If you read down the postings some, you will see my postings--sm
as to the reason why. I do not have the time to restate what I posted just a few days ago. Just look for the Stentel postings and read them. thanks and good luck.
Evidently not
We only have our editors on ONE account.
I tried to look up MDI-MD in archives and evidently
you can't put initials in because it brought up nothing. But I was in a discussion last week about MDI-MD and I know they are IC. I thought there was also a post that said how much you get paid during training but I can't find it. If any MDI-MDers could answer this I would appreciate it. Is there a set amount they pay for training? Couldn't find it on website either. Thanks. 
It is evidently a no-no big time...

I asked if they were still in business a couple of weeks ago and was told to stop trying to stir things up. I just wanted to know. My personal belief is that they have asked for anything about them to be deleted.


Evidently some accounts are better than others (sm)
and the new hires obviously get the ones that are not as conducive to a good paycheck as they have been proven to not be as good and others have moved off them. The account I was on MDI had supposedly had for several years yet it was way behind and understaffed. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
Evidently you don't take constructive criticism well. sm
Doing emotional, impulsive, unprofessional things in business will always make you lose. To top it off, you've done these things and used your name on the boards. I'm amazed you would think this company should let you use their email to spread negativity about the company. All combined, you're not too bright, are you?
She didn't. Evidently you need to go back and reread. nm

hope so! they're hiring like crazy now, editors & MTs evidently ~nm

Evidently things haven't changed since I left. Sounds like they've gotten worse - LOL

That's probably most of them except for the top 5-7 that advertise over and
s
Yes, we DO advertise for MT's!
Why do you thik it's so? It's because we are getting new accounts each and every week. How do you like them apples? It's because we have very high standards and have to replace those who can't cut it. Its because we LOVE giving people work when they are in need of work to earn a living for their families, and we have plenty for them to make a very good living. We have a huge recruiting team because we are always in search of the best, the brightest, the most ethical, the most honest, the hardest working and the most successful of all the MT's around. We are NOT interested in those who spend hours chating in various gripe boards when you should be typing. It clearly explains why either you are NO longer here, or why you couldn't get here in the first place.  
They sure advertise like crazy!
Hope its cuz they have lots 'O work?
They advertise they start at 8 cpl
and go to 10, so you know this one has a few wires crossed upstairs. n
Trying to Advertise my letter...
in the Toledo Blade myself. They told me that the advertising managers will have to review my article and decide if they will let me do it. I don't know what it will cost to do it, but I am sure going to try!!!!

I will send it to Lou Dobbs now.
Transhealth-They used to advertise all the sm
time here for MTs, haven't seen an ad in forever. Wonder why? 
They seem to advertise a good bit .... SM
often on MTJobs.com which is where their current ad is.
They used to advertise they pay scale as -
9-11 cpl.  PRN status is 7.5 cpl.  From what I heard recently, they are trying to lower their MT pay expense (not investment), so if you ever were to get off 9 cpl it would surprise me.
The good ones don’t advertise? Then why, tell me
when I looked at the listings for jobs at only the 10th one down I found an ad from Transcend? I guess they have to go over to the bad companies, right for advertising?
Email the website where they advertise for MTs - sm

They will remove them from future advertising as they are reputable website.


I have not seen them advertise in a long time.
I have never heard anything negative about them to my recollection though.
I have not seen them advertise in a long time.
I know their recruiter left and I really have not seen any ads. They do have a banner on this site though.
When I advertise, I give all that information as
well as all information related to the job.

I worked for one company once that had their pre-canned ads. I hated them because they told nothing. They did give their website, but it was way old.

I agree that all companies that advertise for MTs need to give their website
How did you come to apply with them? I have never heard of them or seen them advertise.
Wish you the best though
Could someone please explain to me how Focus can advertise for a QC
when they just laid off a bunch of people and told them they had nothing to offer them but transcription?
P.S. - I don't even know why they are allowed to advertise on this board because....sm
their US QA gets audited by guess who???  The team leaders which are not from the US and are based overseas....lovely, eh?
We want companies to advertise - not drive them away.
Please do not mock their offers.

