I think you know what I meant. That is not the problem as I responded directly to her email.

Posted By: From a Recruiter on 2006-03-06
In Reply to: Try sbcglobal.net - that might be the problem! nm - not the MT

I am sure that any other company that tried to respond to her also had the same problem. I know it is sbcglobal.net but hey, I am not on here to get QA'd.  I in a very quick moment put up a message to an MT who wanted a job and did it very quickly in the middle of my busy schedule trying to be courteous and helpful.


Have a nice evening or was that eneving.  :)

Why not send this to her email directly?
I think you should take this to her via email. Its easy enough to create an alternate ID so you would not be identified if you are trying to be anonymous.
I took out the legal references. If anyone has questions about it, email me directly.

Posted when I meant to email
I can't believe I did it again, replied on the board when I meant to email privately.
SD apparently screwed up by hitting "reply all" to an email that was meant
Indians they were using as outsourcers. She accidentally let the cat out of the bag when OSi was denying all along that they used Indian MT's.  I'm sure her "stepping down" was more of a "quit or you're fired" thing, but that's just my take on it.  She was a b*tch, that's for sure, and an incompetant unqualified one at that. QA manager - what a joke.
Thanks to all who responded! SM

I will definitely ride it out, knowing about the time of year, and use it to build speed with the new work, etc.  Glad I posted; I'm a better frame of mind now about the lack of work. 


Thank you to everyone who responded!
I appreciate all of your responses to my dilemna.  I will give it more time and hold onto my old job for now also.  Thank you to everyone and Happy Holidays!
Thanks to all who responded....
Think I'll pass and not waste my time with the interview.
Thanks, I responded. :)

Thanks so much to everyone that responded, I did

Go and apply with this company and received a *ticket.*  I received a message that stated that they would be in touch with me when and if they started hiring and if I met their criteria, fingers crossed.  Are you working for them now? 


Thanks to all the wonderful MTs who have responded to the ads
as well as to all those who have been with us awhile. Sue and I, along with Wendy and Vikki, Nancie, Diane, Pat, and the rest of the staff are so grateful to everyone who helps make this a great place to work and a success. We are very happy that so many new MTs will be joining us.
I know I applied with them, and they never responded.

I responded privately, thank you.

I sent my resume and he responded
back with an email asking if I would be interested in testing. I emailed back and said I didn't mind and asked for their website. He emailed back with their website and said HR would be contacting me soon.

Guess I'll have to wait and see how long that takes! Good luck to you though.
Look further down this post. She responded
yesterday - Bright Universe.
Got your emails and have responded
Thanks so much! The information is truly appreciated. I sent you a reply via email, as well, and I hope you will respond. Thanks again!
Blackswan, sorry nobody has responded.
I have no idea about Orion, though I know there were recent posts here about them. Oracle has always had a negative response. I know I had signed on with them years ago and was so excited and thrilled. Then everything went wrong tech and set up wise. I remember I had to buy PC anywhere, something like that, and then never got my training, dates set and broken by them, etc. That seems to be the norm. Landmark - very low work volumes, and don't pay for spaces. MTs come and go regularly, as accounts seem to come and go regularly. I have always heard fine for PT, but not for full time.
I have not responded yet. It was suggested that
we should let them know when we were ready to train. I figure when It gets to the point when I am not getting my required lines for the pay period, I will left them know I need the training.
I responded for more VR and am getting less work sm
period on my primary account. I spend most times on my secondary and am just making the 11,000 line count per payperiod. I had been hoping to pick up enough extra to make the incentives but that is out of the question. My paycheck is really hurting. I can't work like this much longer.
I'm the person you responded to sm
the milk is for my daughter.  Should I have just told her there is no milk and have her use water in her cereal?  You are absolutely heartless to ridicule a situation like mine or any other person's.
I meant nothing wrong. I meant a friend who can vouch for

Directly
No use taking things up with them directly, nothing ever changes, it is their way or the highway. Furthermore, they will never return your phone calls.

As far as not wanting you to post on message boards, hmmmm wonder why? Do you think maybe they know they do not have a good reputation and that might get out? Be careful, Big Brother is watching, NOT. This is America Folks chat on!!!!!!
To the person who responded RE: Key Transcription in ND
I looked in the archives and on MT Spot and didn't find anything.  Did you work for them previously?  If so, would it be okay if I emailed you?  If not, could you possibly provide a link to any past threads about this company?  I'd greatly appreciate it.  I've been offered a position with Key, but I'm having second thoughts, especially since I saw your post.  Thanks.
Sorry, I had not had coffee when I responded earlier ... sm
best of luck to you too. I'm sorry that you are having to go through all this. I think most of us just want to work hard and do a good job and be treated fairly by our employers. Seems so simple, but in my experience it has been hard to find. I'm moving on and hopefully will have found a better employer.
To Mary who responded by e-mail (sm)
Thank you.  I tried to send a brief message back to you at your e-mail address twice but it came back.  Thanks for the info. 
okay, your emails finally came and I responded
x
They responded to my resume within 24-hours and
within 3 days of submitting resume I had an offer.   I submitted resume through their website, was unsure if they were even hiring. 
Directly to a hospital.

Look at the post directly below yours or look
 at the ads on the job boards. 
You might try contacting QA directly ...

