Does MedWare post your score in their email to you? How high a score do you need to get hired?Thx.nm
s
email again just stating you submitted
your resume about 10 days ago and have not heard anything as of yet for testing. They will get back to you very shortly then.
I received an email from JG stating spaces would
be paid now too. Got it at 9:19 a.m. with a follow up email 4 minutes later stating for clarification, this is permanent.
I received an email from TransTech stating that they
are about to hire for many positions but just last week I read lots of posts on here about people running out of work.  At one time I had been really interested in working for them but this is really confusing and makes me very wary. 
I received an email today stating it was all approved. :-) nm

D just out an email stating that there MT's already beta testing the new platform

You obviously need to read your emails more closely.  She just sent out an email asking who did not have it on their computers yet.  YES, there are *special* people at TT already using the new software -- beta testing.  Read email from D dated 6/10/09. 


Get your facts straight before you tell me I'm lying. . . OK??


I would write them an email if it has been a couple of days.
Never hurt to try.
Not on ER here, another acct. Got an email by mistake a few days ago with an Indian person in the
s
TransTech upper sent out email for blackout on vacation for several days, so only a grain or 2 jobs

available due to some MT's on vacation *probably looking for job*.  We are TAT up-to-the-minute, so NOTHING to get excited about at TT. 


Same ole grab-it-while-it-is-there workload.  LOW, LOW, LOW.


That is what I just said. !0 days PTO, period. That includes vacation, sick days and personal days
They should have paid holidays so that you are paid if you take off. Also should inculde extra hours for sick days and personal days.

That annual raise of .002 is kind of a joke especially when at the same time they upped the minimum line requirement from 10,000 lines to 12,000 lines.

OSi just does not have the qualified people in management positions that I wish to work for.

I am glad that you are happy at OSi and all is working out for you. Their dishonesty and the way they treat people just does not work for me.

Of course they can get by cheaply by hiring unqualified people so that is very good for the owners.
Hm, well if that was my score, it was better than a
I have no clue. Maybe someone will come along that knows if that was, in fact, the score or not.
QA score
Honestly, I've never seen a QA score since I've been there. They probably have one somewhere and if it gets too low they probably alert you or something, but I've never seen one. I'll get occasional random QA'd reports to review or occasional emails from QA about remember to do this. I can also go into the system and review ones that I knew I had a hard time with that have already been through QA and review them myself. So, I guess they're strict in a this-report-needs-to-be-perfect way but not in a you're-going-to-get-your-pay-cut-if-you-don't-get-your-commas-in-the-right-place way.
I do know and I score MTs when I QA them sm
I asked for an updated weighted scale the other day and got one. I know where my full time job is my QA runs about 99.7% or a little better. I have been off my game of late and I think I have dropped to 99.4%.

Now...where I QA I go ballistic with errors. I have an MT who will not WILL NOT look up anything. She had Asthmanex for Asmanex and transcribed NovaLog when the doc said Novolin. The insulin problem could be life threatening!!! She has doctor names misspelled all the time when we have an easy datatbase to use. It is not perfect, it is convenient and not hard to use. She has semicolons when commas and periods are better. I have not counted her punctuation otherwise, don't care where she sticks a comma. She can't use a compound modifier properly and she has a habit of hyphenating every instance of a number (q.8.hours. or 3-days time instead of 3 days' time, etc.) I can't score her above 92% at best and she is often at 88%, not acceptable.

I completely agree, punctuation can't get you down to the 80s. I am tough and the MT above might get worse out of others who are sticklers in ways I am not, but still.

Ask for specifics and examples. QA gals are not perfect. We do the best we can.
I'm sure not going to get into a credit score war w/you, BUT....
I can guarantee you that mine is way higher than yours - and it didn't get that way by allowing whomever wanted to look at my credit report to send me a bunch of BS through the mail or call me! I have never heard of the person to whom you referred in your last posting, but I guess there is only one expert or advisor in the world, correct? I will continue to use the freeze on my account and know that I'm protected while you on the other hand..................
You don' know what you are talking about. My QA score was 99.9. nm
 
I was QA'd on training every day I'd see my score.
Did you forget about the training review reports? You review your reports daily on QA during initial time period.
Why should I ask about my score if I passed....sm
Usually one asks why one did not pass.
You didn't score an 80 something just
xx
Yes, and passed with a high score -
but that was a while ago (last summer). I don't know if the test has changed at all. Good luck.
Well I didn't get my score yet but it was ridiculous.
I don't understand it, I've been doing this 20 years and don't necessarily know anatomy like the back of my hand. We are not diagnosticians for pete's sake, we're MTs! If we knew all of that, we wouldn't be typing for peanuts we'd be MDs! LOL. Just a little ridiculous I thought.
It should have instantly sent you a pretty low score.
,
what is the minimum QA score required

Thanks!


Sounds like somebody didn't score too well on their
QA audit!
Execuscribe On-Line Test Score
Hi! I just tested with Execuscribe yesterday and recieved a score of 88%. Does anyone know if this is a passing score?  Thanks!!
That score is with current company. I also have e-mails from
my STM at Webmedx telling me how pleased they were with my work.   Someone is always wanting to say that you just couldn't cut it when you leave a company, but that wasn't my situation.  Actually the lack of work was a blessing.  I now work for a company whose QA is very strict, even more so than Webmedx, where my score last month was 99.9%, there is lots of work 24/7, and the pay is better.  I was also making my line count after 3 days.  So the story had a happy ending.   When one person leaves that might be chalked up to a quality issue, but when several leave at the same time then that likely isn't the case.  The numbers showed what the workload was like. 
On that score, you are 100% correct, just slow with the flow.
nm
I didn't receive a score but the test was hard.

