Advanced Transcription, Inc, out of Oregon?
Noticed they had a posting on MTJobs looking for ICs. Did a search but "advanced transcription" is hard to find both here and in search engines without it being about schools. Anyone with experience? Pay on time? Steady work? Etc?

I'm thinking of applying but I always like to hear about companies first.

TIA

Need on Advanced Transcription out of Oregon...SM
Wondering if they have flexible shifts or if you have to stick to a certain timeframe everyday, and whether or not you can just do clinic work or if they require the big 4.

Any other info such as how you liked the job, etc., would be great, too.
Are you asking about Advanced Transcription in Oregon?

Advanced Transcription out of Oregon
They ask that you give them which 3 days of the week you'll be working for part-time though, but the TAT is 24 hours.  You may want to check them out.  www.advancedtx.com I think is the site. 
Think you have the wrong Advanced Transcription. This one is in Oregon..

Scratching my head on this one...


If you were one of the recent applicants for Advanced Transcription in Oregon ...SM
Are any of you still hearing back or is the hiring over, I wonder? I sent my application in but pretty late by the time I saw the message.

If any of you have started already, how do you like it? Are they really that flexible that you just log on and work when you want as long as you meet a minimum number of lines a week? How does the QA work...what if you have blanks?

I guess any info would be appreciated, even though I'm probably not going to get in on it this time around, it seems.

Thanks.
Does Axolotl offer a flexible schedule?

Yes, Advanced is in Oregon.
I think it is 600 lines a day three days per week for part-time, but I am not sure about full-time.  IC position.  I think you do have to be on an instant messenger though. 
Advanced in Oregon???
They run out of work on accounts, and then expect you to pick up and just learn a new one on a moment's notice.  You have to have MSN messenger and be accountable if you need to step out and give them notice if you're not working a particular day that you have to commit to working (they leave that out until you are all signed on and set-up).  The platform is clunky.  The recruiter is nice at first, of course, aren't they all?  Then, you get to working and the accounts run out.     This was my experience.  I dropped 'em; IC to me equals freedom, not chained to the desk.  Sorry...
NEMT and Advanced in Oregon...
are two I'm familiar with and would recommend either... NEMT I believe is hiring, saw their ad not long ago. Feel free to email me with specific questions if you'd like. Good luck!
I did work for Advanced in Oregon

You have to tell them which days you'll be working and have to e-mail them if you cannot stick to your schedule and if you are a no show (which is not in my opinon IC work), then they'll terminate you. 


Advanced uses Iscriptor and it's clunky.  They run out of work and switch you to another account with a large learning curve.  You are also monitored on messenger.


Flexible schedule
This comes up a lot, but you have to look at it from their point of view. You are an employee and therefore expected to work a scheduled shift. They can't have their MTs signing on and working whenever they please they have to know the accounts are covered. Hey, if that's the worst thing we can say about them, then that's a really good thing. They really are worth giving up a weekend and 3 holidays a year for all the benefits of being a Transtech MT. I've worked for several companies, including some of the big boys, none can compare to TransTech. I'll be with them until I retire.
flexible schedule
MDI of Maryland allows a 24-hour window to do whatever lines you commit to.  I work for them and have a flexible schedule.  Phone 301-921-2006.  Tell them you want to get in touch with Carlotta.
if they have the flexible schedule you want, then
you sound like you're just out here to pitch MDI-MD.
Flexible schedule at Transtech? sm
How flexible is the scheduling at Transtech?  I'm interested in the weekend position but would need lots of flexibility...Thanks!
Flexible schedule on my account.....

Company with flexible schedule

I'm an MT with 6+ years of acute care experience and a mom of 4.  I love working at night when kids are in bed.  I like the company I work for but they are starting to get very picky about working the assigned schedule.  I received a call today stating that if was not going to be typing for a 5 minutes or more I am to log out.  The problem is that I don't know how long it will take to calm down an upset child or lookup a new medication for the report I'm working on. 


So the bottom line is that I need a company that will be flexible with my schedule.  I would really llike to find a company that hires ICs.  So is there anyone out there that works for a company who offers a flexible schedule? I,m willing to run out of work occasaionlly and I love working at night and on the weekend.  I would even take a pay cut to get a company that will work with me.


 


Thanks,



Mariah


Really? Are they hiring? I need a flexible schedule...
nm (no message)
It just means you have a flexible schedule,
as long as all accounts are covered when they need to be, you can change your schedule around. Where I work we have that also, we just submit each week when we will be working.
8 cpl to start, 8.5 cpl when off QA. Flexible schedule. Use ExText. nm

Information on axolotl. Is it a fixed or flexible schedule?
Are you off all major holidays or do you have to have them approved and how many weeks paid vacation do you get?
Pay on time? Flexible schedule? Decent accounts?

