Found their website at www.lartechinc.com. Looks a little sketchy to me. Funky wording and a section on India operations. Looks like an Indian-run company. I would definitely stay away.

have you found anything yet?
Do you know someone in the industry with experience that can help you out. Maybe they can have you type and they can QA your work and train you at the same time? That would be in a perfect world I guess, but it was just a thought. I graduated from a business college 15 years ago and was fortunate enough to be hired on as a trainee in a hospital. best thing that ever happened for my career. Where are you located?
I found a new one
Looks like it is just starting but I don't know if I can post it

not from either and found job
I also did not go to Andrews, M-Tec, or CareerStep. I got a job before I graduated. I attended a school many called a matchstick or matchbook school. However, I did not only study what was given to me. I studied extra and typed way more than was required.
While I think that if someone has the money they should go to one of the bigger schools, it does not mean that if you did not go to them you wont get a job.
Hard work and perserverance get you a job.
Graduates, has anyone found
that M-Tec's curriculum was superior to Career Step? Also, for M-Tec grads, were you able to repeat a section (if you tested poorly) until you got it right, and improved? Was there a limit on how many times you could re-test on any given area (I'm thinking of my weaker areas that might need extra time.)
TIA! :) -Anne
I would not advise it. You would be found out.

Newbie found a job
I wrote last week about what a hard time I was having finding a job. I appreciate everyone's advice. The best advice I got was "persistence pays off".
I found out how to find that out.
It look like I am getting about 80 words a line. But as my line count per hour increasese, wouldn't I be better off because even the one word and partial lines count as a sentence? It doesn't seem like it would be that bad of pay. But, of course, I am a newbie and do not know the ropes yet.
Something cool I found...
Hi guys,
I don't know if this will help anyone or not, but I thought I'd post it anyway since it helped me. It's laboratory reference ranges. It's like 6 pages long. You can print it out. I don't know if you can paste addresses anymore, but you can Google it, or you can e-mail me, and I will send you the address.
Everyone on the forum has been so much help to me, I hope that this will help someone else.
newbie found job
I have only been out of school for one month. I found a job withing days. I found a website that list 137 companies. I applied to all of them (which sounds like a lot), but I got 13 requests to test. 10% responses is NOT BAD with ZERO experience. I went with the first company that contacted me because I liked what they had to offer. If you email me, I can email you the list of companies. You may some luck with them.
I found this info... don't know if it could help

Also found something else of interest
When I clicked on their "Jobs" link, there's a link there under "latest news" that says: "World Direct Partners with Sten-Tel, Inc." The link, however, when clicked directs to the home page, which is empty.
I found another job lead
Once again, I did not check this site out. I have been reading the posts on this site. I feel bad because I found a job as a recent graduate. Maybe I can help someone. Just never give up! Here is the other job lead:
Rider and Associates are looking for entry level MTs. Please take their test.
http://rider.mttest.com/
I found a job after about a month of searching
I have read the threads with so many negative comments about Softscript, but they do hire new grads.
transcribers can be found on ebay
I got mine there, including shipping was around $40, and works like a charm!!! Looks brand new. ebay is my answer for darn near everything ... just pay close attention to descriptors and negative feedbacks (if any)
Glad you found it helpful! :) NM

Nevermind, I found it in the archives. nm
not everything works for the every person, but what i have found.....
I started out many years ago working for a few doctor's offices (neurosurgeon, infectious disease, oncologist, urologist) in the same building. I would pick up tapes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and deliver work those same days. I worked seven days a week back then (probably still do). After years of doing and the cost of gas skyrocketing, I realized it would be more beneficial for me to work for a service (either independent contractor or employee). I signed on with a national company (MedQuist). I know there are a lot of people out there who are not happy with MQ, but I am. My accounts are good, so I can make a good line count. The only problem is that my accounts are so good that there are many MT's working on them, and I tend to run out of work early in the day. I have signed on with an additional company to fill the void in my day.
I think I saw somewhere that MQ was hiring MT's with little or no experience. If that is the case, I would consider MQ or another national to get started.
I don't know anything about the benefits offered, as I rely on my husband for that.
Good luck.

I just went to their website
I just went to Lartech's website. No doubt about it being an Indian company. They may say they have headquarters in Texas, but with the internet, all (or bulk) of the work can go overseas just as easily as other outsourcing companies do. I checked several pages, there are typos and grammatical errors. It seems to me that alone speaks VOLUMES!
Good luck to you.
do you have a website for them?

