PRN Transcription?? anyone?? - darbysmom


Posted: Nov 19, 2009

Anyone have any information about P.R.N. Transcription?  Got a reply on a resume I sent out and am wondering what type of company they are???  Good, bad, ugly?

I would avoid PRN like the plague. Horrible platform, impossible to make any money. Nice people, terrible platform.

So the company is good? - A Yearbie

So just the platform is terrible, in your opinion. As a whole though the company is decent?

PRN platform - fingersfallingoff

Warning!! Even if the people bend over backwards for you and give you everything you ever dreamed of in a job, a platform that is not user friendly can make or break you. Unless you just want a job for fun and not in it for the money.
OK, jsut trying to differentiate. - A Yearbie

To me there is a difference in Good company, Bad platform or it may be my inexperience showing. I just thought the comment to the question "Is this a good company" of "Avoid them like the plague" was misleading since it generalized the company as being bad based primarily on its crappy platform. Good point though because if your not able to make enough money at what your doing that would be crappy.

Just a friendly suggestion. You will need to really proofread anything (including applications) before sending them. You will need to differentiate between YOUR and YOU'RE and use them correctly. I do HR (not for PRN) and know what people look for. I am not trying to provoke an outburst; I AM trying to help you see what you need to do to get hired.
it is just a forum - Meagain

this is an informal site, and you can use this time as a time to be loose with your proofreading. give them a break. I dont like how this site tears apart every person who tries to ask a question.
No outburst here. - A Yearbie

That would be fine if this were a post on "how to get a job" or "What am I doing wrong". I have already had a massive earful of what I am doing wrong on another post. You were there as well. Thanks though, it NEVER gets old.
As long as we're on the topic, BOB, - Starzzz

do not forget that you never end a sentence with a preposition; just sayin'
nice but not nice enough to make it worth it - they are in the beginning...
[ In Reply To ..]
They have to be nice in the beginning or nobody would even try it. Then after a while you figure, you might ask for a raise to make up for the struggle making lines and they don't answer your emails...........they figure you must be desperate if you haven't quit yet so they string you along until you quit.

As far as decent in terms of being honest, yes, they are honest. But you cannot make any money there. You might give them a try, who knows, maybe you would like it. Different things work for different people. But remember, they will scrutinize every typed word. Don't be offended when QA sends you corrections. It's all part of the business. Good luck.

Not too good - had to leave

Hey the pay sounded great, the lady interviewing was very nice and then the reality hits you... you can't make money on it. I figured it out... I normally can make anywhere from 150 to 200 lph but on p.r.n. lousy platform, I could only make about 70 in an hour.

No spell REAL spell check, no scrolling.. bascially tabbing to fill in lines. ugh

quit yesterday - nadame

[ In Reply To ..]
i just couldn't make what i needed to...and more importantly, what i know i can...i was told the spellcheck "learns" that docs words, but apparently it does it all over again for each transcriptionist...very strange platform and seems to be very counterproductive, but what do i know....i did stick it out for over a month too, and I got to 180 lph with 10+/yrs experience, by blowing past the "proofing"....but it was definately not going higher than that....if your desperate for work maybe, not so much here good luck!!

May 17, 2010

Since the advent of voice recognition and overseas outsourcing, transcription has ceased to be a profession.   I will NEVER -- repeat, NEVER make the money I was making as a transcriptionist at a hospital 5 years ago, before we were replaced by VR and cheap outsourcing to India.   Now all that's left are transcription companies here in the U.S. that don't want to pay much more, lie to us and tamper with our line counts.   GET OUT, GET OUT OF TRANSCRIPTION! ...


A Day Without Transcription?
May 28, 2010

It seems that everyone has negative things to say about how employers do not pay MTs what they're worth and how they offshore the easy stuff, but pile on the lousy ESL stuff on the transcriptionists in the States. Too bad there can't be a general strike of U.S. MTs - a day without transcription - just to show how we're needed. It seems to be the only thing employers would understand. Impossible, I know, but I bet employers would sit up and take notice. ...

PLEASE..do not be foolish enough to work for this company!!  They are offerring 3 cents for VR.  A seasoned MT well versed in voice recognition software, particularly Editscript, produced by eEscription out of Massachusetts, can make 500-600 lines per hour. At 3 cents a line that is slave wages. It will average you 12 cents a line on a good account.  I knew this would happen eventually.  I am making 4.5 cents on Editscript and making 28-30 an hour before my IC status. Do not ...
