal-mart..or mickey D's
With all the uncertainty, the other day I was in the customer service dept of Wal-Mart and there was a place to sit and fill out an application and I thought for a second or two, maybe I should apply.I didnt but the way transcription is going, I envision myself working at Wal-Mart or McDonalds soon..
Another question, as far as etiquette when applying for a job... SM
I was thinking about applying with the service that the hospital is outsourcing to and I was wondering say I take the test and get a job offer, is acceptable for me to request that I be placed on my former employer's account and will they honor my request?
They have been handling our over flow for several years and so I'm sure that there are MTs who have been on the account a while. So I guess I was just wondering if they would let me work on an already well established account.
I do about 5200 a week now, but I am not applying myself as well as I could - sm
So once I buckle down I hope to do 8000 week--I goof off way too much. If I did not, I would be done what I do now a lot earlier and also have time to do more (i.e. another 3000 lines a week) if I chose to do it. Discipline is my problem. I do not have a lot of repetitive work either so I don't have that going for me unfortunately, though I am doing macros for phrases like crazy which slows you down some but in the long run pays off. Good luck.
When applying for jobs on board
I am back in the "look for another job" phase of my life which I thought had ended. After several years, I am back in the market though and have responded to ads posted on this message board.
Do you ladies and gentlemen typically include a cover letter stating you situation and stats, equipment, etc?
And, with regard to equipment, if we do not have what is requested but are fully willing and able to purchase it to be able to work for the job being applied for, should we state this? It appears that jobs posted are asking for specific equipment and that is not a problem other than getting it shipped to us. Unless they want us to hit the ground running these days.
Thank you for your time, comrades in arms.
Just start applying with your resume
Even though you've been teaching, that shouldn't matter much especially since it is English! Good luck to you! Just start applying and sending your resume. The companies will give you the information you'll need to get back in the swing of things.
What type jobs are you applying for?
Clinic experience does not equal acute care experience. Need to look at those companies looking for clinic work and then maybe ease your way in with them in speciality areas.
Last resort is applying at the service the hospital is using.
dd
Ammonia possibly. But, do have ventilation and do not inhale while applying it!
dd
You have plenty of experience to be an Editor. Start applying everywhere.

If you are applying with nationals, it is kind of luck of the draw I would
suspect. The national I work for did not conduct a background check. I know that some do, and some don't. I guess the severity of your crime would have a lot to do with it, or some companies may have a no tolerance policy altogether. If you are looking at local clinics or hospitals you could try explaining face to face, but I would not try to hide that fact from them as they would not look kindly on it if they were to find out on their own.
JMO, but you are better off just applying directly to a company and skipping them altogether...
they basically try to fit your experience with a company and you can do that yourself...
When applying for an MTSO company....(2 unrelated questions LOL)
Do you just assume they have templates and word expanders? As I was doing my current job (which is now almost completely dried up of work), I realized how good I have it with the word expanders. That is one of the reasons I am so fast! So it is safe to assume they usually offer this kind of thing? I can only imagine they have to, but have never applied to one so dont mean to sound silly. I've been an IC for 10 years!
The other unrelated part is if the company is paying you 7, 8, 9 CPL... what are they likely charging their client? That is just my curiosity getting the best of me.
Thanks
Keep applying at jobs is my opinion. Find out where your local hospital transcription is done

I look at the jobs posted and tons of MTs are applying. I am employed but not terribly pleased with
prefer OPs and have done MT work for about 16 years. I have worked for MQ for 11 years for the Univ. of Pa. which they lost and now I am working for a small company in Michigan with just tons and tons of crap work. I would like an IC job with OPs if possible.
How long should I wait after applying for a position before I follow-up. It has been as long as two
without hearing from some. Just wondering if I should send an e-mail to follow-up to see if they received my resume or not. I don't want to offend anyone but feel two weeks should be long enough for someone to at least acknowledge my resume and that I have applied for a position. Right now I would accept anything even a note saying no thanks. Any advice would be appreciated. I haven't had to apply for a job for the past 10 years so I am a bit rusty at this. Thanks again for any advice.
Foot pedal? Going from VXP to applying for other companies. What foot pedal should I get that woul
I need one even just to test so it seems. Thanks for the input!
LOL, that's exactly what I was thinking
Let's try to focus on the original question, not debate the evils of daycare. I agree, many discussions on this board do end in negativity, but I thought this one was going pretty well until we hit the nerve about daycare.
I think Kira has been given a lot of great information from a lot of different points of view. It's all food for thought.
My thinking too - thus the OMG nm
That's what I was thinking.
It sounds like a case of misdirected anger here. Grandma was probably waiting for the right moment instead of springing bad news on them the moment they came through the door. Are you going to all have a yelling match late at night when your'e tired from your trip and all the kids are home? Better to wait until they're at school and discuss it like rational adults. How many times has the kid been arrested and suspended before now? The kid is the one who was wrong by misbehaving in the first place. If he's such a bad seed, why did he get left with Grandma anyway? Everyone knows Grandparents aren't as good as enforcing rules as parents are. All this communication and responsibility nonsense is control freak bunk. The kid wouldn't have been arrested and suspended if you truly had honest and open communication. Why was he arrested and suspended anyway?
That's exactly what I was thinking

