Last week I had 2 job offers for the same platform.... - Not a fool

Posted: Feb 6th, 2017 - 12:20 pm In Reply to: Thinking of being an IC? Read this before accepting a job offer... - My 2 cents

One was for 3.75 cpl editing/7 cpl transcription IC and the other was for employee rate of 3.5 and 7.5 - both on eScription. If a company can offer 3.5 and 7.5 on that platform and provide benefits why the heck would anyone accept 3.75/7 for IC status? I e-mailed the low quote company with details of the letter of the company that offered the better situation and told them that I saw through it - they were wanting to pocket the money but if they wanted to talk to me further they needed to offer a much higher line rate.
