MQ employment test - BFLA


Posted: Dec 14, 2011

Has anyone with experience taken the employment test (transcription part) and not passed with 98?  I cannot believe this....

You mean â€Â¦ you are TRYING to get hired? - LMAO

You mean there are people out there voluntarily taking the Medquist test for employment on their own free will and NOT having a gun held to their head? I wouldn't try to get hired at this company if my life depended on it. Consider it a huge blessing.

I did. They said I had a 97%. Doesnt sound possible. With the company I work for now my average is 99.9%

Whats up with Medquist?

You probably passed just fine - Shortage of qualified MTs excuse

[ In Reply To ..]
Medquist says that due to the shortage of qualified MTs, they have to send their work to India. By advertising that they are hiring, but not finding anyone who qualifies, they are justified in offshoring the work. You probably passed, but they didn't want you to.

Thanks everyone for your responses. I really can't see how I could not get 98%, which I probably did!

At-will Employment
Aug 16, 2011

If your employment with an MTSO is "at will," doesn't that apply to BOTH you and them? The legal meaning of "at-will employment" is as follows: "A common-law rule that an employment contract of indefinite duration can be terminated by either the employer or the employee at any time for any reason; also known as terminable at will." So, given this legal rule, why are we deemed ineligible for rehire when we leave an MTSO without what they perceive as fair notice? ...

Has anyone else answered ads for them.  You do a really EASY test. They offer to train you for free..  then send you emails... basically to schedule a job interview.  You text them.  They send you this agreement, which says that in order to work for them you need to plunk out $450 to buy their software.. This does not quite seem on the level to me.. I have been working in this industry going on 20 years.  I work in house right now..  but job situation is precariou ...

I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thx. ...

Employment Question
Nov 21, 2014

Fifteen years ago, I worked for a certain employer and was terminated after 4 months in a particular position. I recently applied to that same employer for the same job. While completing the application, one of the questions was if I had ever been an employee of theirs, and I chose no because it had been so long. Is this going to be a problem (application didn't ask for SSN)? If so, should I try to contact the HR department and explain that I need to reapply and change my answer? Or if it g ...
