who have lots of questions and this will calm down soon.

Kind of happens anytime a company starts a new account or hires on a lot for whatever reason.

Oracle Transcription hires ICs. Lots of work right now, too.
I've been working for them for five years.
Lots of promises, no follow through. Lots and lots of internal sm
problems. She is recruiting heavy right now as she has a CHANCE at getting a big account back. Even if they get it back, they'll blow it again from poor management.
That's a cross to bear with most co's...sm

This demographic BS, looking up Dr's names, addresses, CCs aud nauseum, etc, etc, is just another sample of MT exploitation we have to deal with these MTSOs, and they practically all do it....ironically, it's the demos/unpaid duties that QA gives you the most flack about.  (The client wants it just so ....if he wants it just so...means client is paying for this service, while we get to do it GRATIS.  They really think we're that dumb ,not to know the difference between paid work and voluntary work, our our gift to their stockholders. 


 


You also need to bear in mind that
even though the new job says they have more than enough work to keep you busy, that might not be the case.  It has been my experience that rarely is it true these days that the work is bountiful and abundant ANYWHERE.  That's why so many of us juggle 2, 3, and 4 part-time gigs. You really should try to hang onto both till you know for certain.   
old hires get double pay; new hires now get 4 cents more;

u r right, they are a bear to get: LINE THIEVES
The overtime is offered to make up for the lines they steal on some accounts trying to entice people to stay I guess. Forget it.
"if you can't bear that, find another job".

Thanks for the advice about reading further down, but I couldn't bear
to read any further than I unfortunately did.  Yes, GB and Cindy MT have a right to their opinion but this thread went beyond that to down right vindictive, mean and angry.  All I meant is we all don't need to read this kind of stuff right now with the way things are.  One size doesn't fit all, so if it doesn't fit, move on.  The kind of anger displayed in this thread can only be destructive and not a benefit to anyone.  Obviously, there are some happy at TT or they would be out of business, as with MQ and other MTSOs.  This post went way beyond opinions, at least constructively!
somebody must be taking it or it wouldn't be offered - whatever the market will bear, ya know--

BARE BONES. Not bear need a spell check!

I totally agree, your story is mine and lots, and lots of others, please
believe me when I say Keystrokes has been honest like we used to have in this profession. If I can help one Transcriptionist avoid what we have, this will all be worth it. I worked parttime for Keystrokes at the time I was fulltime with ____ and quit, 2 years later I begged them to take me back after once again my paycheck was cut in half, and they did with open arms. I don't mean to run down anyone but a lot of these transcription companies are getting obscenely rich while paying below minimum wage to transcriptionists, playing with dictation and after working for a couple of them you know who is honest and who is not. Sorry I came down so hard but the reality is there are single mothers out there that I bet cry themselves to sleep not able to give their children a decent life because it is easier to steal from us. When companies have millions of dollar to pay for other transcription companies, open transcription schools in other countries, ect., ect., you know there is a lot of money in it. That is all I am saying.
I don't think we work at the same place, but I have been working lots and lots of hours.
Very thankful to have a decent job.

New hires
They probably are hiring extra expecting that all might not stay, or that some won't work out. 
I'm one of those new hires, and...
I hope that all the TT questions on this board are not an indication of how difficult it is to communicate with supes at TT.  What I usually do if I have non-critical questions, especially for a new employer or in any situation where I know more questions will come up over time, is I just write them down and when I have 3 or 4 I'll send off an email.  Keeps me from bombarding someone with emails when every hour another little oh what about.... pops into my mind.
Wonder why no hires in NY, CA and MO? (sm)
Live in Missouri and have never seen anything that restricted us before.
Any new hires for MDI ...sm
Any new hires completed training?  Is there enough work on your primary to keep you busy?  What has your experience been after completing your 5 reports or 20 minutes of dictation?  Please share new hires or current employees?  Thanks.
yes, new hires
do work 1 wkend day every week.

Older/previous hires only had/have to do 2 wk-end days a month.

they have a number of accounts, and i am sure they could accommodate your preference if you are fortunate enough to be hired. Very good place to work, in my opinion!!
The new hires were either CM hires (for those sm
weird schedules like Wed-Sun 2nd shift) or for the new Enterprise account that had to hire the already-existing in house MTs; those hospitals MTs came along with the package and are now Webmedx MTs. Not new hires in the sense you were meaning.
Amphion hires PT. sm

You set your own schedule; weekends/nights only if you want it in your schedule.  Always have work.  Good pay, good accounts, good people. 


 


 


Who hires newbies?

work at home only.


What Co Hires CherryPickers?

:(


How long do new hires usually sm
stay on 100% QA with TransHealth?  TIA!
I am looking for a company that hires ICs.
///////
JLG hires IC's and has a current ad
Good place!
I would have to say the MTs my company hires--sm

are for the most part unable to do acute care.  Most of them seem to be from really small hospitals/doctor offices and have never been exposed to a wide variety of drugs, surgical procedures, therapies, you name it.  Most of them are also not interested in learning anything, they just want to type and get paid and have me do their hard work for them.


 


Who still hires SE status?
/
Who hires trainees?
I know this has probably been asked before, but does anyone know of companies that hire trainees?  I have a friend with some medical experience who wants to train on the job.
Any company that hires PT for 500 lph....sm
I am looking for extra work but can only commit to no more than 500 lines a day, sometimes less and allow me work any time as long as I do the lines.  I some times have slow mornings and sometimes I have slow afternoons, depending on what doctor's are on and would like to be able to fill my time in between with some extra work.
Hires newbies
Allegiant and Sound Medical Transcription.  Both are very nice owners/companies to work for/with.  Good luck!
Let them train all their new hires on
My problem is that I cannot see why should I be moved to another account when my account is going to the new MT's they keep training?  Problem lies in overhiring and not enough accounts!
training new hires??
so you aren't paid hourly?
Medware hires SE. nm
s
With all the new hires will TransTech
TIA
MDI-MD - Recent Hires

Just curious - if you had a phone interview, was the recruiter on time to call you? I had one scheduled but haven't received any contact.


Anyone else with this experience?


This is what they are currently requiring for new hires...SM
work shift either Sun-Thu or Tue-Sat, 700 lines each of those 5 days. Have to work a weekend day every week, not just twice a month like older requirements for existing employees.
Now I see TT only hires the best spellers.
f
TransTech hires PT & needs MTs now
NM
New Futurenet hires? How do you like it so far? nm
 
If you are indeed a newbie, I believe MDI-MD only hires..sm

MTs with at least 5 years acute care experience.  I may be wrong but I have worked there about 6 years now and that is my understanding.  Good luck to you though wherever you land! 


Does DSG every hire new hires as QA?
fast at it. I also used to help other QA staff with pointers and tips that really made it user friendly.  I was an original QA guinea pig who got the original versions of QASAR to test and gave suggestions to help it along.  I loved QASAR as a feedback tool in particular. It was so nice to be able to give spot-on feedback and helpful references without having to write emails, etc.  I think I miss QAing!  Thanks for any DSG info you could pass on.  I know lots of companies don't hire QA from outside, but only promote from within. But maybe DSG might need QA who are experienced in QASAR?
