Durham Rehab - applied & received any feedback? - RLee

Posted: May 21, 2010

Has anyone that applied to them received any feedback?? I know there was a lot of talk on this board about them being a scam. They were very prompt in sending me a test dictation after I submitted my resume, but for some reason not so prompt in getting back with any results. The test was easy, as it was only one dictation fiile approximately 2 minutes long. Just curious if anyone has heard anything back - if not - then it probably was a scam, which has not affected me yet thankfully.

Durham Rehab - tired, tired metatarsal

I applied to them and have heard nothing, nada, zip, zilch.

Not a peep at all. - Hopefully not dupped.

I got someone tracking this down for me, and hopefully will be able find out who this "person" really is. As soon as I know something, I will let you guys know. For some reason, when I did that back lookup on that number with a "Dr. Cathy" in Daytona Beach, it clicked something in the back of my head from about 9 or 10 years ago, and it was a similar situation with someone posting a job where people sent in their resumes, no one heard back, and it turned out to be a bogus job offer from someone out of Daytona Beach. I wonder how in the world they got a hold of that test file. It sounded just like a test file from that horrible website with overseas tech support that some of these MTSOs love to use for testing.

I've seen them advertise, was it this board? - Sunshine State MT

I live in the area of Daytona Beach and I just did some searching in our phone books, etc., and there is no Durham Rehab around here.

I looked up the email listed, not the facility. - Hopefully not dupped.

This is what I got:
Name: Cathym Location: Daytona Beach, Florida, US Company: Dr

The "job" posting was for Durham Rehab in NC and not Daytona Beach, so it's pretty obvious we got our personal information scammed. I don't put DOB or SS# on my resume, but there goes my name, address, email, phone #s,PC and software info. And yes, it is very easy to obtain MP3 files from any site and use them for whatever purpose, either by downloading the file directly onto your PC or using one of those downloading browser add-ons. Unfortunately, it seems this time, whoever this "person" is, used it to scam our personal info.

I do not include - RLee

my SS3, DOB, or even phone number on my resume. I do, however, include my email address for contact purposes.

Test file - RLee

Maybe they acquired the test file from themselves - from a test they took from some company in the past, as once downloaded it is in your documents or at least my was. It would have been very easy for me to pass it on via an attachment just as they did. I would suspect that Durham Rehabilitation Institute is in Durham, NC - not Florida. When I googled Durham Rehabilitation Institure it states Durham Rehabilitation Institute (DRI) provides award-winning comprehensive care in a compassionate yet high tech environment. DRI is located on the seventh floor of Durham Regional Hospital, part of Duke University Health System. Either way it is probably a scam, as the job ad was deleted the same day.

I cannot reply to everyone who sent me a resume, but wanted you all to know that I was unable to keep the account I was subcontracting with, Patient First, so I will not be hiring any MTs to work on this with me. It was very unprofitable for all of us to spend so much time working on the difficult doctors and keep up with all the account specifics and changing doctors without specific assignment and still be productive, so we called it quits. Thank you to everyone who took the ...

I applied to TTS last week. Got an email within minutes of submitting the application and objective test asking when was a good time to call me. Got a phone call before I even replied to the email. Had a job offer on the spot. WTF. Felt very rushed into making a decision...no surprise given the horrible pay rate (0.0641 text and 0.0326 speech). But I accepted the job for the sole reason that I need a job that will give me benefits for me and the family. I don't even care so much about the c ...
