ATSI is always constantly posting the same ads over and over again because they never can hire quality MTs.

ATSI--I'm believing the posts from below..
I mentioned below that I was emailed asking when I was going to be available for an interview, which I responded yesterday or today,  NOTHING.  NADA.  Thank you to the posters below for the heads up about ATSI!!
Reason I deleted a couple of posts here (SM)
The post above is answering the original thread.

If you wish to discuss any other topics on MQ, we have an MQ board for it.

Otherwise, simply stay to the topic and answer the original thread.

I see there is an ad on MT Jobs for MDI Maryland and I was reading the posts below about overhiring
on the accounts. Is this a situation that seems to be getting worse on all accounts. I was interested in talking with the lady but not if there is no work. I have that problem now and I dont need it again. Seems like that is the new thing with MT companies to see who can have the shortest turnaround time. Are MDI Maryland accounts loaded with ESLs or decent accounts.
They advertise on the "other" jobs board. Lots of posts about them here. nm

Cherrypicking is when you work from a pool of jobs and being able to reject the worst jobs to those
,
Monster Jobs and Career Builder usually have a few path jobs. nm

Don't think any do except for those in-house jobs. Some QA jobs are paid hourly. nm

They didn't take our jobs, QT gave them our jobs. The account is now
back in the hands of US MTs, or will be in just a couple of weeks.  
You can be fired for any reason or no reason at all.
No one HAS to employ you. No one MUST keep you in employment.

As an IC, your unemployment isn't coming from the account of your contracts! It comes from YOUR tax payments!


Are MTs that are looking for jobs finding good jobs right now with everyone looking or is it
getting more difficult to find a good job.  I am most interested in jobs for experienced MTs with more than 10 years service.  I wonder if it is better to put a resume on or just keeping applying or what is the best way to go about this.

ATSI-ALSO
E-MAIL ME MAYBE WE CAN CHAT, I JUST DID THE SAME AND FEEL THE SAME WAY
ATSI
Heard they won a new bid for a womens' hospital in Oklahoma City, and cannot fill the positions.
ATSI
Yes, MT-World software is affiliated with ATSI and Zylomed in Florida

Everyone there seems to be very nice and professional.  Payment is every two weeks and comes on time via mail. 
Anything on ATSI?

ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ATSI TRANSCRIPTION? I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME ADVICE. DONNA
ATSI
American Transcription Solutions.Inc. Out of florida.
ATSI
Any information on this company is appreciated.  Line rate for typing and editing, platform, friendly staff, etc?  TIA
ATSI
Does anyone know anything about American Transcription Solutions, Inc. located in Florida?  TIA!
ATSI
line rate from what i understand varies a little by experience, but it is competitive from what i have seen..do not want to post what i am paid as my situation and experience may be differnet than yours..

the platform is pretty user friendly. unless you are working on the insourced work, which goes on that company's platform, ATSIs platform works with your own copy of microsoft word.

the people are very helpful and friendly. i have never been happier with a job choice. of course, everyone's experience will be different. i have seen a lot of negative things posted about ATSI on here, and I am not sure I understand as my experience has been totally different than what i have seen here
ATSI
I've read old posts, but I was wondering if any recent MTs could fill me in on how they like working for this company.  I tested with them and am mostly curious on how the workload is and the platform.  Do you run out of work consistently, or is it just rarely?  Is the pay on time and how often?  Are you spending a lot of time on demographics?

Any help is greatly appreciated.  I have an interview this next week.
ATSI
I tested for them also and they e-mailed me back and said I tested very well and wanted to set up an appointment. An appointment was set a couple days before the appointment I received another e-mail that said a client's start was delayed and they were were trying very hard to get them on board and would call me when they did. That was a week ago and I still haven't heard anything from them. Did you test for the discharge summary position? Thanks
ATSI
Good luck!
ATSI
Anyone have any info on ATSI, curious as to their average line rates.  I have over 15 years experience with Basic 4.  Thanks
Does anyone know anything about ATSI? nm

ATSI
They hired me, but I have not been given any paperwork, rate pay, etc. Not so sure about this company. They seem nice, but they never return my phone calls. I am always having to call them to find out the status of my hiring status, etc. I am still waiting after 3 days.....
ATSI
If I were you, I would not accept employment with them. They promise you the world up front and then they don't come through with their promises. They are a very misleading company if you ask me. They hired me a few weeks back and never discussed training, etc. and basically screwed around with me. I told them thanks but no thanks and quit before I even did any transcription for them. To be honest, I have heard more negative about this company than positive.
ATSI but
Not all the accounts and I can't recommend you go to work for them. I have worked them, I liked it when I was there, but you can search the archives for information about ATSI.
ATSI
Here's a situation where you can believe the negatives about this company.  My story is similar to others' here.  ATSI is deceptive.
ATSI

I've heard good things about this company lately, looking at what they are offering - impressive!  I also hear there is plenty of work and they only hire US MTs period, no deceptive off-shoring which is truly appreciated.  Anyone else interested in this company?


atsi

Anybody know about this company in Maryland, Aero Transcription Service, Inc?  TIA. Do they pay on time?  How is their platform?




