Here's the response I got after emailing someone at TAA - Kiki


Posted: Mar 11, 2014

"MedQuist/M-Model was certified in March 2012. We did receive a list of workers whose positions were affected due to trade. Unfortunately, your name was not on the MedQuist/M-Model worker list as being trade affected. Unless we receive notification from MedQuist/M-Modal that you were let go due to your position being affected by tradeâ€Â¦.you are not eligible to apply for training benefits. If you feel your name should be on the listâ€Â¦please contact the HR department of MedQuist/M-Model to have them submit an updated worker list to EDD in CA. Once we receive the listâ€Â¦and your name is on itâ€Â¦you will be sent a TAA notification letter stating you are potentially eligible for TAA benefits. At that time, you will work with a local TAA specialist at the San Diego Job Center to coordinate your training benefits. However, you are not eligible to apply for TAA benefits until you receive a notification letter." Well so much for that. I had thought some of us here applied for and received TAA benefits or was I wrong? So your name has to be on a list that MM has to have submitted? Fat chance of THAT happening. I hesitated before when I was laid off last August to apply for this thinking it was too good to be true, and I guess I was right.

some were told that - and others were not

when I first went to my UE office, they also couldn't find me on a "list." That's because I had not been laid off. Then I called and spoke to someone at the state level and he sent me the forms to fill out. In the end I decided it wasn't worth messing with though. Too many hoops to jump through.

Can't Seem To Get A Response
Apr 01, 2010

I'm just curious if others are in the same boat as I am.  I have almost 10 years experience as an MT, both acute care and clinic, and I have been sending my resume to many of the job postings on this board.  I think I have received two replies out of probably 20 resumes sent.  Is this pretty much the way it is for others, or do I need to tweak my resume?  Thanks! ...

"You might want to consider re-wording your job posting and re-think your position as you can find yourself in serious trouble with the IRS regarding requiring an independent contractor to work a set schedule.  You are wanting an employee, not an independent contractor, if that contractor has to work a set schedule and 'has to work over.'  The IRS will come down pretty hard on you...especially if someone sends them a copy of your job posting.  So you understand ...

Has anyone been able to get a response from DIT?  Please let me know because I certainly have not.  This place is the worst.  What is really terrible is that continue to keep hiring new MTs and promise them that everything is now okay.  They are just a bunch of people not telling the truth. ...

Response To Resumes

Yeah for sure.  what goes does it do to send resumes to these jobs posted here, when you get NO response...  I realize they have more resumes than they can probably go through, but when they look at the top of your resume (where it should be) and see you have had over 25 years experience - you think they'd contact you first, yeah whatever.  Not sure, but know MT jobs are scarce!! ...

Mar 08, 2013

Sorry...you had asked me a question but I've been away for a couple days.  Yes, Home Health/Hospice is more flexible as far as scheduling.  For the most part, we set up our own schedules, call the patients ourselves with times we expect to be there, and then if by some chance we get done early we aren't required to hang around to get our 8 hours in. That being said, it's a brutal job.  I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who doesn't have some solid acute ca ...

Re: No Response To Job Applications, Resumes Sent:
Feb 24, 2010

I've sent out a few resumes over the past year in hopes of landing a different MT job than the one I have now.  Only ONE place (a hospital I would dearly love to work for!) even acknowledged my application.  The others?  NOTHING.  Even though they continued to run ads for the same job I had applied for.  I never even got to test for any of them. So.... fast forward a few months (or years).  Suppose one of these no-response companies kept my resume and out ...

The Ad Is True. The Response Is A Parody.
Aug 13, 2010

Anyone see the ad on this and another job board about needing an MT who speaks FRENCH? What the heck has our industry come to that MTSOs will suck up to any foreigner and do ANYTHING whether it's right or not just to make a fast buck. The medical record is supposed to be on the chart in English in this country for legal reasons.  I hope if anyone here speaks French they DON'T apply.  Let's keep to American values!  <<Parody over.>> Actually, I am d ...

company and my pay was cut 23% at one time. You say good management-this company has a rep for this kind of stuff.  Do you think it is good management when accounts run out of work daily because they are only overflow (almost all accounts with this company are overflow) and are overstaffed to stay in TAT-I had 5 accounts and still didn't have enough work?  Do you like pulling teeth to get work and/or answers because there is only 1 (ONE) person dishing out work who has the persona ...
