But there is a link on that board to post a resume and you
can post it there. Job seekers board is only for companies to post about positions.
I meant to say Job-Seekers Board, not Company Board.
No mssg.
go to the job seekers board and about --sm
a third down that page, there is an ad that begins with *body aches and pains* posted by National Telecommuting Service. Read that, as it concerns people with disabilities and doing medical transcription. Hope this helps you out. good luck
Please see the ads on the Job Seekers board. NM

Per the ad on the job seekers board, there are rad
However, I applied for rad in the past and was offered clinic. I applied again for a rad position with the current ad and I have answered the questionnaire again, so my fingers are crossed.
The job seekers board...
Sure is loaded with garbage lately.
What is with these companies demanding 5+ years experience and then offering 7 cents/line, or wages of $7 to $15 an hour? Yikes! I hope people aren't taking these jobs.
The companies should be ashamed of themselves for expecting experienced MT's to settle for such crap wages. 
go to the job seekers board on the left
hand side of this page. Editing would be considered a position in the "QA" field. There are lots of these positions open.
How do I respond to ads on the job seekers board?
This might seem like a silly question but do I just send my resume using the 'apply now' button or can I and should I also send a cover letter with it? Does it need to be in plain text? Thanks
Yes, but go to the Job Seekers board at the top left of your screen.
The Job Seekers board shows jobs that are available. You can
post your resume securely in the Resume Bank. If you do not want to give a lot of detailed information, you can post with the name Available MT or something of that nature and in the body give a brief description of your experience. When you enter your email address it is not visible to potential employers, but they can send you an email. Only when you reply will they know your email address. It's a great way to put yourself out there without COMPLETELY putting yourself out there. If an employer is looking for someone with your skills and experience, they will contact you. Good Luck!
When reading the job seekers board do you get discouraged at
the amount of times the post has been viewed? Sometimes, even though it was posted today, it has over 200 views already. Is everyone just looking or are all those MTs applying? How does one stand a chance....
Job ads go on the Job Seekers board only, that is why post was removed.

Post a resume board?
Wasn't there a "post a resume" board? I am not seeing it. Quit my other job for full time and it is not even half time. Going broke here.
Administrator I posted my name for looking for an MT job on your job resume board and I dont see it
there.
Post resume on job board, stating what experience you have.

When I copy my resume to the ads on the job board it gets all messed up, dates on the wrong line,
and I have to straighten it all back out again, so that the name of the hospital that I worked at is on the first line, then the dates worked there, etc. My question is, do I need to straighten this out or does it just mess it up more for the person who is trying to print it out who receives it. It is perfect when I copy it from MSword, but then when I paste it, it is messed up. Should I straighten it out to look right because the place that is hiring will read it from that place that I copied it to or should I leave it the way it was originally because they will open it to a larger screen and it will appear normal again?! I'm not sure which I should be doing so that the person on the other end gets a normal appearing resume! Thanks for your help! 
here is a link from the New MT board-you might want to read a bit on this board

I would be interested in talking to you some more about this company. Can I email you? Let me know. mh
Ther are different ones...sm
Some have a software program that is a conduit from the handheld to the computer. Some have USB drives built into them (the best, IMO) that you simply put in a computer USB drive and the unit is seen as a hard drive. It just depends on which one they have. I would suggest the built-in USB ones, as they are just a drag and drop philosophy. MUCH easier to teach someone to use.

Please help on depression board. I put the link inside.
Send me the link to the ad on Equipment board. (SM)
I will discuss this with the Administrator and see if at least we can prevent her from posting anymore equipment for sale.

Administrator has a link to the board inside
I guess it is available with the other boards on the left, but I too have followed MTStars instructions with no luck getting these back. I've just added the boards I can't "jump to" in my favorites list.
This is an awesome link... Thanks so much, I posted this on another board (sm)
Was referred to this Tips & Techniques... No clue what it meant... This explains a lot. Thanks so much.

Medware's ad in job seekers, Is all of that true?