ATSI
earlier this year, supervisors were hired and fired again within a week; they had many issues starting up a big account, took months to get tech problems worked out. NOT a stable reliable service
ATSI
ATSI ...sometimes the pay is late and not accurate. Supervisor does not give feedback, you can stay on QA for months. Not enough work...
ATSI
I have been working with them for about a month now, and I really enjoy them. There is always plenty of work and everyone has been really nice.
ATSI

Do yourself a favor.  RUN away from ATSI.  Their pay is late.  Their management turns over very quickly and they lie on a consistent basis.  Their business practices are unethical if not downright illegal.  Please, unless you are desperate...you owe it to yourself to try to find something better than these slimers.  I've been in transcription for 15+ years, and this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for me.  I'm leaving as soon as I can get another job.  As a matter of fact, after this one, I'm leaving transcription altogether. 


ATSI

Is this company good to work for?

Is ATSI a good company to work for?

The cold slap of reality is that the US has let itself gravitate towards outsourcing and has cut off its nose to spite its face - what a euphenism.

It sickens me how the MT industry is at an all-time low. So many companies out there are outsourcing. Clients think they save, but there is no integrity. Medical records that are absolutely butchered and are nonsensical!? What the h*ll!? MTs have a very demanding job mentally and physically, and there are many of us excellent MTs still out there, thinking about the patients and the role we have played in the generation of their records. What thanks do we get? Pay cuts, forget about any shred of respect, and on and on. Without us MTs, there would be NO companies!

Money HAS become the root of all evil, and the above-mentioned scenario has much to do with that.
ATSI
Within three week of becoming employee and now they start to nitpick. Older QA's love to make waves.
ATSI also does not keep their sm
promises. I had a job offer and signed a contract with them two weeks ago. Had an apt for software installation. Day of apt, called at 8:30, person not there. Waited until 10 a.m. and called back. Receptionist said he was not there and recruiter was too busy to talk. Sent recruiter several messages as to what was going on, no answer. When I said I thought I would just not work for them, I immediately go an e-mail back with a bunch of excuses. Too many lies. I finally reported them to the BBB. I would say stay away from ATSI. Also, they pay half what everyone else is paying for QA.
ATSI

Be careful with ATSI.  The communication that management has is very poor.  Not sure if this woman (Debra) works or not or she thinks she's too high and mighty to communicate with her MTs.  Very disappointed in this company.  Miss Phyllis.. she was always around for anyone and everyone.  Very pleasant and professional lady.  No wonder she left this company. 


ATSI
I work for ATSI - tell me what this is please. Is it something I have to worry about. Been working with them a little over a year. Thanks for any information.
what is ATSI
nm
ATSI
You are so right.  ATSI is a nightmare.  I worked for them for about 5 weeks and it was the worse job ever.  They told me in the interview it was 40% ESL.  It is about 85-90%.  I never typed American doctors.  All ESL.  It was just horrible dictation.  If they find out you cannot do the bad ESL, then you become a part of their hate list.  Don't work for this company is my advice.  The platform was great though.  I liked it really well.  If you like and ENJOY ESL doctors, then this job is for you. 
ATSI
I would say...NO, NO, NO do not take this job.  They are about 85% ESL and maybe higher.  The worse dictators in the United States.  The account I was on was a training hospital for the doctors who just arrived in the US.  Honestly, I think they just stepped off the plane.  I have 20 years experience and I have typed MANY MANY ESL doctors and I could not understand these.  They told me in the interview it was 40% ESL.  That is a HUGE lie.  I should have quit after I realized it was not 40%.  I suffered 5 or 6 very long weeks with them and SOOOOO relieved not to be there.  Do not go to work for them unless you just LOVE ESL doctors.  Why don't they put them on speech recognition systems?  I have nothing good to say except they do have a good platform.  I liked how easy it was.  Other than that....the ESL doctors are bad bad.  
ATSI, formerly MT-World?
  Lots of work right now.  Pretty good accounts, not a lot of ESLs.  Direct deposit every 2 weeks.  Good work platform.  Some benefits.
Is MT-World the same as ATSI?
Would like more info on ATSITIA
Does ATSI pay for spaces? nm TIA
....
ATSI or Probity

Does anyone have any experience with either company?   ATSI is in Clearwater, FL.  Any information please!



Do not work for ATSI
I did not like the company at all. Horrible pay. I did not like the hiring manager whatsoever. Very snotty. Not worth your time or money with this company.
