ALPHA Transcription - any experience with this company? - NC MT

Posted: Jan 04, 2011

Has anyone had any experience with this company? I sent my resume for a job posting and was contacted right away. The fishy thing (to me anyway) was that they didn't even want me to TEST for the position! What is that about? EVERY MT position I have EVER been a candidate for has wanted me to test. But nope, I had a phone interview and the next thing I know I am being offered a position. RED FLAG?

Not at all - dmz

The last 2-3 positions I had did not require testing. Your resume should say it all, as well as your conversation with the company. I personally think it is nice not to have to test. Your work should speak for itself. Good luck.

absolutely agree - best job i ever had required no test! - bantests!

when I hit the search button, it just takes me to a blank screen. Not sure if it is a problem with the web site or my internet. Anyway, I was thinking I read some time ago that they did not pay for spaces or headers or footers and people were quite upset, but I might have them confused with another company. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks. ...

I received a job interview for an IC position with a company called National Medical Transcription with headquarters in New York. Has anybody worked with this company? My main concern was that the company does not offer direct deposit but rather issues a check via mail. Next concern is a "transparent" means of tallying up productivity for 65 character lines and spaces included. I would appreciate any feedback from present or past contractors. Thank you. ...
