I found a company online offering MT jobs, as well as an 8 week course you could take if you wanted to.  They say "minimal experience is okay."  The company is Med Trans Inc.  Anyone heard of them??  Should I steer clear?

Hiring

Hi I'm I guess what they would call a an MT newbie. How exactly can you get the 2 years experience that most companies require if they won't hire you without having any experience? It seems like every company on the internet wants a minimum of 2 years experience. I am just starting out in this field and would actually like to work as an IC.


the hiring of new mt's

Can someone give some ideas on how to break into this business? Who hires the "newbies"?  Please give some company names that may take on some new mt's


Why isn't she hiring you since she sm
recommended you go there?
Didn't she sell it, or just your company to an offshore company. The woman

has a screw loose. 


And Spheris is definitely hiring because they sent me
a postcard in the mail. I've never worked there before, but they want me to apply there. I haven't heard good things about their software in the past, so I doubt I've ever applied with them.
Meditech is hiring right now for
Jumpstart internship and MT jobs. Contact Corie@meditec.com for info.
Hiring Newbies
Medi-Voxx out of Louisville Kentucky hired me right out of school. I've been with them for close to one and a half years now. I love the work and the company is great. They mentored me and I can't say enough good things about this company. Give them a try.
Focus always hiring
I started there as a newbie and they were great. I still work for them part time, along with another company. They were very patient and they QA you until you are ready to be on your own. You will still get feedback even after to get off QA. They will give you a chance if you do okay on the test. They hired me even though I did not completely pass the test, but they said I did well enought to hire. Now I have greater than 98% accuracy on a consistent basis. They are a decent company, despite some of the negative posts I have read about them from others. I also do agree it is best to have more than one company once you get some experience. Every once in a while they do run low on work.

Good Luck,

Sue
hiring newbies
Hi. Have you tried MediVoxx? They hired me as a newbie right out of school and mentored me for the past two years. I love working for them. If you are interested, please email me and I will give you information on how to apply. Best of luck to you either way. It is a hard field to get into, but is rewarding when you do.
Hiring new grads
Does anyone have any information on which companies might be hiring new grads, or anyone willing to give a newbie a chance? I am having a hard time finding work, and I've been out of school for about 6 weeks. Is this unusual or am I expecting too much too soon? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are you not passing the hiring tests or isn't

Are there any companies hiring graduates?

I graduated from Career Step program and looking for a second shift position.  Does anybody work for a company that is currently hiring graduates?  Thanks for any responses! 


No, the woman who owns this company can't transcribe herself, much less run a company.

Any company that charges anything to work is not a reputable company. However,
if a company offers a job and requires that you have a certain pedal and offers to provide it and then take it out of say your first paycheck or couple of paychecks, then that is acceptable.

My belief is that companies that charge you for software or anything else is trying to make money off of you.

While $11.95 isn't much, figure that amount times 10 or 20 or 100 and what do you come up with? Smells like a scam to me.
company was sold so they have no company to hire you after graduation!
They are not a reputable school and I went there so I should know. Even when they did have Trans. Relief Services they never answered my email about employment upon graduation.
No ESLs on my account, but they're not hiring.

Their current ad on the other board says they're hiring

Did the MTSO, who is saintly for hiring newbies,
x
I work for a small MTSO. They aren't hiring - sm
I've been with them for years, and they still have the same group of 10-12 MTs. Very steady, but they rarely hire new people.
"hiring MTSOs" would mean MTSOs that are currently hiring peope. n/m

What company?
Hello, I recently read your comment and was wondering what company that was that hired you as a newbie? I'm just starting out and I need to work at home to be with my son. Would you mind networking with me! Nice to meet you..e-mail me at kennyandjenny@hotmail.com
thanks! Sincerely, Jennifer Hokanson

not sure if this is the same company, but...

A friend of mine who was recently looking for a job had been talking to a lady from New England Transcription (not sure if this is the same company??) and had been given the total run around from them. 


