I was going to apply and asked about benefits and was told that as of May 1 they were getting new

In Reply to: Keystrokes' insurance was not canceled. They are looking for better rates and coverage sm - KSMT

insurance, thus no quotes on insurance rates could be given. I know someone who works there now and she states there still is no new insurance nor any rate quotes being able to be given. Sorry but I found that odd. Obviously, if they decided to stay with the old company and not cancel as of May 1, then shouldnt they have quotes to give them. They have no idea what the insurance will be, costs etc..So, if the employee is wrong, I apologize. I can only by what I was told and what they were told. As we all know, it is not the first time and will not be the last in which there is miscommunication.

I asked and was told they do not.
If you can prove something different, please do share.
You asked what would I do and then told me what you would do
Years ago if I wanted a job I would have gone along with the boss, would really have no choice. You have to eat, have a roof over your head and I have been in situations to where I could bite the head off nails I would be so ticked BUT that was years ago, now I could just say stuff it and good to be in that position.
Here Here!!! I just called the Social Security office to apply for benefits, and somebody is already
They needed and had my medical records to do this.!
That is what I was told by QA. I asked management
but never got a response.
I asked once and was told to Run, Run far away.. Nonpayer..
Yucky work, lots of ESL to boot, but that is all I was told. At one point, they had a F rating with the BBB but I'm not sure about that status now.
What I was told when I asked for a raise - sm
We are not offering raises at this time, but if you want to make more you can type more lines.  Gee, now why didn't I think of that???
When I asked about less and less work, I was told
that no MDI work is being done by Transcend because they have no access to the MDI platforms / clients. It was suggested that the economy may be taking its toll.
When I asked Cymed supervisor I was told
that this means the sign-on bonus.  She was rather evasive.?????
What?? they have asked you to work the account but never told you how much your pay is??
Sounds strange to me.. They would make me nervous as that should be the first thing they discuss.. or at least that is what I would want to know right off before I wasted my time with them.
Was asked when hired, told them I wanted M-F...
and fortunately for me, they had M-F accounts that were a good fit for me. I've only been there 2 months but feel like I've landed in a good spot!
I asked today and was told they didn't know when
they would be getting new accounts for DQS. I wish everyone would get on the same page.
I asked the office about the rates and that is what I was told. My x-DH has that insurnance sm
and it is not expensive and he says that it is better than the BCBS that they used to have at his job.
Superior Global-out of Plano, TX..anyone else apply recently, told they were hiring quickly and to
do the testing ASAP..only to do the testing ASAP and then hear nothing. Trust me, the testing WAS NOT hard so I can't believe I wouldn't have passed that part. I followed up with emails as to whether they received my tests back etc..but nothing. no response. I find that rude. Even a simple, Dear John, we aren't hiring you would have been polite than nothing at all..Unprofessional
When I asked about line count, was told they were working on getting that available but I worked
+
Where I work I was told I had to get them in or be put back to PT status and lose benefits. nm
.
When they called me and I asked them if they offshored, they asked me why that was my business!
xx
I don't hesitate to ask. Have been told "yes", and have been told "no." Never been to
:+
Sad but true. You're asked to work NOW, then asked to stop NOW, then go again and then stop
If you dont get off the minute the hospital asks, even if you have no idea that they have requested that your to be off, then the hospital MTs steal your work right out of your queue and I mean reports you have already done. I dont understand the concept of having a contract with a hospital and then having to fight for work with the hospital MTs. We should have guaranteed work during our shift and enough of the the hospital wants you to help right now and then a few hours later they want us to stop working as the work is too low. It is crazy and I couldnt work like that so I had to quit.
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.
x
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.