I have found that avid readers make much better
decisions in regards to their grammar and the way they apply it. If you are an avid reader, then you can learn the traits of authors and writers. Maybe that is something one should ask when interviewing a new MT. Do you like to read books? On the other hand, seasoned MTs have learned from dictators that are great with grammar. I was fortunate in that regard. I have come across some beautiful dictators. Working on-site helps. The MD/DO is available to guide you in transcribing the report and to answer questions. Some things though are just understood in this profession, which makes it tough for new grads. Exposure on-site is the best "medicine"! Keep up the good work and encouraging words. It is nice to know there are others out there who still care about producing a professional document and not just the "cents per line" and how much can be produced in an hour. 
All those answers will be found in these very pages discussed

I found this nextag site: price 5.99 to 44.50:

(Here's the page I came off of to get to the "prices" URL: http://www.nextag.com/microsoft-word-2003/search-html . It has various MS Word 2003 packages. You might check it out also.)
I found the info by googling. Get used to researching,

it's not YOUR website and not YOUR opinion only on here
so we are allowed ours and you have absolutely NO RIGHT to chastise the other poster for her advice
grow up a little bit, mommy
I can't find a website. I think
they should give more information about the company than they did if people are to send their sensitive information by e-mail.
Med-Tech website is
www.med-tech.net and that is the correct one for Northeast.
website for mRecord
http://www.mrecord.com/
This is their website.
I went to their website and from what it said they are feeding
you a bunch of *rap and I wouldn't waste my money. Andrews and M-Tec are the best, Career Step after them. Sure they cost more, but you get what you pay for.
You can go to H&R Block's website
They have a tax estimator calculator on their website. I think it's on the middle of the homepage somewhere.
Link to Website
Here is a link to the transcription program page offered by MSU-Bottineau.
http://www.misu-b.nodak.edu/OnlineCampus/onlineprograms/dip_medicaltranscription.html
check this website
http://www.histopathology-india.net/EDCa.htm
Read the website
Read the AHDI website under Under CMT elibibility it states.... "Although any candidate is eligible and granted permission to take the CMT certification exam, two-years of transcription experience in the acute care (or equivalent) setting is strongly suggested for success on the exam."
So apparently they have changed their mandatory 2- years of experience requirement.
I've hired from that school before and have found CAIs SM
graduates to be severely undertrained with lack of basic skills. I've hired several of their graduates and none of them worked out. That's how I know it's not a quality school.
I always found the tests more difficult than actual work (sm)
I think they try you out on their most difficult to see how you do. It also may be the stress of taking a test too. I tested with anyone who would let me test, and I failed a lot of them, but just keep trying. Persistence does pay off. It sounds like you have a great start and you should probably stay where you are to get the experience. Yes, it will count. Best of luck to you!
Ooops! Nevermind So. I found the answer from the posts below. Thanks. :-)

Found a great deal on ebay for those interested
Stethoscope style headphones with pc style plug in for $8.99 shipped.
Item number: 320296944311
I'll be purchasing myself a few as well. 50 available.
Found a company that is willing to give new MT graduates a chance
Hello,
A company called World Direct Transcription Services, called me yesterday. And she asked me a couple of questions, and then asked me if i would take 2 tests. I said yes of course! One test is a terms test, other is a typing test, also she wanted me to go to a certain website and take a speed typing test too. I will let everyone know today if i get hired.

The Department of Labor website
has tables that should answer your question. There is no absolute answer. There are so many variables that responses from individual MTs would apply strictly to those MTs with their particular skills in their particular locations and not necessarily equate to your situation. Best to check the DoL site for your locale.
I didn't use a dating website...
but I met my husband online in an AOL chat room. We now have 2 kids and have been together almost 7 years.
I just went to the RS website and the part # I gave you
is selling there for $6.97, but I paid about $17.00 for mine. There is a part #26-728 that is described as a USB to game port adapter for about $17.00, so maybe the new model # is an upgrade from the previous one. It doesn't show a picture of the part, but does show it is being in stock. I also went to e-bay and didn't spend much time looking but they also have an adapter that is not a Radio Shack one, but should do the same thing based on the description. You can check local stock on-line at Radio Shack without having to go to the store. Maybe it is so new they don't have it in stores yet, since they don't even have a picture on the website. Good luck to you.
I didn't go to their website, but I knew they
probably weren't legit because they used 2 different names on 2 different boards to post about their "internship."
Their website looks like a school of some type. sm
Were you offered a job, or are they trying to sell you a training course in MT? If the latter, I wouldn't take it. I don't see anything on their website about hiring transcriptionists.
Stedman's is the best. You can download from their website or
order the CD.
False claim on their website...sm
I graduated from M-TEC's Premier Program, and there are 2425 minutes of dictation available (with an extra 1000 minutes of optional dictation available). My training at M-Tec prepared me VERY well, and I had a job within a week of graduating and had very little problem transitioning from M-TEC's practice dictations to real live dictations.
Here is good website for you, David.
