Are there any companies still out there that hire for straight typing? - Fed Up


Posted: Apr 21, 2014

I've given VR a fair shot for close to a year now, but I still type much faster than I edit, so I've lost quite a bit of money since my account went to VR last year.  I know that VR is almost everywhere these days, but does anyone know of any decent companies that still have straight typing and are actually hiring right now?  I'm looking for acute care and I really don't care if it's IC or employee status at this point.  I just want to do regular transcription again.

Straight Typing - Yes

SoftScript does. I flunked their written test though. I've been out of school for over 15 years and I need a refresher course I guess.

yes but clinic at 7 cpl IC - still just me

Patient First is only straight typing. Hard to get in but worth it if you can.

How do you apply there? - Fed Up

I was on their web site and I don't see anywhere to apply. I don't even see any MT openings. I would like to get them my resume even if they're not hiring, but I don't even see an email address to send it to.

AFter getting into PF website, click on job posting on the left. Then search open positions. Transcriptionist job is posted under administration jobs. There is an ongoing post from 01/28/14 as we are continually hiring more and more. Click on the medical transcription posting and it will list all the qualifications. Scroll all the way to the bottom and click on apply now. It will take you to where you fill out the application and take the test. No kidding when I say the test is hard but I don't consider myself to be a "great" transcriptionist and I got in. So good luck. Let me know if you have any problem getting through the process.

Unable to read and follow written instructions, possibly not computer literate? Do let us know how your exciting interview goes. Maybe mention your chosen moniker as a window into your attitude!
Sad that you chose meanness instead of compassion as a response. sm - JMO

I consider myself computer literate, some of my friends even call me geeky because I love tech stuff so much, yet I am human and I know I can overlook things. I am glad the other person chose to help rather than demean the poster. MT is in such a sad state, we really should band together, not tear each other down.
compassion? - are you
[ In Reply To ..]
suffering? What is it you need compassion for? As for being computer literate, it was your defender who suggested you might not be. I was merely commenting on the sequence of events. You asked for a company who did straight typing. You received a response. Came back then and wanted to know how to apply. Having visited the website several times, I knew the instructions were clearly posted. I asked why someone would post such a detailed response when the instructions were quite clear. When defender stated you might not be computer literate, I responded sarcastically from the viewpoint of an employer. Hope you get a job you like. Peace.
I am not the OP. While you harp on everyone else's sm - JMO

inadequacies, perhaps you should brush up on your reading and comprehension skills. I merely pointed out that you could have responded with compassion rather than meanness to the poster, but apparently that is not within your skill set. You are type of person that makes me thankful I work remotely and do not have to work in an office with people such as yourself.

Why wouldn't I? Everyone needs a little help once in awhile and I was happy to help her so it was no big deal. Not everyone is computer smart.

Straight typing at Nuance? - Rose

I haven't heard anyone before say that they do straight typing for Nuance - there can't be very many who do since Nuance invented Dragon and needs to use it as much as they possibly can.

I work on a straight transcription account at Nuance and love it! My friend recently applied and she is also interested in straight transcription. She was told that there are several accounts still using straight transcription and that there were several openings.

Why Suddenly Less ASR, More Straight Typing?

Hmm, let's see.  We get a letter from MQ extolling our virtues as MTs, more and more info about nationalizing the EMR with Verizon, etc. and I notice I'm not the only one getting less ASR, more direct typing.  Could be a coincidence, but could be MQ is gathering statistics on us, how the voice recognition program of MQ compares with our production as MTs versus straight typing on our own.  Could MQ be using us as guinea pigs right now to pad their statistics to prove the ...

Re Straight Typing Versus VR.
Mar 08, 2012

I have a pretty good and accurate typing speed, which has made me pretty good money in the past.  Then along comes VR.  I have had somewhat success with it, if the right dictation is placed on it.  The problem comes in when a company tries to put anything and everything on VR that does not belong there.  It defeats the purpose of using it in the first place. I am told that the computer calculates the accuracy of a report.  If it is 80% or more, it goes on VR.  ...

I could get the kids off to school, work for a couple of hours, go shopping, work for a couple of hours, just so I made production requirements and everything was great!
