Athreon - got a call last week for an application in MAY - brundy304


Posted: Dec 31, 2014

Thanks for everyone's posts on this company.  I got a call last week for an application in MAY.   Sure enough, I started asking questions about what I learned from this post (no pay for spaces, IC Business license requirements and pay schedules) and while they gave me that information on the 'first interview' when they did not others, I just got my letter stating we probably were not a good fit.   Also, she made sure to let me know they were hiring without having clients to support the staff.

I went through all the "hoops" last summer as everything sound promising in the initial interview. I got a call to say that I was "hired" and "when can I start?" I told them that I could start within 5 days of that conversation as I was leaving for vacation that evening. They said that was fine and in the meantime they would send the paperwork and to contact them when I got back to set up a start date. When I got back, I checked my E-mail, no paperwork. I called them and they said they hired someone else as they needed someone immediately.

Good thing you didn't get hired. Its crap there. Went through the whole get a license, business name, etcetera and still got canned because I did meet their standards of transcription. I am a seasoned transcriptionist and a good one. Can't even tell you how demeaning they were with their QA. You are much better off.

Why Do MTSO Advertise, But Never Call Or If They Do Call, Nothing.
Feb 20, 2012

I am tired and frustrated from applying and sending out resumes only to be ignored.  It is like a game with them, I think.  MedGarde even has an interview which has absolutely nothing to do with your skills or qualifications.  In fact it seems like psychological testing to see if you are mentally competent or something like that.  I swear I feel like a mouse that is being tested and run through a maze to see how well you perform, but even mice will get the prize or food event ...


Reporting Time Pay Aka On Call Or Call-in Pay
May 08, 2015

I am considering requesting this pay which (depending on the state) considers us to be on-call and must be paid for part of our shift if no work. I have had it up to here with Nuance and running out of work, adding more and more accounts and STILL no work. Got a second job and STILL being screwed by Nuance in the sense that I cannot rely on my first job (income wise), because when there is enough work they manage to screw my cpl with their lovely FIESA, then as soon as I have no errors the work ...

I've got a bit of writer's block about how to reply to him so that he might cons ...

Question On Job Application
Nov 25, 2011

I quit my transcription job this past summer after almost 15 years in the transcription field. Everything that I enjoyed about transcription when I started was no longer there. I was tired of seeing my pay go down, benefits being taken away, and sitting for hours trying to get my work done. I wasn't sure if I was going to try and find another transcription job or just take some much needed time off. I was looking at some job postings at a local hospital, and they have a position for a s ...

Can someone please clue me in?   ...
