Newbie looking for an opportunity
So far I have searched and emailed about 50 companies. I haven't had a great experience. I know that being new your not 100% accurate therefore can someone guide me in the direction I need to go in.
Mentoring opportunity
I am a medical Transcriptionist who has over 15 years of experience and also have taught medical transcription and provided quality evaluations for graduating students at the college level. I am in the process of revamping my medical transcription business and have a spot for two either graduates or soon to be graduates to intern.
The internship will be paid at a starting rate of 0.06 cpl (65 char with spaces) while in training and then will go to 0.07 cpl. This is an wonderful opportunity to gain much needed experience as well as allowing you the opportunity to work from home.
Just reply by email if you are interested and tell me a bit about yourself for consideration.
I personally think this is a great opportunity
Don't let the post below deter you. When I started, a facility graciously took me on with no experience and pretty much trained me in this business. When I first started 12 years ago, I received a wage of only $7.69/hour with some incentives, but I was thankful for the opportunity to get my foot in the door and did gradually work my way up from 6.5 cpl at my first remote job from home to currently 9 cpl. This is the norm for a new MT with no experience. We've all been there and started at the bottom! Three years ago my sister started out at 6.5 cpl and now makes 8.5 cpl.
you are all missing the point!
MANY companies hire even before graduation if you went to a good school and are able to pass their employment test.
I recently had missing reports,
but I found out that I had not signed in or out correctly so the reports for that day were not counted in the total "clocked in" amount. They were accounted for and paid, but just did not show when I checked my status. With this company, I have to clock in and out. What got confusing was that sometimes the platform did not ask me to clock in, although I always exited and logged out. Maybe your problem is as simple as mine was, just a thought.
you are missing the point - I am happily employed too but I see it's not going to last
you don't get to keep jobs by "wishing" you know. I am making anywhere from 12c to 14c to 19c on my own accounts but that doesn't change the fact that technology will virtually eliminate MT as we know it in the next decade. Nothing wrong with teaching newbies how to watch and analyze trends.
You're missing all the comments on the MQ board! Read some more;

Uh, you're missing my tongue-in-cheek point! :)) NM
