Does it seem to you that more companies are hiring now than before. They all want 2nd or 3rd and - PAMT


Posted: Apr 17, 2012

are offering bonuses again.  I would expect at some point with supply and demand a lot of MTs including me will either get out of the business or go PT or retire and there will be less people looking for jobs.  Just a thought.  As far as overseas with EMR they will not be getting the work either that they used to so it should be interesting to see where this all goes.  It is already quite obvious to support a family you cannot do it very well with this job anymore.  There is no doubt MQ is looking looking.  I got an email from them to work for them which of course I wont. 

Dont know why they hire 2nd and 3rd... wasnt that the - point in offshoring?

I though the whole "purpose" for offshoring was that they would cover the 2nd and 3rd shifts due to the time changes. I guess that was a joke also.

We all know the point of offshoring. What I find interesting is - PAMT

these candidates keep talking about unemployment and what have you and why wouldnt there be unemployment with all the companies sending work overseas. Rather a ridiculous subject. One of the big big company CEOs that send work overseas said jobs wont be coming back here with the low wages and those people actually sleeping where they work to be instantly available. Nope, wont be coming back. I guess it is good the baby boomers are getting ready to retire so there is more work for other people but then of course boomers have lost so much money they will probably still be working to some degree forever and ever.

Why Do These Companies Keep Hiring
Nov 08, 2013

I started a job part time last week, doing 2 days a week and have been out of work 2 of the 4 days I was supposed to work and was told to flex my hours.  I have a full time job and it is very difficult to flex for a part time job.  Why do these companies hire if there is actually no work?  I am already at a point where I want to leave.  I work because I have to, not because I have idle time on my hand to flex in order to get work and end up putting in time on 3-4 different da ...

Mar 19, 2013

Are there any good MT companies out there any longer that actually pay something that we can live on?  I know all about the "if you want to earn more, work more" deal but honestly, the pay has depreciated so much you would have to work 12 hours a day to make what I used to make in 8.  Didn't go to school and get into this field of work 15 years ago to make less than a waitress.  Any good companies out there? ...

Same Old Tired Transcription Companies Hiring All The Time
Sep 20, 2012

I am currently working at a company and with the way things are going with all of these companies, I am just afraid of layoffs.  It's sad to see all of the same transcription companies on the job boards hiring, and it seems by reading the boards none of them are worth working for.  I sure wish when I decided to go into transcription I could have looked into the future a few years.  I have been doing transcription now for 6 years.  I am thankful I do have my job still and ...

HUH MQ Hiring?
Sep 05, 2011

WTF is going on?  I am no longer an MT, but I still care about a lot of people who are still TRYING to work at the Q.  Just popped over to mtjobs and the Q has an ad on there for MTs wishing to embark on a world class....etc.  It's unacceptable that the Q doesn't let anyone know what is going on at the MT level, starve out all the experienced ones they "acquired," then offshore to Inida and hire a bunch of newbies.  I don't have any idea what sort of game they ...


TTS Hiring Again?
Mar 06, 2012

I want to work a part time job to supplement my other part time job at Nuance because sometimes there is no work.  I see an opening at TTS but when reviewing posts about TTS it sounds like a bad place to work with incompetent recruiters and managers.  It seems 95% of the posts are bad regarding TTS.  I am leery about working for a company that keeps advertising for help, especially if it isn't a large one like Nuance or MQ.  Is this a good company where there is work or ...

Anyone REALLY Hiring
Oct 05, 2012

Are any decent MTSOs actually hiring ICs... and I mean IC in the traditional meaning of the word; not locked into some arbitrary schedule design, but a daily line committment.  I have 10 years experience.  The company I was working for no longer has the account I was working on.  They have given me some pick up work here and there, but I can't live on $100 a week or less from odd jobs while they find something new and steady. They estimate it may take 60-90 days for that to h ...

TTS Hiring
Jan 31, 2013

How is TTS (Transcription, Technology & Support) to work for as far as enough work, QA, and overall being a reputable company?  I am guessing you do not make much money since it is all voice recognition.  Just curious, because it seems like they have an ad every day, sometimes twice a day, looking for 2nd shift MTs. ...

some part-timers anyway, why not offer weekends to part-timers and offer some Mon-Fri shifts for the experienced full-time MTs you're trying to get.....  That's about the only way you're going to get many experienced quality MTs.  And there are always plenty of MTs looking for part-time weekend work as a 2nd job.  ...

How Do MTSOs Get Away With Hiring Only ICs.
Dec 17, 2009

Is this just a scam so that employers don't have to pay benefits and employer taxes?  I bet if there was an audit, most ICs and MTSOs would be in trouble for using that classification improperly, especially for the full-time positions. I even applied for a full-time secretarial job in a small law office recently, and was told I would be hired as a contractor with no benefits.  I was stunned and declined.  I need to check with the labor department to see if some of my concern ...
