M-TEC and Andrews produce MTs that are the cream of the crop.
M-TEC's course usually takes anywhere from 9-18 months to complete. I'm not sure about Andrews.

I have hired MTs from both those schools as well as other lesser-known schools, and the M-TEC and Andrews grads are the only ones that were worth keeping onboard.

I guess MedWare is the cream of the crop this week?

If I were an MTSO right now I would be picking up the cream of the crop as they jump ship (sm)

from MQ in preparation for new accounts.  I don't know that MQ will go under or be seriously harmed BUT I truly feel that there will be some accounts lost either due to quality or the hospital having misgivings about their work being sent overseas.  


We may find a lot of these companies are going to be over-staffed and work a little slimmer at times, but who can blame them?  If you find well trained MTs, get them on board and then be aggressive in soliciting those MQ accounts that might be up for grabs.


I wish good luck to the MTSOs out there who might be able to turn a bad situation for MQ into a profitable one for themselves and the United States.  They pay us in US, pay their taxes in US, we pay our taxes in the US, we make purchases in the US with our money.  Let's see, who missed out on that one, oh yeah our ILPs (international labor partners as MQ calls them). 


 


Absolutely! MDI-MD is the cream de la cream!

Sounds like ice cream to me

I just do my work and when rumors crop up call and ask. Simple as that...
too much panic and speculation makes for an unproductive day.
Ditto that ditto..ESLs drove me out too...nm

Ditto, ditto, ditto. My experience exactly.
I have never typed so fast and made so little in my life except for at Amphion. Good for supplemental income but not if you really need some money.

Excuse me for speaking my opinion. If those in the management team weren't so worried about shooting off RUDE emails maybe they could reply to a question I had last week that is now 120 hours old and still have no answer to my question. People just blow me away especially at SS.
Ditto.

Don't stretch what I said.  I said it was rude to say get a life to someone who is trying as hard as they can already. That's what my post was about, so don't twist my words either.  There is a shortage of work and you know it. You said it's common this time of year and I'm not arguing that.  I'm agreeing with you.  About time you recognized that there is a work shortage and stopped candy coating it.  Because this shortage has been going on for a while now, not just the summer months.  My post wasn't so much about the shortage as it was about the rude comment.  It WAS rude to those people who are already giving up a lot of their life to Transcend.  


ditto for me
Same here. (actually twice)

Ditto everything you are saying. MQ is definitely up to something and I think a lot of MTs are and
will continue to walk as they continue to come up with new ways it seems to get rid of MTs and QA people. I still think they are getting ready for a merger or sell out.
ditto
leave email address

I found nothing to like about it either. I'm actually taking a pay cut, to have more restrictions and expectations put on me, and benefits I don't need or want.

The $50 I'm losing every month on my internet pay was enough to make me want to quit, the rest was just icing on the cake.

I agree - and when you have no idea what to get anyone, let alone the money to buy it, plus all the other preparations that go with the season, it's just not worth it. The real reason for the season is totally disregarded. I truly hate this time of year.
Ditto...

Didn't pass the test either - though I thought I did pretty well.  Said I could retest in six months or if I was willing to purchase the required textbooks I could retest immediately.  I emailed them back asking what the required textbooks were, but never got an answer.  Oh, well!!


 


 


Ditto.
I'm always amazed at this. Yes, they most certainly do beg for the jobs and then when they get it...cry, cry, cry.

If you want work that is somewhat easy, go do clinic work. There is no such thing as easy acute care work. There are lots of dictators on most acute care accounts. Hospitals are pretty big...ya know? Big hospital=lots of docs.

You may want to go get a job in a different field. Your poor skills as an MT has nothing to do with Spheris. You'll always have poor skills if you don't try.
ditto the above about ETP
Totally disorganized, unprofessional, plays favorites, lies about work amount, low work most of the time and just generally treats their employees like cattle, worked there 4 years much to my dismay!!
Ditto that.

I couldn't have said it better myself.  Having done the rounds with other nationals and working in house, I am thrilled to be with this company after my 25+ as an MT professional.

Ditto on SS.

I have been an intern with Deb for a month now and she more than goes out of her way for those of us determied to be an MT. She is always nice and helpful and I feel very lucky to be learning from her.
Ditto!!
What an organized piece of sorry xcuse of a company!! I don't like having to ask and ask and ask and ask about my check. And, you see this woman on IM but yet she never answers you unless you send a threatening IM about reporting her to the company she subcontracts for. Gone from there for good!
Ditto!
Beautifully said!
Ditto and then some
None of SoftScript's managers know proper grammar or spelling, just pathetic, but must be an embarrassment when they contact their clients. With managers that dense you can do much better.

OSI managers know proper sentence construction with the exception of QA manager who is in a class by herself but they send work offshore so you don't need that.

Oracle and TTS are awful overall and MDI in FL outsources as well.

Hope this helps. Slim pickins.

They also give an anniversary bonus of $100 for each year you've worked for them. I'm a year away from my 5th anniversary when I will bump up to 3 weeks vacation. Great place.
ditto for me

I also would like to thank DRC/Acusis for the very nice MT week gift.  I am so proud for work for such a wonderful company.
Ditto for me...
Trained 1 day, worked 1 day, then no work...... quit.

Had huge issues with their line counting method. However, if everything sounds ok to you try it out and let us know if its gotten better.

Believe me I feel your pain. When I started at MQ I used dial up (i'm in the country too) but then was able to get satellite 'net. I don't know if they woulda hired me if I had been using satellite before but they know now and although they made it clear they don't prefer it, they know it's what I need for my job. Because of other problems I'm looking elsewhere for a job but the current trend is No Satellite internet, so I dunno. I may be stuck there afterall.

ditto what you say...

I have always gotten a prompt response to anything I asked. There is absolutely no problem with communication or anything else as far as I am concerned.
ditto
Everything she said! Like it much better and also like being an SE again.
DITTO! nm

My biggest beef is the poor communication. They ask you not to email unless it is emergency but then they get more email than they bargained for because they won't answer you until you send 3 or 4 emails. If they would answer the first one I would not have an issue. My honeymoon is definitely over.
Ditto above - just go away.
