Anyone else recently start working for - sm

Accentus?  WOW!!  That is all I can say.  The platform is so horribly slow and bulky it is pathetic.  The sound files are lousy on top of the foot pedal (or even hitting F8) not "working" when you hit it.  This was the biggest waste of time!!!

Not to mention that stinking marker that won't - sm

"let go" of words after you are done putting it. I will let them deal with it.

platform - just me

You are going to find that most platforms are like this. The only one I have found that doesn't have its little quirks here and there is DQS, and you have to work for MQ or the like to work on it. Personally, I would deal with it and learn how to work around it, as the pros for working for Accentus far outweight the cons!

platform - anon

Since Accentus has bought up several companies, there may be different platforms. I am on Apex. It drives me nuts sometimes too, and has the foot pedal issues. However, I am still earning more than several other companies I worked for. For VR, I have done as the trainer suggested and am using mostly keyboard commands and so do not have the issues with the foot pedal. It took some getting used to, but my production has jumped since making myself make the transition. Good luck to you with whatever you decide!

NJA Recently?
Apr 11, 2014

Just wondering how the NJA problem is since 60 of us have moved on.  We've had 2 new ILP accounts to QA (which are horrible) and 1 group hospitals that have come back from ILP land, but only recieved a small handful of MTs to compensate.  My BOB has been swamped for the past week with late jobs every night.  My TSM says that her manager said that there isn't anybody who can help out.  I was just wondering if he/she is just too lazy to actually look.  I know the ...

This is a new thing for me.  I've been in the industry over 20 years, have done every specialty plus QA. In the past when I've looked for a job I've found one in only one day.  What's up? ...

I have recently started on ChartNet.  I read reviews, which are mostly positive, and my question is why?

Recently Took The Test For Accentus