First the lady said that they paid 9 cents a line to start, then when my friend got the contract (which she had to call the lady for 5 or 6 times), it said 5 cents a line.  Then she never heard from the lady who hired her until the day before she was supposed to begin the job.  Then, the day she was supposed to start, she was told there was no work, and she should call back in a few weeks. 


Needless to say, she didn't take this job, but it wasted about 3 weeks (from the time she accepted the position until they told her it was no longer available due to lack of work). 


If this is the same company, maybe ask for the contract up front and review it carefully.  Ask what the work load is like and all that good stuff.  Hopefully it's not the same place.


Company
May I ask which company you are working for?
Take the job if you like the company
I would take the job if the company seems professional. The pay rate seems reasonable for someone coming out of school. If the people you are working for are helpful, you will gain tremendous experience. If they will help you with further training, then you are off to a good start. Taking a job with a higher rate and being in over your head might not be the best path. Just my opinion.
What company is it?
.
If you like the company then I would
You can load it and it will have (I think) 2 operating systems but XP should work fine. Not a lot of places are compatible with Vista yet that I know of.
Why do you think that the company you
work for should bend over backwards to give you the account you want? I am sure other MTs are on that account, so would it be fair to take someone off just because you want it???? If you want to find another job fine, but don't think that just because you want certain accounts you will get them. We all take the bad with the good.

About the company
Yes i surely can. It is a SCAM company, STAY AWAY from it if you don't want to lose your money and time.
What is the company name
What is the company name?
I have yet to see a company that uses MAC. The
programs used are not compatible.
bad company
If they are the company that asks you to give them $400 (or something like that) then stay away. Any company that makes you pay for their "software and training" is crap. There are too many better companies out there that don't require you to pay to work for them. Would you go to any other job and pay to work for a company? It's a little backwards.
If it's a reputable company, yes. SM
Some companies do charge a small lease or rental fee.
company advice

Just wanted to know if anybody has ever worked for Breitner Transcription and what they are like?


Thanks!


I think that depends on the company

I think some companies but a time frame on when  you can test again if you do not do well the first time.  Good luck


depends upon the company

The company I'm an IC with is located in CA but I live in TN. Since I've had a problem with my sleep for *years,* it was an ideal situation in terms of what accounts to put me on. I'm in charge of H&Ps on three specific accounts. They need the reports by 6 a.m. their time, which is 8 a.m. my time. No problem. It's rare for me to sleep until 4:45 a.m. Usually, I'll get up around 2:30 to 3 p.m. I just go back to sleep for a few hours when the morning rush is done. My work day ends by 4 p.m. my time, which is 2 p.m. their time.


Position at company
I am a newbie but would be interested in the company that is hiring. Could you how to reach them?
Sounds like a company I know in
Alabama near 280.  If it is and you want to talk, send me an email.  I worked there before.
This is problematic. You may get a company that
specializes in ER notes to test you. You should also look for ads featuring in clinic work. There is no way that you can apply for acute care because you don't any OP experience and it doesn't appear that you have much other acute care. Good luck.
If they are a reputable company and have really
hired you, then yes, they will require this in order to employ you. How else can they avoid hiring illegals or escaped felons, etc.
Good company?
I am a well trained and experienced professional MT and have been for 13 years now.  I have been looking at several of the work-at-home companies out there.  Does anyone out there work for ImageStat Corporation and are they a good company to work for? 
What is this wonderful company
So what is the name of this company you started working at home from in 2 days after grad?  What's their website.  Help out the people looking please
Wow! I could be working for the same company!
I felt the exact same as you do!! After six months I am finally on paid status, but the pay is not much. Good luck! Let me know if you find anything better!
MT company supervisors

I have just started with a large MT company and I barely hear from my supervisor.  I am very self-reliant, but had some basic questions for him.  He was offline the first day (he had never contacted me at that point) and when I finally caught him on the phone he said he would send me an e-mail with answers.  That was two days ago.


I was just curious if this was typical for the industry?