I agree, this makes no sense and my guess is all the HIPPA folderol is just a smokescreen this person is throwing up (for whatever I do not wanna deal with this or stick my neck out for ANY reason) ...


alternatively -- I would recommend saving each and every report you type from this person AND THEN  flagging the report for QA  so you can fill in your own blanks if no one wants to help you.  I type several doctors who  -- without samples -- speak in some impenetrable monotone ... without my file of samples, their reports would be moth-eaten.


good luck - if your company has a chat board or if contacting someone else on that account/WT might be a (much less convenient and/ or discrete) alternative.


Good luck, Yes, people do actually quit jobs over dictators like that ... too bad so many companies seem to blame the MT and some imaginary work ethic problems when the real problem, imho, is lack of support. 


All this turnover of MTs (or any other employee class) is VERY VERY bad for any company's bottom line...  but so many companies seem to blame the MT personally ... it poisonous.


 


I emailed you directly nm

Look at post directly below yours
 
I contacted them directly and they
told me they were NOT hiring..... Makes me sad :(
She said that the OP directly told her
and other coworkers all these things in instant message. 
Nandan has been told many times. He never has responded to
what he was told. They had a great team the Spring of 2004 and all left and what was left in management were the remnants with an owner of a co that they purchased from her, so she was it! Everyone else had to listen to her jibberish and kiss her b*tt!!

Good people got away, management caliber. Sad, but that's how they operate
I can only assume that the company which has not responded is either of the opinion that (sm)
if you are seriously interested in the position, you will find a way to take the test -- wav pedal or not, or just haven't had time to respond yet.  I've tested without a pedal and, while yes it is more time consuming, it can be done. As far as the dial up is concerned, I would think that if sent them an email requesting their system requirements, the information would be divulged, within a day or so.
Nice that they responded, but would've saved..sm
I get that they are relatively new, but with nothing at all coming up on Google search (not even a phone listing), it's understandable why people questioned. I still think it's strange there is literally nothing available online, even using her name and variations, but the address seems to be an office building of sorts, so that seems plausible.

Good luck to those who applied. I hope it ends up being a diamond in the rough. :)
I accidentally responded to wrong person
I got trigger-finger happy hehe
I emailed you before for info about KS and you have not responded. I am looking for information sm
on them, and you said that you had a reason for their high turnover. I am trying to make a decision this weekend. ***
Once upon a time, a surgeon responded to my concerns
The girls were tearing up the 3 surgeons up one side and down the other. And OMG, what they had to say about the office manager!!! I felt they were betraying the man who fed them. So...I went into his office and said, Dr., the morale is very low, the office staff are very upset, threatening to find new jobs and I thought it should be addressed during a staff meeting.

His response was: Do not pay attention to what they say. Venting is a necessary part of being a part of the work force (when you are an employee). The doctor brushed it off,did not want to hear the details and he did not really care who was the instigator. He felt that as long as they showed up on time, held up their end of the load and were pleasant with the patients (anorectal surgeons - ouch).

That office staff who whined and complained and ridiculed was with the surgical team for over 10 years - An RN, 2 front office, insurance cler and med Records gal.

Huge Bonuses (which say THANK YOU!) at Christmas brought momentary pleasantness but come mid January, they'd start again, feeding off each other, like a bunch of women at a Sewing Circle (have you seen the pic on this website depicting us as women in a sewing circle, dear?)

Bottom line - it is harmless. If money is there and then not there, without warning, a person who is not complaining about it is the one I'd be curious about.
I've not worked for them directly, but have been...
in contact with the upper management off an on for other matters. Very personable, level-headed, and presumably much SANER than some other company higher-ups that we've all discussed here!
You may want to call and ask them directly on Monday...
but I believe it depends on the way you were hired. If you are an hourly employee, your PTO would be paid at that rate. If you are production based, your PTO rate is paid at your average production over a period of three months. You must maintain a minimum line count though. Rochelle would know better.
loudspeakers directly overhead? I could
ouch
E-mail me directly, I'm not posting it on here
too often, and I don't want them to figure out who I am before I make my decision. All I can tell you on here is, make sure whatever you agree to with them, you GET IT IN WRITING.
Talk to the CFO directly. Don't stand for this.

No. Then you get the great "work for us directly"

directly from the horses mouth

I quite agree with communicating directly
It takes absolutely zero integrity to post grievances on an anonymous chat board. In my view, integrity demands that we take our complaints to those who have the power to do something about them--otherwise you are not handling the complaints productively or with integrity--you are just whining. As they used to say back in the day, don't say behind someone's back what you would not say right to their face. I think the way MDI has been treated on this board is shameful. Many of you owe an apology for your behavior and actions. (And have you considered that what you say can be legally actionable?) If any company works for you, stay; if it does not work for you, leave. There are all kinds of companies for all kinds of people. Keep trying and you are likely to find the right fit. Please consider how you might feel if someone came on a chat board and bashed you anonymously. You know, that old saying about the Golden Rule? In my book, anonymous attacks are about the cheapest sellout there is, integrity-wise. Think about it.
Ask a simple question, everyone goes directly
.
In my communication directly with Transcend...
I was informed they do not have PT openings, only full-time.

As I believe CynicalMT said, TRUST NO ONE at this juncture.

I believe both companies are simply trying to keep everyone calm until THEY decide to drop the other shoe.

Don't know if they even exist. I live right here in NY and they've never responded to my resum
