Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

Sorry, I never worked for them. I did apply once, and they sent me some info. sm

I just remember that they pay weekly -- pay period ends one week and you are paid the next.   They use an internet-based platform, and offered 8-1/2 cpl, 65 ccl, including spaces, headers, and footers.  I didn't take the job because the pay was just too low for me to consider, but I did get a good impression from the company, and I do not recall ever reading anything negative about them on the boards.


Hope this helps.

Thanks for info. Makes a difference whether I apply or not.
nm
thanks....i was hoping for info from someone who has worked for them...
Of course there will be nothing but positive information listed by the company themself.

Thanks for the info though.
Has anyone worked for Shapin with info? Thanks. nm

I worked for them several years ago, so cannot provide recent info, but sm

the work was plentiful and easy (clinic work).  The pay was not so high, and was kinda weird, paid by character.  It is an IC position, and and so you are responsible for all taxes and such.   Also, if I remember correctly, you do not get your first check for 4 weeks, then it is every 2 weeks.  I was only working part-time so it really was not that big of an issue with me.  And I think direct deposit was not available, only paid by check, but it was on time. 


As I recall, Carol was very knowledgeable and fair.  With the pay scale going down every day, there are certainly worse places to work.


Hope this helps.  Good luck. 



 


Anyone with info on The Word Pros or anyone who has worked on an as-needed basis? NM
nm
MedWrite Transcription... anyone work/worked for this company can give me any info?

I worked for a temp agency for 3 years..LOVED it. Just worked. No counts, no hassels, GREAT pay..
No benefits at the time.  I even learned pathology while temping (8 months on that assigment).  I loved the variety, the ability to say I'm not available such and such time.  I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I didn't need benefits.
A company is ONLY supposed to verify that someone worked there, what dates they worked, whether PT o
and last date worked. It opens everyone up to a lawsuit if more is given, so most companies are told by their attorneys and business advisors to verify only.

No one has a right to a reference, only verification of employment.
APPLY ...
1) Explain what you need in schedule; I'm sure you'll get it.

2) IF it is brought up, explain. I'm sure you'll be fine with that!


why don't YOU apply with OSI?
nm
Please don't apply because ...sm
you can't even spell why ruin a good thing for the rest of us?   As far as ads being posted well duh - the company is growing with large accounts being added continuously.  Nothing wrong with new business!!! 
I would apply for another job
One that gets good comments AND takes out taxes :-)

BTW, that's what I did and start the first of the year, couldn't be happier!
Don't apply there then, what can I tell you.
xx
Again if that is so, why would you need to apply at DSG?
You come on here knocking them down for not responding to your holey (misspelled on purpose) self.
Why do I need to apply? No, I don't need
for any amount of money.
Please - where did you apply?
Please, where did you apply?  Yes, I do have a letter of recommendation from her.  I've got 3 kids to support on my own, and I feel so discouraged. 
How do I apply?
Do they have a website? Thanks!
MW MTS, apply to
TransTech..they are growing and wonderful to work for, and do not outsource to India. 
Does that apply to ICs too?
nm
Thanks! I will apply and see what happens. NM

Did you apply for the
prn ad?
Apply at TT
with TT112
I always look, never apply.

But there are still a lot of hits and I imagine a lot of serious lookers from the posts here.


So how do you apply at MDI?
I visited their website but saw no place to apply. How do I go about doing this?
Did anyone apply for the job (sm)

Did anyone apply for the job that was on the job seeker's board with CLK transcription, the nonmedical transcriptionist?  If so, just wondering if anyone has heard back from them.  I sent my resume in, but have not heard anything yet. 


thanks in advance!


Where did you apply? sm
Do you just send cover letter/resume through contact information. There is no actual place to apply at on the web site. Thanks!
How do you apply?
How do you apply to MDI-MD? I didn't see a link on their site.
All you can do is apply and see what happens!!!
nm
Why not apply for both and see what happens?
 