I'm almost afraid to ask what I got. 


It would be nice if they would provide an applicant with their test score.

?


Your line count varies based on QA score.
nm
Maybe the trick was to NOT show a score, like the poster below? Who the frig knows?!! I thought
.
You bill 30 days behind, and they snail mail it so it's late - about 40 days from invoice
No way jose - they even messed up their direct deposit payments
I think the OP was stating that she got some

However, I remember this job post and I think the pay was 7 cpl.  You get what you pay for is all I can say.   


As far as your reasons for job hopping, it makes me no nevermind, I was simply pointing out the fact that you've had four jobs in 15 years.  In my opinion, that is a lot of jobs to have in that span of time.  I had the same employer for 15+ years and have serviced the same accounts for 10+.  Longevity equals production in this business. 


I think that many promises are made to these MTs by these MTSOs, and then the promises are broken.  I think that causes a sour taste.  Let's face it.  Business is business.  


Maybe she/he works 14 hour days/7 days a week? nm

I am just stating my opinion like everyone else...sm
on the board. I must have struck a nerve with you for you to be so insulted. What's with "get over yourself" - just because I'm happy with my company and you probably aren't - means what? That I think I'm better than everyone? Don't think so. You should try being more positive, you might be more pleasant.
By the way, stating that you feel you let them down
is an admission that sounds like guilt. Don't get your denial of that issue either!
If DOL is all your HR dept will take, then anyone stating here they could
Perhaps you should just give it up if you are not willing to call and/or see an attorney for yourself. lol

Stating the name of a job position
I had though that all job ads posted had to state the name of the company; however, there is one posted by an MTRecruiter who seems to be looking for different companies.  Shouldn't that person name the companies who he/she is recruiting for?  Thanks.
Why did you say that? Now there will be 60 messages stating
xx
I was getting 9 cpl with them and they let me go stating I could not do op notes sm
Op notes are all I do for MQ and my other job.  They just didn't want to pay me 9 cpl and they dropped me to 7 cpl on er reports.  It is an awful company to work for.  I would not go there in any way, shape or form.
and I am stating my opinion also. sm
If the companies don't want to set up auto e-mail they don't want to. you aren't going to change them. Grow up. Not being nasty just to the point.
This might be stating the obvious but...
Make sure you make the corrections and save the revised document!

I updated my resume and saved it, but when I went to send it out realized I had not updated my email address. I updated it on the resume I was sending out at that particular moment, but forgot to change it and save it in Word. After I had to correct it 3-4 times as I went to send it, I FINALLY remembered to go into the actual document, make the change and save it.

Sometimes I really wonder how I function in day to day life, I'm such a scatterbrain, lol!!!
I am only stating that she posted on another board. I don't know her
one way or the other, you are right. I am not the basher. I just thought that post would clarify what someone else said. That's all. I am not bashing this woman. I am just giving information that I read while posting a question about Transtech on another board
He emailed me afterward, stating that he had
that he called to tell me about the additional ways. I never responded. The scary thing is that I had posted my resume to so many places here, so I had no clue who it was.
Several posts in the archives stating this. nt
 
I'm not being rude. The OP is stating she is lacking
work, and you give her a lecture related to your problems. Again, apples and oranges. That means opposite! So you slacked off and caused the company problems, etc. Unless you know the OP personally and are accusing her of same, your post is irrelevant. Are you helping her get work? Are you answering her question why there is no work for her? No, you turned her post into your own post! Help the lady out and answer her questions - she didn't ask for your work history, etc. Nothing said negative about the company, so you're rather protective. Unless, as often happens here, a whole thread was deleted by now and I missed it! Peace to you! Just trying to point out that your post is not helpful or on topic of the original questions!
Just stating the facts, maam.
Wow! What remarkable perceptive powers you must possess to be able to glean personal information from a 2-line post! If you ever get tired of QA, do consider the Psychic Friends' Network. Seriously though, what you refer to as ''answers'' and ''corrections'' are more often personal preferences (varying from QA to QA) and petty nit-picking about poorly communicated, ever-changing rules. You might want to examine, though, why you are emotional and upset enough to post rambling diatribes over MTs comparing their work experiences and pet peeves on an MT forum. Thanks for the heartfelt holiday wishes though (so good to know that you love me!) and for your approval to ''say what you have to if you must''. LOL!
Not trying to start anything just stating facts

But Amphion has just informed me that they are letting me go because I am not making their line count and its the end of probation.  I don't know if it is all the extra stuff I had to do in the document information screen before being able to type or I'm just stupid, but I have always made like counts before and have never ever been let go from an MT job before or any job for that matter.  I am not going to badmouth them but it is a very bad feeling when I know I did my best.  I'm not a newbie either, I have 9 years under my belt.



Not trying to start anything just stating facts
Don't feel bad, I just started there and I know I am not going to be able to meet their line counts with all the looking up things and a different doctor every report. I also have never had trouble meeting line counts before, but this is a joke. Just move on and chalk it up to experience.
not to but in but MTing put herself out there stating she was perfect...
and had 100% quality. No one is going to just take your word for it with a comment like that. I am not even in QA and thought the exact same thing when I read the post - I could not help but notice the errors.
Not really complaining, just stating a fact
had not gotten even an email and never did.