They will advertise and talk hourly, but sm
when the actual offer comes, it is BY LINE ONLY.  M.L. is posting on any web site that will have him about his job openings and they are now so desperate they will take an MT with only 8 months experience.
does Amphion advertise that they now offshore?
nm

Was I dreaming or did a certain company advertise for ESL MTs at 15 to 20 cpl a week or so ago and

now it's suddenly 9 to 13 cpl?  I tried to take their test and one of the questions they asked was what you were making. 


 


Maybe I was dreaming.  I copied the ads I applied to and that one seems to be missing.


Instead of only applying with companies that advertise heavily,
try Googling for transcription companies, perhaps in your home state, and go to their websites. They usually have a way to apply on their website, and they won't be receiving 300 resumes the same day yours arrives. Send your resume to several and you might hit the timing right with one or two, or perhaps they will keep your resume for when they do have an opening.
Did you see that they want 9 test files done??!! And they advertise as a Global
s
I though offshore companies could not advertise on this site?
Guess I am wrong about that.
http://www.ustranscription.com/....they advertise on a different job board...nm
;o)
I personally don't advertise in the Yellow Pages because I was getting a lot of sm
calls from housewives who know how to type *real good*. Or people who wanted to do this because they saw in a magazine that you can make a lot of money in your free time!
Why do companies advertise for jobs if they have no work?

I lost my job with a big offshoring company a couple of months ago.  I knew it was coming so I started applying for jobs and sending my resume for posted jobs.  The company that hired me responded to my resume submission within 2 HOURS and I was hired the next day.  They had an immediate need, speciality I love, good pay.  Now, a couple of months later I am getting calls and e mails from companies that I applied to months ago.  One recruiter said, I don't know when we received your application, it was probably 90 days ago.  During this same time period I have seen the Q advertise twice, claiming they have steady work (????)  Of course, after reading posts here I would not even consider any offer from them.  A lady from Spheris e mailed and ask that I let her know a time I could interview some time in the next several weeks.


I don't get it.  If you do not have work, why are you posting jobs?  I would consider this a big red flag.


Accuscribe

All right people, listen up.  I was hired by Accuscribe.  Let me tell yu about their practices (I have already contacted the Attorney General's office in South Carolina). I tested, then they sent me a thing saying they were setting me up for training and was going to be paid $9.75 an hour (for training and for any work).  I had not even received a letter stating I was hired until two days later.  I trained and the Director of QA was supposed to and I called her two times, left messages and finally 3 days later she called me.  Her name is Monica Haddox. She explained to me that and I quote "you are paid for 40 hours and you better be on because we check", ok not a problem.  She then went on to explain that if you don't meet youro minimum line count, they take money away from you.  She also told me that she would send me a letter by email in the mail that day.  Never received it. 


So I started to work on Saturday, the 16th of July (now mind you I had training hours of almost 16, which I was to be paid for).  There was no work.  I called the office and told them and talked to several people and finally the supervisor on call called me.  We got into a heated argument and then calmed down and I was to log on to their system on Monday, which I did.  I sat there for 1-1/2 hours and no work.  Finally there was work and I was doing it.  I was told that when you start there you can ONLY do a clinic account, which I was doing.  So I am typing away and I get this account I know nothing about.  I call and their response was "This is a brand new account. We are trying to figure it out."  DUH.  So i wrote back and asked them why I was doing a new account that nobody knew anything about, when I was told I would be working on this certain account.  Monica calls me up and asks me if there was a problem " and I said yes".  I explained to her that all the things she had told me about this job were not the same as what the HR person told me.  So she said " well I have backed you out of the system and you are fired for insubordination.  I said " YAY.  Thank God".  she asked me to send her my hours, which I did, which were 30.  Today I get a check in the mail for $6.68 cents.  I am appalled.  I even talked to the owner.  She was very indignant with me and said she didn't like the way I talked about her company and i said " perhaps you need to talk to your staff and make sure they are all on the same page".  I have, in the meantime, put a call into Accuscribe from South Carolina and told them that I would be contacting the Attorney General in South Carolina, which I did.  Doesn't make a difference if they fired me or not, they owe me for 30 hours at 9.75 an hour, which is also clearly stated in the advertisment on this board.  Beware People.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Watch out what companies you are dealing with.


