been with them for 2 years.  I almost did not go with them because of some negative postings on here but I am glad I did.  Shorthand is the easiest to use and from what you received (foot pedal and adaptor), I am going to assume that you are on the same account or similar to mine as I know that there are two new openings on that account.  If it is CMC, you will love it after you get used to it.  I bought my own copy of Shorthand so that it would remain mine, and it is under $100, I think $89.  The website is www.pcshorthand.com. 

Best advice - ask questions if you are unsure.  They are a great group.  Val is in charge of radiology and is very, very nice and helpful.  Ask for her if you need help

I worked for them (the one in Springfield, MA) for about 18 months, up until September.  I ended up quitting because there was no work and I could not get anyone, from my account supervisor to HR management, to either a) tell me why the account I was on dried up even though the docs had just opened a second office, or b) get me onto an account that had work, or even c) respond to half my emails (account manager).  I did enjoy the work, it was straight typing (the platform I was on, they have 2), and the work was pretty consistent until mid-July.  After six weeks of begging, I had to move on.  Oh, and the kicker?  When I would actually get work, I could tell by the job number that literally 10s of thousands of jobs had moved through the system since the last time I worked.  But they couldn't find any jobs for me to do....And don't zing me on QA, please.  In the 18 months I was there I only had maybe 5-6 reports come back to be fixed or with notes from the client, and that was early on.

Now, having said that - if they called me and offered me work again under a different account supervisor would I take it? Absolutely. 

There are many different Sten-Tels out there, and from what I can tell they are mostly franchises, with the main branch being the one in Springfield.  They pay once a month, and the checks were usually delievered via USPS anywhere from actually on the 15th to up to a week later.  There were some pay discrepancies a couple of times, but as soon as I mentioned them they were fixed. 

Hope that helps.

I'm not an editor, but the staff, editors and MTs are great to work with.  I am happy there.

I am from South Carolina and know the new account they are obtaining very well.  I have called, tested (they emailed me back and said I passed) and emailed and have not heard anything.  This would be a dream account for me as I have worked for many of the doctors on this account in the past.  Any advice?