I was just thinking. . . .sm
I have a friend that was a Pug breeder. Unfortunately the "Pug couple" only had one litter as the female had major problems with her first and only litter. She still has the male and female who are almost 10 years old and in good health.
She "rescued" a "Puggle" (Pug/Beagle cross) a few months ago and that poor dog had the worst gas. STINK! It was just awful. She was feeding him Iams just like her older Pugs, but he would make everyone run outside. We had him in the car one day and we were all ready to just bail.
I'll have to ask her what she did to make the Puggle stop clearing out the neighborhood.
I too have been thinking about it...sm
I have not raised my price for five years and am seriously considering going up another penny maybe after the holidays. I too pick up and deliver and we all know the cost of gas! Anyway, I think I am due or overdue!!!
by that thinking
We should all be speaking Native American, they were here first!
Thinking outside the box (Where is this box?) and
people calling eachother "DAWG" - how stupid is that.

I was tought to type way back in the 10th grade. We learned right from the start not to look at the keys. Why do you need the letters to stay on?? I really don't understand it.
Thinking about it.
I have a BS that isn't that marketable (at least all of my A&P, Patho, etc.. were useful for this job) and am contemplating the same thing.
I have thought about outpatient primary care nursing since I don't really want to work in an inpatient environment. I originally wanted to get my BSN but got sidetracked and am thinking about going back through a BS to BSN program sometime in the future.
My kids are 2,3 and 7 and while I know some people can do it, I think it would be really hard to go to RN school at this point in my life. Your child is older and it might be easier for you, but it will still be tough. You have to get to clinicals early and often stick around to get more information on your pt at the end. The night before your clinical, I have heard RN students have to do tons of prep work - you have to know your pt's medical condition inside and out and have all of your nursing diagnoses and care plans set up.
Its a lot of work but the career is very rewarding and the pay, despite all of the kvetching, is pretty darn decent.
If it is something YOU want to do, talk to an advisor. Get the lowdown on it. When I was in college the first time, the RN program had an information session for prospective students that included a Q and A with a current student. But, make sure it is your goal - I let people convince me to go pre-med and within a semester I realized there was no way I wanted to be an MD. Had I stuck to my desires instead of what someone else wanted for me and thought was a better choice, I might have been a pretty good nurse by now.
Good luck. Lots of people do it. It is much harder than when you have no kids but people do it all of the time.
If the guy is really as bad as she has us thinking,
and she could lose her current job and any future job. I am beginning to wonder if the site should start a "Support your local Jodi" page.
I'm thinking about getting the DVD, too. sm
I can't believe I didn't watch this show from the beginning. I just really started watching it this season. Now it's a must see show for me!
I really don't know what he was thinking......I just think he is
heartless and thought maybe he could leave the country and not have to come back or something??? I really don't know. I just think he put the gun back thinking he had cleaned it good and that no one would ever think to check that gun since noone knew it had been gone. As far as the computer, the porn looks bad if he is guilty but the fact is looking at porn doesn't make him guilty. On the other hand, if you take the computer then it does look like you are hiding something. He probably just didn't think about the computer....None of it makes sense to me either. I think he just killed her and then wasn't sure what to do.....
Don't know what I was thinking...
All of this is new to me. Forgive the stupid question. I get how it works now. Thanks.
Yes, I was thinking that I would...
need to gather some references, maybe a book or two. I have done some reports, but not a wide range. That is why I was hoping to get some imput from people who do psych on a regular basis.
Any references, info would be greatly appreciated :)
What are they thinking...?
I have looked into it and, quite frankly, it looks absolutely ridiculous. All these outrageous rules, especialy when a man (who came up with the theory) decided a woman shouldn't make any noise while giving birth (but she can have all the drugs she wants) and some goofball decides for his wife that's the thing to do! Go figure.
Exactly what I was thinking
Taylor was already an established entertainer, maybe not hugely successful, but already had his on stage persona established. Elliott, for example, was undiscovered and uncharted territory. Ready to be molded. I have read on the AI message board that some people just "couldn't get past the teeth". Well, uh, I think he can afford to get some work done now if he so chooses. To me a talent show should be about undiscovered talent, someone who grows tremendously during the competition. Can ya tell I'm an E fan. LOL.
