I just spoke with the recruiter today.

Posted By: Me2 on 2007-06-14
In Reply to: Diskriter questions....please help - Changing to a new company for a long time...

They appear to be hiring for both Diskriter Employee status and Hospital Employee status. Im not sure why, but she only spoke to me about being an employee for Diskriter and benefits were cheaper than what I have been quoted from other companies, but still pushing up to $300 a month for family plan. I would like to know what the hospital employee benefits are like in comparison. Hoping to get clarification on this today.

I just spoke with a company from New Jersey today...sm
Rude was not the word for this recruiter...My goodness, makes me think that is the norm in New Jersey.  geez!!!
The recruiter I spoke to was VERY misleading about holiday pay.
I never would have known (until it was too late!) about their holiday policy unless I had read it here.... I've tossed my notes from the interview but as I recall she said something about as long as you work your next scheduled day before and after you get time+1/2 on holidays.  Could be wrong but anyway it left me with an impression apparently pretty different from the truth.  I'm so glad I said, I'll think about it!
Hey great! I spoke with the recruiter yesterday and SM

am scheduled to learn Bayscribe on 6/30. I need a new computer, do you have any recommendations? Vista or XP, desktop or laptop?


Does Bayscribe have to be downloaded onto your computer or is it something you just call into? Thanks for ANY info. I will be ueing a C-phone, havent used one of those in years!


 


I spoke with recruiter 3-4 wks ago and was told mixed acute care & clinic, no ops exclusively. Low
s
Well I talked to the recruiter today
I do start in 2 weeks like the Stacey said.  To me the payscale was a little confusing but I bet if I saw it on paper it would be more clear.  The two job thing is a little scarry.  I have not done that before but DH said he will help out with the kids and fixing meals so hopefully all will turn out.  I told him I am not going to do this forever lol. 
The person who posted the job ad today is the owner of the company, not the recruiter.
Professional MT Recruiting Services run by a woman named Terri is no longer allowed to recruit on this website.  However, it should be understood the actions of the recruiter should not be held against All American Medical Transcription.

just spoke to her - THEY DO NOT
NM
Spoke with them last Fri
and the recruiter told me that they don't really do part-time anymore.  However, she also told me she would either email me over the weekend or call me Monday to let me know she had worked out a schedule for me...and that didn't happen.  *pout*
I agree. I just spoke with NY and they said
an emphatic, "NO".
I did take their test and spoke with them sm
The dictators from the test weren't that bad and they are actually from the oncology acct I would have been on.  I think the pay was about 8 cpl and you'd be an IC with a line requirement of 1500 a day.  That's really all I can remember.  I just didn't want to be an IC.
Very low pay when I spoke with them 1-1/2 years ago. nm

I spoke with her and she was very nice. (nt)
xx
You said you spoke to the owner.
You are not credible.
Why I spoke with the owner - sm
SHE called me, SHE hired me, SHE promised me a job at a certain rate, SHE gave me all kinds of excuses why the job never materialized and then I never heard from anyone again. Enough said.
I also spoke with the owner for the same
exact reasons. She called me, she hired me, she emailed me daily, she offered me account after account, which never materialized while I did crap work just waiting for her promises to be kept. Guess what? They never were!
Is that company you spoke of . .
Is that company you spoke of hiring IC?  I have a part-time gig typing ER notes now and I'm not really happy there.  Some QA people are so nice and polite and very helpful when you have a blank/question, but others are down right mean and rude -- very unprofessional.  I have a ton of experience typing clinic -- not much ER.  It is so hard to find companies that hire for clinic dictation and actually have enough work.  The pool is almost always dry at the hospital.  I really love typing ortho and oncology.  Was hopeful to find full-time clinic work again in either of those two areas.  I am so glad to hear from MTs who have found a light at the end of the tunnel.  I worked for a few bad apples too.  I get a lot of offers, but from crap companies.  I was beginning to wonder if there were any good places left out there.
I got the call to and spoke with her...
The company's website is www.alsi-llc.com . She said she was looking for well versed rad MTs to work on VA hospital accounts..pay is 7 cpl.


ITA. I'm going one now who if he spoke up and wasn't

banging what s/l a stapler while dictating I might be able to do him.   He has a very strong accent and I was halfway through the report before I learned the accent and after I finish I'll go back and relisten. 


I spoke too soon I must need new glasses
.
I just spoke with the HR representative
on Friday.  If you want her information, contact me directly and I can give you the information on who you might talk with.
I got a card and a gift.. as did everyone I spoke to
You may want to wait a few days and take that back.
oops, correction, spoke too soon -- sm
OSi does not appear to offer health insurance, etc. on their website ... they do offer holiday pay and other nice things ...
I spoke with the gentleman from Transcription Inc this morning - sm
Their headquarters or corporate office is in Hot Springs, Arkansas.  It is a start-up company, not in business yet.  What else do you want to know? 
You have GOT to be kidding. She was one of the nicest persons I ever spoke with regarding MT.
She is very upfront and open, and was even willing to discuss pay rate pretty much from the beginning, so I wouldn't waste time if the rate they could pay wasn't enough. I thought she was great.
I thought it was rude that they never spoke to me or let me test
Believe me, I have a lot of good experience and don't feel I am just entitled to a job. I am flexible on my hours and days and can do any work types. My equipment is state of the art.

