Are you talking about the one with the 2 radiology jobs? I didn't hear back either...nm

MTjobs
Honestly, I am looking for something similar.  Unfortunately, have been and nothing.  Twenty plus years in this business and it is getting worse.  The pay is horrible, what the companies get away with is unbelievable, and this industry is going down the toilet fast. 
mtjobs.com has nothing to do with
What is your point? I don't understand. Did you read the posts in this string?
They have an ad up right now on mtjobs.com, #6. nm

i mean mtjobs sry

MTjobs.com
I typed in Radiology in the keyword search on this site, and it pulled up a bunch of job postings by companies looking for Radiology MTs.  Have you looked there already or tried those companies?
COMPANIES ON MTJobs.com
What is it with all of these companies that keep posting over and over on MTJobs.com???  Same companies, over and over and over and over.  My suspicion is because they absolutely can hold on to NO help.  Any other opinions on this and just how much stock does anyone else take in those companies?

Check out MTJobs on the web.
it think it is on about the second page of jobs... a company out of California that starts with a P
mtjobs.com and the job bank here..sm
Both have employee jobs listed.  I know Med-Scribe, Focus (don't automatically count them out, not all have had bad experiences), WebmedX, eTransPlus and a couple others are hiring employees. 
MTjobs is another good one
Google *medical transcription jobs* and see what happens.
Check the ads on mtjobs.com. Remember seeing a few. nm

I did and have been contacted by 4 companies.  Talked on the phone to 2 different people and 1 was definitely better than the other in terms of pay.   I'm just doing this to fill a gap until I get more clients for my own company but it's a living.

Radiology job on MTJobs paying 75 cents per report...
Will we be reduced to pennies?  There is no way you can make a living at 75 cents per report.
Will we be able to see all the pages?
Cannot go to the 2nd page now.
well done! this could go 10 pages, lol.

Their listing on mtjobs.com (#11) still has them in Wisconsin. A contact likes working for them,
s
they only had 100 pages to type!

I already have a job.  If I were trying to nab a full time job, I would have been more careful, but the woman told me she needed someone to help out ASAP, like this afternoon.... so I squeezed in the typing test during my regular work.  She needs help with 100 reports and then bye bye, so I really didn't think spongebob would make a difference to her.


 


Look on pages 9, 10, 11 of the archives,
there's more info there too. 
Yep saw that. They think 10-15 pages an hour.?? sm
This is to coincide with their proposed hourly pay. They get their calculators out and think HEY this sounds good.

They have absolutely no IDEA how long a page takes and what expertise is involved. $1.10 a page. They equate women with typing and this shows value (under-valued, second class, purchased commodity.
Cherrypicking is when you work from a pool of jobs and being able to reject the worst jobs to those

Look through the yellow pages of your local

phone book and call agents that offer health insurance.  Make several calls.  I did this when we needed private insurance and each call I made I got a lower premium, although every company had the very same insurance.  Celtic is what we found to be the lowest.  We no longer have this insurance as we have insurance through DH job, but we had no existing conditions, no regular meds, nonsmokers, so I'm not sure if these were covered.   I'd keep calling about COBRA.  The company has to offer it.   If you go 45 days without insurance and have a pre-existing condition you are in trouble, unless things have changed since we got insurance.  There is a temporary insurance through Fortis that is very cheap, but the deductible is very high and it doesn't cover pre-existing conditions.


I'd stay away from the association for the self-employed or whatever it is called.  When I called them their rates were double what I could get a private policy for and it was the same insurance.  


 


Go thru the last 4 pages here. They have been discussed recently. nm

Any way you can search recent pages w/o having to go to each one

Scroll down a couple pages (sm)
There are a few posts about them, nothing good that I saw.  I do remember complaints about not enough work and the owner needing to sharpen up on his communication and people skills.
What? There are a ton of TT MTs posting here. Scroll through the last few pages.
I would estimate that 95% of what you see posted here about TT is positive.
I agree 10 pages to long sm

A while back I applied with a co who sent me a 45 min test file.  I did 20 minutes of the file and sent it back.  I explained that I felt 45 minutes was excessive.  They asked me to work for them.  So you never know. 


That being said, I saw WPU's ad  and $1.25 per page is low.  If you haven't done it before, you'll make less than $10 an hour to start.  If you're decent and can do 10 pages in an hour, you'll make 12.50 an hour.  If you're really good and can do 20 pages in an hour, then you're still only making $25 an hour - for being really good - and that's low in my book.  IMO


then why is it not posted on financial web pages?
No info from Forbes, Reuters...
or as soon as you memorize all of those pages on that account
they change your account again.
I do not believe this: This means that you read 11 pages
in half an hour?
One page has 40 lines.

This is a ridiculous statement.
I bet you cannot even read that fast WITHOUT having to make corrections!!!

It is good to be pro-VR, but don't push it with such hilarious pretenses.
you better check this board, all the pages...
someone posted what they pay, what it was like to work there, etc. do your homework. look b4 you leap.
Monster Jobs and Career Builder usually have a few path jobs. nm

Go to archives, company pg 87. Pages work

I looked thru 2 pages and couldn't find anything.

I thought it was deleted as can happen here!


Go through the yellow pages of your local phone

book and call insurance companies that offer health insurance.  Call several.  I called 6 companies when I was looking and all the quotes were for the very same insurance, but varied as much as $200/mo.   Celtic was the best insurance.  For a family of 4, nonsmokers it was about $335/mo.   We don't have the insurance now as we have through DH job.  I can't remember if that included dental/vision/maternity coverage.   There is also a temporary insurance through Fortis, that depending on what state you live in is good for 1 year.  It is not renewable and you cannot get it if you have a pre-existing condition, or have been without coverage for a certain time period, can't remember but I think it is 15 days.   We could only get it for 6 months in our state and I paid the premium for the entire coverage and it was $403.00 total for the entire 6 months.  The deductible was $5,000.  This was basically catastrophic insurance, did not cover dental/vision/maternity.   We are all healthy and on no meds so for us it was the best option.    You can check e-insurance website and get some quotes to get an idea of coverage available, though it will not likely have everything that is available included, which is why I suggest calling local agencies.   There is a self-employed organization that offers insurance, but I found to be very expensive, about what you are paying now.  


Check into medical savings accounts.  I don't know that much about them, but I believe you have to qualify for them.   You basically put $$ into an account much like an IRA and get tax breaks.


 


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!
you really need to read through all these pages...see thread inside
there are threads on pages on this company board that are not positive. however, people tend to post negative rather than positive at this site.

people are not going to do your searching for you. do not assume because no one answered your question it is positive sign.

for example, here's a thread at page 10.

good luck.
They used to pay a low per-page rate & the subsequent partial pages