 


Accuscribe
I have written to the Attorney General in South Carolina where the company is based out of and I have also contacted the US Government Waga and Labor Division and I don't even care if my whole name is on here because I have nothing to hide
Accuscribe - sm
You Go Girl!!! Finally, someone who posts EXACTLY what happens and doesn't make vague statements that leave us wondering. I admire your post and the guts to do it! Good luck getting your money, and I hope your actions teach them a lesson.
Accuscribe
there is no need to make vague statements...facts are facts.. I would want someone to tell me the truth about a company.  This company is ridiculous.  first of all, I should have gone with my gut feeling when they wanted me to be trained BEFORE i even got a job offer.
Accuscribe
I just talked to the accounting department today. The lady said well you didn't send me a timesheet, which i was again told by Monica Haddox, that they didn't require one. So Ms. Haddox told me that TODAY was payday for hourly employees (another thing I couldn't get out of anyone WHEN payday was). She told me the $6.68 was a check for going over my minimum. That was not explained either that you would receive a check for your hours and a check for going over the minimum. I just thought I would mention this just in case THEY do happen to pay me for the 30 hours. I have never seen such a disorganized company. At any rate, in fairness to the company, I will re-post here if I do get the check they said they are sending today.
Accuscribe
In all fairness, I am writing to tell everyone the problem has been resolved. I will be getting a check for the 30 hours I worked; however, this does not make this company okay.  They way they operated was absolutely ludicrous.  Hopefully, everyone searching for a place to work will diligently research companies and ask lots of questions and above all GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING before you accept.
Accuscribe

It is August 2nd.  I inquired about my paycheck that Accuscribe owes me.  Well they send it certified mail to the WRONG address.  So Accuscribe gave me a tracking number. I notified the post office that something was sent to me as a certified mail at th wrong address.  They sent notes to other post offices so they would be aware of what the real address was.  So now the post office and I have been dealing back and forth about this issue.  they call me today and tell me that Accuscribe requested that the "certified " package be sent back to the company.  Need I go on?  Well i will anyway...LOL


 


I call the accounting department and tell her what the post office told me.  Her response " I don't know anything about that".  I only do payroll for the company.  So here is what I said " Put a stop-payment on the original check and send me another check overnight".  She said " Dont you threaten me".  I said "Oh honey, this is not a threat", and I said " I have already contacted the Attorney General for South Carolina".  Next is the BBB (Better Business Bureau).  I am my sole support and it has been since July 18th that I have been waiting for this check.  Need I say how P'd off I am.  And I don't know why I am surprised about, this is how the company operates.  When I was hired (finally) and started, I no idea what my days of work would be, I kept asking when is payday.. They GIVE you no answers.  In my estimation, ladies, Please stay away from this company.  The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.  I really am upset and don't even know what to do now.  Any suggestions?


Accuscribe
Any information out there on Accuscribe (company)?
AccuScribe in CA?

anyone know anything about Accuscribe in CA run by someone named Susan Rojo?  What is the pay like?  Pay periods (weekly, monthly??)  Work load any good?


Thanks all!

AccuScribe in CA
I worked for her briefly. I liked working for her. I was paid by paycheck, but was told paypal could be set up.

Work was coming in too late in the day for me,so I had to leave.

Generally a great person to work for and I did get paid.
accuscribe
Disorganized isn't the word for it!! Is a place where people change positions like changing clothes a good company to work for?


I think not
Accuscribe (sm)
doesn't pay for spaces. Used to use DocQscribe; heard they were changing. Owner very supportive of MTs, supports exchanges of info, very professional. Read paperwork/contracts carefully. Someone told me she had to sign a noncompete agreement just to test. That seems out of line to me.
accuscribe
does anybody have an opinion about accuscribe?  they have offered me a job and i want to be careful, but how careful can you be when your bank account is screaming for money??
accuscribe
oh thank you!  i need the money really bad.
Accuscribe
Have a relative who works there.  Said they're nice folks, but they don't pay for spaces.  Use DocQScribe platform.