It just really fries me to see these companies complaining about a shortage of MTs and then just brushing them off when someone good comes along. Do they really want quality MTs, or do they want newbies that they can pay nothing and walk all over?

The way I figure it, it is their loss, not mine.
Hi, Any new info on Teletrak in California? Just spoke....
with the recruiter and she is super-nice, everything seems great for an IC, just wonder if anyone has worked for them and what it is like....doing a balancing act here, any info would be sooooo appreciated!
Not personally, but I spoke with a friend this morning and she sm
has a friend who went to work there recently and so far is very happy there. Hope that helps even though it is only from one source.
The rep I spoke with on Friday mentioned 60 positions... nm
x
I currently spoke with a local hospital and their pay was hourly with an incentive (nm)
x
I remember Andrea or Ondrea. She was lovely whenever I spoke to her.

So, what's it going to be today?
Who is gonna stir up the pot today?  Come on gang, lets have a good fight.
How about the ad on TV today....
make $7000 a month PART-TIME....hmmmmm.....
Since today is all about KS (sm)
Ha!  Could you tell us if we have our check direct deposited.  How do you see it?  Do you get stub in mail or intranet, etc.?  Thanks!
Way of Today
I don't post here frequently because so many of the messages are vitrolic and full of negativity and meanness. I think the mindset of today's world is reflective of just the opposite of the life advice given by your mother (and mine, too). So many, not all I know, but so many folks these days seem live their lives based on the belief that they should
-say ugly and hurtful things every chance you get.
-be rude and insensitive each and every day in each and every way.
-it is not necessary for people to like you, just make sure they know (that you believe) they are less that you.
-nothing is private, nothing is sacrosanct. Let it all hang out.
-if you're miserable, do your best to make everybody else miserable, too.
-do all manner of dirt unto others, but become aggrieved and just downright highly pissed if (when) you reap what you have sown, and feel empowered to lash out in any and every way you can.

Lyndia, you struck a chord, and I just had to respond
I know. Got my W2 today and I'm down 3G from
deficit and I always thought the idea was to increase; at least that's how it used to be.  Never thought I'd see transcription turn into a limited income industry. 
QAs being cut today
From what i was told they cut 100% of the US based eScription QA force, 75% of the US based SWAT QA force. I was making 6 cpl as a QA on escription, nice first shift M-F job. They offered me 4/8 cpl as an MT 3rd shift in escription or 5 cpl to be QA for a new account on the Dictaphone side, and told me that being they offered me a new position I would not qualify for unemployment.
is always like that, not only today..nm
nm
Wish I did. Know nothing. It is indeed bad today.
nm :(
wonder why the ad today then sm
very low paying (April 2009 was 6.5 to 7 cents.  Good grief.   
Here's another one from today

got a job today... sm
Well I had an interview today and received a job offer about two hours later. Whoo Hoo! Smaller company but they supply all equipment etc. Tech support, one weekend day a month etc. You never know the whole details until you get started, but at least its something. Money isn't bad either with incentive scale to boot!
Had interview today . . .

Pay is per hour. They have .8 and .7 positions. Both are elligible for full benefits. $196 per month insurance for family, dental family is $32 a month. Hours stink. 4 days a week 5pm to 10pm and 8 hours either Saturday or Sunday. 0.55 shift differential. Don't know what hourly wage would be...yet. Strickly radiology reports. Would have training at the head MT's home, about 45 minutes away from me. Don't know how long that would be. I was showed basic platform and it doesn't look to bad. WordPerfect 5.3. Their computer and equipment. I guess they are swamped. They have 19 hours of dictated minutes right now on their system with 8 MTs currently. They like to see it more around 4 hours.


Opinions?


RE: Had interview today
If you are lucky enough to get hired, I personally would not turn down a chance to work that type of environment.
Today is my first day! Whew!
Shorthand only works with Radnet, so I'm told, and now I'm trying to figure out how to import my old expander into Shorthand. So far going good though. I'm excited. Good luck to you and welcome aboard!
SORRY CANT TYPE TODAY NM

PMSing Today?

Applied with them today...

I think:  Individual $26-something per pay period, employee+spouse was $180-something, employee and children was somewhere close to $200, and I think the whole family was $360-something (really high for family), but these are guesstimations so don't hold me to it, but this is what I remember.


Have you taken your medication today?
Settle down.
Got the call from MQ today

Came from "Mike" at corporate MQ number on caller ID.


Just wanted to verify that I got the letter and that I would be getting the new benefit package in October. I politely asked if he could give me any advance FYI on any of it and he said, nope, they were just calling & verifying we received the letter...and that October was not that far away  my last name starts with G & I'm in the midwest, so maybe their going in alpha or by office, who knows.


I did ask him a question about the new links on the QNet, about what to find on there and he actually had to pull the page up and his computer was running so slow he said, that I just told him never mind.


So...the suspense goes on ladies and gents.


Got a job offer today . . .
considering it. I wish I knew more.
