FOREIGN MT

YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT.  FOREIGN OR NOT, THESE PEOPLE DESERVE THE RIGHT TO LEARN AND PRODUCE AND MAKE A LIVING.  WE ARE TO POMPOUS AS INDIVIDUALS IN THIS BUSINESS. ONLY AMERICANS CAN PRODUCE QUALITY, BOLOGNA.  I AM A QA SWAT TEAM MEMBER OF A LARGE SERVICE AND WE HAVE QUITE A BIT OF OFFSHORE WORK DONE, THE QUALITY IS BETTER THAN MOST AMERICAN MTs.  YES THEY ARE NOT PRIVY TO AMERICAN SLANG AND TO THEM THE LANGUAGE A LANGUAGE, MUCH LIKE AN ESL DOCTOR TO US, SO DOES THAT MEAN WE DON'T TRANSCRIBE, SWEAT AND MANY TIMES LEAVE BLANKS ALL OVER THE PLACE.  WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WITH OUR ATTITUDES ABOUT THESE FOLKS.  YES THEY MAKE MISTAKES, BUT THEY ARE THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE OF OUR TRADE.  THE MORE HOSPITALS, CLINICS, ETC WANT COMPETITIVE CHARGES, THE MORE YOU WILL USE INDIANS, CHINESE, KOREANS, ETC TO APPLY THIS TRADE.


I CAN SPEAK AFTER 20+ YEARS.

Not foreign company
I work for Globespan Medical, Inc and it is not a foreign company as you are thinking. They are based out of California and do not outsource, so not sure what you are seeing and where that they are foreign.
not foreign either but can't get to the site. nm

Foreign Company
You don't want to work for a foreign company why? I'm sure that you purchase items from foreign companies. Everything is going overseas because it is cheaper. Focus is a great company to work for. I've been there for 1 year and haven't had any issues with them. Just because they are foreign doesn't make them a bad company.
Once foreign owned, always foreign owned.

Let us know when you accomplish that with foreign MTs.
I'm curious as to how long it takes.
So now we have to put up with this foreign garbage.... sm
undercutting us and taking our work with such poor grammar? You've got to be kidding. This is ridiculous.

If you click on that job listing, at the bottom of the page is a moderator link. Click on that and it will bring up all the moderators e-mails. Let's all e-mail them with thumbs down and get these messages removed.

Red angry smiley face to these moderators and definite thumbs down.
This is a foreign company.
This will offshore all they can. The American MT is the bottom feeder here. Beware!
I smell a foreign spy. You need to...
Leave the board before I report you to Customs and Immigration. LOL.
If you look up the foreign name and the web address

it's associated with /transindiatranscribers.  If you're concerned about offshoring, might want to give this one a miss.


 


 


No, not foreign sounding
Try ebonics.
Sure it does. It's a myth that foreign cars are better. sm

Does anyone keep jap cars long enough to find out?    We have American vehicles ranging from 2001 back to 1960.  Still running.  It started in the 70s when the factories started closing as goods were being made in Japan, and continued on.   Now it's China and India gobbling up our jobs. 


If the new owners allow foreign posts,
at the top of the JobSeekers page.  It's the second listing on it.  It very clearly states no MTs outside of the US.  I realize it dates pre-new owners, but they should remove that if they are going to allow such postings.
Oh, I agree, but the owner is foreign, so

Webmedx is NOT offshore, nor foreign owned. 100% US. nm

Me too -- foreign websites galore that i found

You should check out the Nuance website and the Focus website
Nuance is Dictaphone and since a lot of use Dictaphone equipment, you can say we all have something to do with this. If you are surprised at the website above, look at the US website of nuance. Just IMHO and try to get both sides of the corporation.
And stop buying foreign cars for crying out loud. sm
Look at the 10s of thousands of workers who are being laid off from GM and Ford after giving decades of their lives.  Thanks to all you people who buy foreign cars.

There was an article about how "wonderful" this company is in the Baltimore Business Journal earlier this year. Wonderful, my hiney!! The checks bounce, they are an Indian-owned company, the work is beyond horrible. They also have a couple of American companies that they use as a backdoor, and use an American as the representative front person.
They are located in Ohio....sm
An offshoot of one of the major health systems here in the Akron area. Were just recently started and are trying to get their feet wet in the national arena. Primarily were doing nothing but local work just a few months ago and very disorganized at the time. Don't know what they're like now. Benefits seemed good, comparable, but were just getting started. Originally wanted 150 lph with 98% quality and a rather harsh grading scale. For instance, medical word misuse was minus 5 percentage points, omitted (consequential) dictation minus 5 points, medical misspelling minus 3 points, and so on.... Hope this helps!
Is this company located in NYC???
If it is, I'm very surprised by this. A few years ago they were quite reputable.
Stroudsburg PA is where they are located
Anything?

Joanna is the owner, she lives in Spain at the moment and that is probably why the caller ID did what it did.  The way I understood it is Joanna and she has one FT IC who works with/for her.  HTH.