Have you seen: Internship offers 3cpl on Job Seekers Bd?
Even as an intern, that should be considered criminal. I don't understand what some companies are thinking when they do that sort of thing.
Just a thought.
BTW, lots of jobs avail thru the job seekers
MedQuist board is now set up. See Medquist link to the left.
Link is also below.
I simply chose the wrong link. See inside for the correct link.

Resume
I would have liked to have heard from this person on the board instead of seeing the job posted again. I did not receive any response to my resume.
Resume sent
I sent you my resume. Let me know what you think

where can i post my resume on the board?
RESUME
I went to the Company's Board and sent my resume to all of the companies that I felt would work for me. Specifically, I did not want to supply my own equipment. Plus my resume was simply a description of my past experiences. I didn't put in "objectives, goals, etc." I simply stated what I did. I have never done a resume and did not use a specific format. I got a reply and got hired over the phone in less than ONE day. I didn't have the equipment to test with, so they will just watch my work for two weeks, and if I "pass," I'm hired. They furnish all the equipment if you want them to, the recruiter was SO nice and comfortable, and the start pay was rather good. I came from a "not so nice" company, so I'm SO happy. I didn't post my resume as I feel there are so many ones posted, it would be next to impossible for a company to go through all those resumes. This way, I went to the company, presented myself via my "simple" resume, and got an email the next morning. That is the way I would do it. Use the Company Board and just keep sending your resume to all the companies. Your resume comes back after you post; you just go on to the next company and post ...... easy as pie. Good Luck!!
Resume
Has anyone been able to actually log into the resume sectoin on the Job Seeker's board? I created a user ID/password last weekend and still get a log in error. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem.
On my resume
I list my current work status as follows:
Independent Contractor - Medical Transcriptionist
5/00 - Present
Include a statement about refs being available upon request, and then provide the refs of your choosing based on how many they want.
Why does my resume pop up here?
Whenever I click on Apply Now on any job ad on the job seeker board here, my resume is automatically pasted into the box!!
How did that happen? I don't paste it - it's already there.
Resume
Does anyone know where I can find samples of MT resumes?
what to put on resume???
I am kind of at my wit's end here. I have only worked for two different companies as a transcriptionist, one for 17 years and the present one for 12 years. What do I need to put on a resume, besides these two companies that I have worked for. Should I list the types of reports I have transcribed? Does anyone know of a template that I could use for this? Thanks to all!!
resume
I was told to copy into a notebook format and use the notebook to copy and paste it into the text boxes. I did this to be on the safe side after noticing the same problem you are having.
What I do on my resume....
I put "Formerly credentialed by AHIMA as a Registered Health Informaation Administrator." At one time I had "inactive" after the letters, but changed that to the 'former.' No one has ever questioned me on it one way or another. I still have my original certification letter and credential certificate in case i ever need to prove it.
I sent my resume sm
I am glad someone else asked about them. I got a letter of introduction.
Gotta have DSL, not cable (I have cable). They go into detail about the number of lines per period expected, but nothing about how lines are counted. They do not give the stipulations of how a sign on bonus is to be paid out either. They only have 2 positions open and they are both 3 to 11.
I usually jump on a job (if I am looking which I am right now) if I have not seen the company advertise extensively for MTs. I figure if a company is always looking for MTs, it is because they have a low MT retention rate. This is not always the case, but it is my first thought. I also come here and read about a company too.
I got this letter after I had agreed to full time with another company that doesn't advertise much either. The line rate is quite a bit less, but it is employee status, matching taxes, company contributes to health insurance and it is not very expensive with 7 different plans to choose from, dental, vision and a PTO program that pays based on your average hourly rate over the previous 90 days, which is pretty fair if you ask me. Given the state of my income tax bill...a lower line rate with some benefits and some help on taxes all look good to me. They will reimburse for my internet, but as I have another PT IC job I won't be putting in for this, I'll need it for my taxes (it is not very high in any case).
So...here I go, my first employee status as an MT.
Of note, I have a place I gave my notice to today. They pay 10 and 11 cents a line and there is never any work, or at least it has gotten to where they run out on a regular and predictable basis. On top of that, I think they have slowly shifted how they are counting lines because I have been working faster and over the same numbers of hours, but my checks have gotten smaller and smaller to the point where last check was HALF what my check had been the last of October! I am out of there.