Companies with flexible 12-hour window schedule
What companies offer a flexible schedule where your work can be completed within a 12-hour window?
Acute and/or clinic work? Set schedule or flexible hours? Thank you! nm

Why would anyone what to work for practically nothing. I make 5 cpl editing, flexible schedule etc.
As long as they can get people to take those ridiculous wages that is what they will offer. Your an IC so you have no benefits, thus they do not have much of an overhead and you can bet they are getting a whole heck of a lot more cpl than they are offering their MTs.. but I guess that is the only reason they are in business... to make a huge profit. Unfortunately, at YOUR expense. What a sad day... 1.5 cpl..
They offer DD, and they were pretty flexible for IC
although they did ask for a loose schedule. I'm not sure how flexible they are with employee status. For the most part, they pretty much leave you alone as long as you are doing your job, but they do have their psychotic moments. MT pay is fairly competitive, but Editor pay is bottom of the barrel. There are pros and cons there, just like with anywhere else. Pay is every 2 weeks.
Does TT Offer Flexible Hours For ICs
I've been reading all the wonderful posts about TransTech. I saw on their web site where they require 5 years experience. I have only 4, and I'm looking for part time or p.r.n. hours. Does anyone know if they hire with flexible working hours? Thanks so much, and congrats to all who have been hired. It's refreshing to read posts like this.
Need good small company to work for with flexible schedule - e-mail me.nm

What companies offer FLEXIBLE schedules for
full time employees?  I am willing to work the hours required for full time status, but I am in college too and I have to have the flexibility - my schedule changes every semester.  Can anybody point me to ANY good companies who let you work whenever you want as long as you get your hours in?  And I am not interested in IC - only working as an employee.  Thanks!
DSG is awesome-pay on time, management is great, plenty of work, flexible schedule. nm

do Etransplus and probity offer true flexible scheduling
or do you have to follow a set schedule?  Thank you in advance for all your input.
greenlight transcription - oregon
I found a post from last year that said you could not be productive because of too many fields to fill in  Does anyone think what that might mean?  I'm thinking too many demographics but not sure.  Does anyone know anything about them other than they use edmat platform and IC position
Greenlight Transcription in Oregon?
Anyone have any info on this company? Thank you. 
@dvanced transcription out of Oregon
I've been hired. I thought it would be neat to have some fellow co-workers added to the Spark IM program they use. If you want to do this, please send me a message.
Denmed Transcription out of Salem, Oregon.. Anyone??
Just wondering if anyone has any information out there on this company. Thanks.
Yes, Greenlight Transcription out of Oregon and StatIQ out of NM..

Denmed Transcription out of Salem, Oregon.. Anyone??

Not sure if you ever got a reply back to your posted question about DENMED.


DENMED is a Salem, Oregon MT business that in my biased opinion is GREAT.  Not only do they treat their staff honestly and fairly (yes I did work for them) but they also treat their clientele with the utmost respect.  They handle both large and small accounts.  Hope this helps.  I have included a link to their website.

INfo on Greenlight Transcription in Portland, Oregon

What platform do they use and is it friendly?  I had heard they only paid 6 cpl.. is that true, or hopefully more?? 


Old posts from 2007 give glowing reviews, but in 2 years things can happen, and no line rates were posted back then.


Thanks for any info. 


Advanced Transcription
I thought their platform was really slow and I could never make any money switching back and forth through the system.  Frustrating!!  I would work several hours sometimes and make less than 10 or 12 bucks because of all the switching around, cutting and pasting, etc.  Good luck!
Advanced Transcription
I am currently testing for Advanced. Does anybody have any info on them? Thanks!

Can anyone give me any information on Advanced Transcripion in Portland, OR? 


 


Advanced Transcription
Really appreciate the prompt and honest feedback. Thanks.
Advanced Transcription
Is this company run by Joy Pickett? or somebody named Donna? If so, run. Since my experience with them of not being paid on time and having to threaten to go to BBB and everybody else I could think of to get my pay, this is the first time I have heard anything good. Everyone else who responded to me had the same horror story to tell. They are also known as Alliance or Allied transcription. That is why I asked who was running the show. They are sweet people but that doesn't pay the bills.
Advanced Transcription

I have subcontracted for Advanced Transcription out of Portland, Oregon for almost 3 yrs.  It's a great company.  We always have plenty of work.  They have direct deposit and pay on time or early.  The platform is easy to learn.  If you are looking for work, check them out.  You will not be disappointed. 


Advanced Transcription
Pay was average but regular.  Management could be very rude, unprofessional and disorganized.  They would tell you one thing and then forget what they told you to do.  Platform had a lot of technical glitches.  I wouldn't recommend them. You could probably do better elsewhere.  I did!
Advanced Transcription
They might have gotten their act together. I wish you luck!
