Softscript has called me at the end of August to work for them.  I tested and passed the test.  Then I received tons of emails with attachments to fill out paperwork.  They called a few times to hurry up and get them in. Actually, they called 4 times saying it has to be handwritten, etc.  I finally got it all sent to them.  IT called and installed all my software, etc.  Then I received emails to contact training to set up a day and time for training.  I have emailed them to just get a ticket number with no other response.  I have called them just to be transferred and get voicemail.  I have left messages and so forth with no response.  It's like they are completely ignoring me.  I decided to give up on them because I don't want to work for a company like this thinking if they are treating me like this now, what would it be like if I did go ahead and work for them, especially what I have read on these posts about them.  Has this happened to anyone of you?  Just courious.  I don't think there is a decent company to work for today.

I'm tired of running out of work with my current employer.  Anyone working for someone using the Escription platform that is hiring and has an abundance of work?

Any info from an insider appreciated.  Thanks.

Has anyone at TT worked on both?.  I have *heard* Escription is much better, but I have also heard the pay for each is about the same.  Anyone have any knowledge on this subject?

Thanks!

I am a QA looking for a new job with hourly pay... can anyone tell me which companies pay QA by the hour?

Thanks!

the pay scale and congrads to you! 

Took this straight from the PRN ad on the job board. We offer dedicated accounts, direct deposit, flexible scheduling and competative...     Just makes me sick when a company can't even spell for an ad. 

Sent in the initial application, got an immediate E-mail with some different questions on it which I submitted 2 days ago. 

Really want to work for this company part time for now, possibly full time later. 

Any info appreciated.

You are having such a horrid time filling those job positions that I am willing to give it a go, but only for 12 cpl. Let me know. Yours very truly.

You are free to inquire about specific companies here on the Company board but not post about wanting a job in general, etc.

We have a free Job Seekers board available and you may post your resume on our free resume bank for potential employers to peruse.

Does anyone know anything about Sten-Tel?  Is  this a good company?

TIA

Hi everyone!!

I was just notified by Telescribe that I did very well on their test and that I would be contacted about an IC position. Does anyone work for or have info about this company?

Thanks,

Michelle C

you can hear so that you can actually type what is being said or are they all so distorted so bad that no one could possibly make out what is being said???  I currently started looking and so far I haven't gotten a test yet that I can possibly make out more than half of what is being said.  I am starting to get discouraged. 

Thanks.

I work on the Chartmatrix side. Has anyone else experienced a sharp decline in work? My primary account is practically nonexistent, so I am pretty much completely dependent on my backup accounts, which are awful. Not what I signed up for. Something is going on, but I can't get answers.

I have seen posts about J & J. Any updates on that?

Their ad sounds like what I'm looking for, but it seems like there was negative discussion about them a while back.

Any would be appreciated:)

I'm sorely tempted to look into a QA position and I was wondering how the compensation compared to transcribing.  I would love to be paid hourly, but it seems most offer by-the-line pay.  I know there are variables (platform, ESL, etc.) but I'm trying to come up with some type of comparable compensation formula just as a jumping-off point for negotiation.  Anyone care to elaborate on what they're earning, how they're paid, and how this compares to their transcribing earnings? 

Any opinions.  Keystrokes sounds insanely good, but with everybody going there to work, I am afraid they will be overbooked.  I heard Smartmed was hard dictation. Is this possibly truth?