How to apply at MDI-MD
Can anyone tell me how I go about submitting an application/resume with MDI-MD? They don't seem to have a link on their website, unless I have the wrong one! Thanks very much.
Would anyone apply here? sm

Just out of curiousity, how many of you on this board right now would apply for this job? The pay is less than minimum wage, they supply no equipment and looks like you may as well make yourself available 7 days a week. I am serious here, is anyone that is looking going to apply here?

I think I will apply
I have not had steady work since Thanksgiving and it sounds like they have work, think I will apply.  I hope they have employee positions.  Kim.
Ever apply for a job and get a
ticket number back?  I guess they will call when they get to my ticket number.  That doesn't sound like a shortage of MTs to me.
All you can do is ask when you apply.

That could apply to just about anyone,
I feel the same way. If you want me to spend hours proof-reading and looking up the addresses of obscure doctors in the Middle-of-Nowhere, USA, then give that 3 cpl you're paying the so-called 'Editors' (and I use the term extremely loosely!), and give it to ME. Then I'll do all that demographic detail crap.
No, I was going to apply and I know last sm
week people were saying it might be bad?  Just wondering before I test, that's all.  I can't read it because I don't work there.
what you are saying does not apply in these
terrible times. How can you say, 'if you don't like it in 1 company, quit and look for a better company. They are all equal, more or less and jobs are scarce.
It is not proven yet that using the shortcuts brings the speed up. Not for everybody, some people are just 'mouse people' and prefer to continue to work with the mouse. Using the shortcuts is optional and pitting a lot of stress on only 3-4 fingers hitting constantly the Ctrl- and Alt- button in combination with others.
Also, the poster who said that editing isn't even editing anymore, meant, and she is right, that editing has often gone so bad that it is often better to delete the whole document and type it up anew. And this for the VR rate that is 50% of the straight rate.
I don't think I can apply though
cuz I don't have a the foot PEDDLE they require in the ad;-)  Good gravy, they should have QA for their ads.  Guess recruiters don't have to understand the industry at all anymore.  But bet they get paid more than MTs at this CPL. 
There is a box that says Apply Now -
That's where I always click, and it brings up another page where you copy and paste your resume. It seems to work for me. I haven't gotten a good job yet, but at least I think I'm applying right! :)
How To Apply With MDI

Could someone tell me how to apply with MDI.  I went to their web site and wrote them under their Contact Us link, but I have had no reply.  Other than sending them my resume through the Contact Us link, there's no way currently to apply from their site.  It may be that they are not accepting new applicants at this time.


Any help appreciated.  Thanks.


Sure, an IC can APPLY
imagine it being granted, unless we ourselves contributed to the state fund as our own employer.  However, the application would at least help statistically show the true unemployment rate, and annoy our former company with having to respond. 
Apply at both,

see which one is more appealing to you when you pass their tests, and then make your choice.


In this economy and with all the low paying jobs, just getting a job will be good!


It worked! Latest suggestion from DJ's email worked. nm

If I worked a longer day, I just put my regular shift, 3p-11p, or whatever. If I worked sm
an extra day, then I was told to fudge the hours around on the other days so it all came out to 40.  I didn't really mind -- have learned not to expect overtime in this profession -- and I was happy to be able to work whenever I needed to get the lines I needed.  However, them telling me directly to fudge on my time sheet would seem to be a violation of the wage and hour laws.  I suppose it doesn't matter now if they do not even have enough work to make the minimum line count necessary.  Several of the companies I thought were golden seem to have gotten a bit tarnished lately … sad. 
Hmm. Maybe I will apply with Medquist.
with Transolutions. For some reason, I just cannot seem to get a decent line count.
What would be the next best company to apply to then?
Thanks.
apply on-line
medquist

You would be an idiot to apply to MQ
after reading all these posts. That 2300 a day would equal maybe a 1200 in DQS.
WTG - DO NOT APPLY, HORRIBLE
They lie, steal, cheat, and do anything and everything but pay you!!!! RUN, RUN, RUN.
Why? After all this, I would never apply with them or want to work with them. I have
never seen anything good.
I am very disappointed. I was going to apply there
I was going to apply there, but I will only work for companies that only use United States employees.

Thank you for the information.
