they have been talked about several times recently. They are an Indian company and no one has had anything good to say about them.

If you spent any time at all reading this board you'll
see what a struggle it is for newbies to get jobs at home. If you go to one of the better schools your chances are better, but still no guarantee. I think anyone looking to get into this field now is crazy. Lots of work being offshored and lots of working going to ASR, which leaves fewer jobs for available. j
Check the company board -sm
I've seen talk on there of several companies that hire new grads.
I actually got hired at MQ right out of school - but it was a much different company then. I worked there for 3-1/2 years and bailed when the first signs of sinking occured. 
I honestly only have experience with them and the company I'm currently at - and I don't think my current one hires new grads. Check out the company board though and I'm sure you'll find a company that will make you much happier than MQ could.
Check the company board. These same
questions have been asked multiple times the past couple of weeks. I didn't see anything good about them.
Check the company board for info on them.

I just wanted to let you know that it is possible for a new MT to get a job with a national company. I did it, and I just graduated in December. Just keep putting out those resumes and testing. It will happen!! God bless!

Thank you! I'll let her know that!:-)...nm

I'll say hello!
Hello!
I'm actually quite new here too. Still trying to get used to the software. :-)
And i'll bet a lot of them have CMT behind their name. nm
You get what you pay for. Don't waste $442. You'll need it. SM
You can't learn MT for that.
I'll play!!
Aside from waiting for lessons to be graded and relentless job searching, I have nothing else to do that involves using my brain. Please post the word jumble. I will do my best!
Just hang in there....you'll get use to them

With Andrews and M-Tec you'll get a job.
With Andrews and M-Tec, you'll get a job, and it will be a good job. Simple as that.
They teach more and they teach it better.
Yes, sadly, everyone has heard of AHP, as well as the miseries their graduates go through trying to find a job. No major employer, to our knowledge, will waive the experience requirements for them. They don't even get an opportunity to take employment tests.
There are more, but I'm busy. You'll notice
they refused to resolve it until after the BBB contacted them.
they'll fire you for not enough QUANTITY too, though!
lol
well, tell that the MT that just lost her job. I'm sure she'll feel better.

I'll say good for you, instead of being a hater like below.
Keep up the good work!
I'll believe it when I hear from others getting their money.

You'll do great, as it sounds like
you've already done your "homework". Best of luck to you!
4 cpl editing VR is about as good as you'll get.
the straight typing portion varies greatly on cpl.
Of course it does. But I'm one of the ones near retirement, so I'll just ride it out until it

I'll give you a figure....
If you are working full time, to be on the safe side I would not expect to do more than 800 lines per day to begin with. You may get up to 1,000 after a period of time, say 3-6 months...maybe. As far as average length of dictation, there is no such thing. A VERY general ratio is 4:1 (4 minutes transcribing/proofing 1 minute of dictation), and that is after some experience. HTH
She'll need a pedal to test.
You'll need a pedal to test for companies unless you want to look slow by using your F keys.
I'll let you in on a secret. If they have global in their name they
offshore work, if the company itself isn't offshore. You can look through the archives for past info, if there is any.

They'll need your SS# to issue your 1099 at the end of the year.

6 cpl is too much for someone just starting out. If they're good, you'll know it & can up the
rate from there. If they suck, you'll know it, too, and can either take the chance of training them or cut them loose. I know it's brutal, but it's honest and it's business.
Bad school. If you do a search using abbreviation you'll
get more info. I'm not sure what other abbreviations you are talking about, if company abbreviations or the usual internet appreviations like DH for dear husband. You can look on the classified board here for a foot pedal, you need USB-1. You can also look on E-bay, or do a Google search for companies that sell new. A new one would cost anywhere between $65 and $80. If you go to the ExpressScribe website I think they sell them now.
If you read through the past posts here you'll
see that M-Tec and Andrews were the best. They help with placement and most grads have a job by the time they finish up. Career Step is the next choice.
Search for comments, but I don't think they'll hire newbies. nm

As you'll hear 1000 times, there IS no school that SM
can offer an MT certificate. You have to take the test through AAMT.
Also, what offices and hospitals want? A person who can sit down and do their work without a lot of discussion or BS. Just get the work out, make it correct. I was in a hiring position for several years at the largest hospital in my state. I didn't care about certification. I cared about test performance.
Of course a CMT behind your name means A LOT. That test is very difficult and, for the most part, if you have passed that test, no more discussion is necessary.
Only if you'll get into voice recognition and editorship. Look at how many hits a job on the job
s
Don't worry - you'll learn all that basic stuff
in school. They used to teach it in secretarial classes, of course, but if you know you want to be an MT, go to one of the top schools (M-Tec and Andrews), and you will be ready when it's time to test.
Who knows, maybe she'll show up at your chiropractor and undercut YOUR rates. NM

I'll sign that one...I quit reading her posts about a month ago
because they are so negative and condescending. If she was nearly as smart as she thought she was, she would be kinder. I haven't read one of her posts in at least a month. If I see her name as the poster, I simply skip that particular message. She is a nasty individual, in my opinion anyway.
