Please read through the posts below (sm)
and be forewarned that there are so-called "companies" and "MTSOs" out there who say they hire newbies but then ask for money upfront in order to work for them. Bottom line: do not pay to work, except for purchasing your own software and equipment. Reputable companies and MTSOs will not ask you for money and will not need you to buy a footpedal from them. Take care and good luck!

This topic comes up frequently, actually. Your school SHOULD be offering you placement assistance - ask who hires their grads. Try local hospital/doc offices, and keep applying. I wouldn't buy equipment because you never know what you'll need for a job. Purchasing some references would be a good idea, though.
Search thru the posts here. Depending on the branch, their newbie pay is only 3-4 cpl. nm

It's good to read positive posts...
I can't really say I'm discouraged because I haven't put my self out there yet. Once I start applying then I can determine whether it was worth the money and time or not. I am going to apply to every company I can find and I'm going to send resumes and letters to all the Drs in my area and see if anyone will "bite" and help me get my foot in the door! Thanks LISA
If you read through the past posts here you'll
see that M-Tec and Andrews were the best. They help with placement and most grads have a job by the time they finish up. Career Step is the next choice.
Also, does no one bother to read previous posts here? Scroll down & someone posted a list found by s

Please search the New MT board. There
:)
don't believe all that you read on this board.
I have worked for Medquist for a few years, and I think they are a great company to work for. There have been a few bumps in the road, but they hear the MT's and are trying to correct them. The pay is good, and the platform is excellent.
Don't do it! Do a search on the New MT board for recommended programs. nm

Spend some time reading through posts on this board
and you'll find your info about the preferred schools and the ones to avoid. I don't know of any MT company that is setup to work with MAC.

Look on the company board for the post.
Titled Ascend...beware.
There is a thread about them on the company board.
You should probably check it out.
If you ask on the company board you're more likely
to get your question answered. This company has been asked about many times in the past and you can do an archive search too.
Go down a few inches on the Company board. Being

Check the company board -sm
I've seen talk on there of several companies that hire new grads.
I actually got hired at MQ right out of school - but it was a much different company then. I worked there for 3-1/2 years and bailed when the first signs of sinking occured. 
I honestly only have experience with them and the company I'm currently at - and I don't think my current one hires new grads. Check out the company board though and I'm sure you'll find a company that will make you much happier than MQ could.
Check the company board. These same
questions have been asked multiple times the past couple of weeks. I didn't see anything good about them.
Ask on the company board. You're likely to get
more response there.
You should post this on the company board.

Look on the company board. I've never
heard of them, but there are some posts about them on the company board.

Check the company board for info on them.

Chekc the archives on the company board. Not
much posted about them recently, but not much good posted about them. I certainly wouldn't recommend them.
Big discussion on the Company Board. They outsource offshore

If you'll check the company board you'll find
they have been talked about several times recently. They are an Indian company and no one has had anything good to say about them.
Didn't she sell it, or just your company to an offshore company. The woman
has a screw loose.
No, the woman who owns this company can't transcribe herself, much less run a company.

Any company that charges anything to work is not a reputable company. However,
if a company offers a job and requires that you have a certain pedal and offers to provide it and then take it out of say your first paycheck or couple of paychecks, then that is acceptable.
My belief is that companies that charge you for software or anything else is trying to make money off of you.
While $11.95 isn't much, figure that amount times 10 or 20 or 100 and what do you come up with? Smells like a scam to me.
company was sold so they have no company to hire you after graduation!
They are not a reputable school and I went there so I should know. Even when they did have Trans. Relief Services they never answered my email about employment upon graduation.
You can do a search on...
the Better Business Bureau or Google them. That's what I have done in the past.
Good luck with your job search!!!
What do I search for?
I've searched for people looking for independent contractors, but they are generally companies. I'm wondering if there are searches that others have done for a doctor looking for an independent contractor and not just companies and I'm wondering if anyone else has had success in doing so, anywhere on the internet and not just here?
Do a Search!
This subject is broached EVERY DAY (along with "I can't find a job....help!"). Do a search, you'll find plenty of information. Research is one of the top things MTs have to excel in to be any good.
Search
If you type the company name into the Google search box on the main page and click the Search MtStars, you will get a bunch of posts that have the name of that company in them. You can also search the company boards.
search
There is search box right above all the posts. If you type in your school name, it should archive all the posts about that school. :)
How goes the search?
It's tough, but you'll find something. I got a spot with Medquist a year ago. I also worked for Sten-Tel for a while as an IC. Not too bad, mostly VR there, and they treated me well, but I didn't want to be an IC. Needed insurance.
Maybe we can help with the search
I have looked at many MT forums on the web and have seen the same things over and over about the frustrations of the job search for New Graduates. In response to these messages and posts, I have put together a comprehensive Essential Tips Guidebook which features useful information to assist with the job search. At Focus Infomatics we are starting to hand these guidebooks out to anyone struggling to find a position that applies to one of our jobs. This guidebook contains helpful topics such as: a background of what to expect in the search, lists of companies and websites to find jobs, MT forums and groups to network, putting together a resume, interview techniques, earning and wage estimates and much much more. I am confident this guidebook will help and anyone who would like a copy, can email or call me and we will email it right out. There is no costs or obligations of any kind for this guidebook, only to let us know if it did in fact help you.
We hope this will assist anyone searching for a new position!
thanks
