I'd like to apply because I don't like where I'm at, but would appreciate any info first. Thanks !

Supposed to be a great place to work, but you will never get called unless there someone leaves. I found the recruiter rather rude with her emails, and a bit condescending, and withdrew my application.
Thank you ! I think I'll pass on this company. - mt

I had the opposite experience and got hired after several months of being on a waiting list. The pay is better than most, but their standards are high. I'm very happy here and glad I waited. The recruiter is also the QA Manager and is very fair. But she's a no nonsense kind of person, which may be why you found her condescending. She's definitely not warm and fuzzy but does her job well, and I really like the company a lot. She is a former MT, as are all the managers. That makes a difference in how they operate. But I don't think they're hiring right now.
Hmmm.....well, maybe I'll go ahead and apply and be on the waiting list. - mt

I sure don't like where I am now and I hate my shift. I'm a hard-working, loyal employee when I'm treated fair.
I too have a positive experience - Optiscript MT

I too have had a positive experience. Actually I think it is a good thing that they dont hire "unless someone leaves." They are extremely careful about not overhiring and allowing the existing MTs to get the work done. It is rare to run out of work. The pay is fair and the platform is pretty easy. The speech engine is one of the best I have worked on (3 so far).
I went on the waiting list and just stayed with my old company until they called me. It was worth it.
Hmmm....pay fair? - interested

I didn't think 8.5 cpl was very good compensation considering the experience they wanted....passed on their offer.
I think it is decent - Optiscript MT

I think the lines add up pretty quickly, so I think I make a decent hourly rate. Also, the ratio for VR is much better than other places, and about 80% ends up being VR so that's important.
I do OK there--better than most companies - Opti MT

Because Opti-Script has benefits (employee status only) and there's the opportunity to increase the line rate with less need for QA help, I do fairly well here. Plus they don't jerk you around with running out of work all the time. I think they're an exceptional company and miles ahead of most MTSOs out there. Of course we all want to get paid 10 cpl but those opportunities don't exist any more. And the speech is really pretty good. I'm happy.
Speech engine. LOL It took twice a long for a VR report as straight typing! Nm - No thanks
Can someone please email me priviately about Opti-Script. I would like current info on what this company is like to work for and what line rate they start at. Also, do they have any type of incentive pay?
Thanks so much! ...
Nice surprise to receive my Christmas gift. Although I know times are tough for everyone in our industry right now, it's great to work to work for a company that treats MTs well. It's scary when I read postings on this board, but it makes me very thankful for the best company I've ever worked for. They're not perfect but they try really hard. Merry Christmas to all of you, and I hope 2011 is a good year for all of us who work v ...
Could someone who currently works for Opti-Script tell me how much their insurance is for a family plan? You can email me if you do not want to post here. Also is their platform MT friendly? Good accounts? Steady work? Thanks in advance for any information. ...
Does anyone have information on Opti-Script? Are they hiring? There's not too much info in the archives. Any info (good or bad) would be appreciated. TIA ...
What is the skinny on this co? I see it has already 459 views and the West Coast hasnt even had brkfast. herds of MTs stampeding from one company's ad to another's. Thanks.
...
Can anyone give me any feedback on Opti-Script? I'm thinking of applying with them. From what I've read, they sound like a pretty decent company to work for. I'm hoping to hear from some MTs who currently work there or who have worked there in the past. Any info on this company, good and bad, would be great. ...
I tested with Opti-Script less than 2 months ago and I was told that I passed, but that there was a waiting list to be hired and that they would contact me as soon as they had openings. I just noticed that they posted an ad on Monday for acute care MTs "needed immediately", but I have not heard from them. I also have a friend who tested with them even before I did and is also on the waiting list, and she hasn't been contacted either. Why wouldn't they first contact th ...
Is there anyone out there that has recently been hired for 3rd shift at Opti-Script? I'm thinking about applying. It is a level 5 account, and was wondering how hard this account really is. I don't want to jump out of the frying pan into the fire. The platform is Exeditor, and I really don't know anything about it. Is it productive? Does anyone have any info at all about this account or platform? TIA ...
I have agreed to take a position with Opti-Script. Can anyone provide any recent information about this company good or bad on what to expect with the Dictaphone Ex-Text platform? Thanks. ...
I was just wondering if anyone has any information on this company. I have seen a few advertisements and their pay/benefits sound almost too good to be true. Any information anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated. ...
How long did it take after testing to find out whether or not you passed their test? I know I'll be put on the waiting list if I, indeed, passed it. Just curious how many days/weeks after taking it before I'll be informed of the results... ...
I have read so many good things about Opti-Script - tested recently but no openings right now. Low turnover rate - which is GOOD! So I'll wait.....So many slave shop companies out there - I don't want to go that route. Talked with some companies and tested with some. BTW, one gripe I have - testing for a company - and knowing you did well, but absolutely NO REPLY!!! Any reputable MT company needs to know this - When an MT applies and tests, THEY ARE WAITING ON A RESPONSE AB ...
I tested for Opti-Script 4-5 days ago and have never heard anything. Do they let you know if you did not pass the test? Their website said someone would notify within 24 hours. ...
long it takes to get hired when you're on the wait list. Anyone know of anybody to get hired off this list? Just curious. I need a job desperately!! Applied at Accentus too and tested for them, never heard anything. This waiting is a killer. ...
Holy cow.. just for kicks I googled myself and found my resume that I had sent to Opti-script several months back posted on the internet. I'm shocked. Talk about an invasion of privacy. Do I want my name, address and phone number and personal work information splashed across the internet for the world to see.. NO.... How do I get it removed? ...
