They are bad about sending you a test, then - never getting back in touch

I hear their pay is low, they are mostly VR, and you'll be lucky if you ever hear from them again. The holdup may be in their HR Dept. Can't say for sure. I was one of the ones that they never contacted. Ho hum.

A friend of mine applied with them and within 24 hours they were sent the sign-on instructions to take the test. They told me the test was a snap and they know for a fact they aced it. Well, they were told a week later that "you lack the skill set we need and you didn't pass the test. And we can't tell you why you didn't pass the test"

She's got over 15 years doing hospital transcription and is certified with AAMT. So, please explain to me how she lacks the skill set and flunk the exam?

Their HR is very disorganized and unprofessional. - sm

They have a couple of different people who will both contact you & tell you completely different things.

Let's try infusing some facts into the conversation from someone who actually works there.

Yes, they were slow to get back to people because they were inundated with resumes/tests. They have an extensive interview process. They need MTs so they aren't going to send away a qualified MT.

The work pools are good. The staff is great. QA is great. You do have a schedule but they realize that you also have a life and are willing to work with you if you need time off, etc.

Benefits include BCBS, vision, dental, PTO. The PTO is not the best in the business but it's better than none.

Pay is average for VR, average to above average for straight typing.

If you have any other questions, feel free to email me.

Dont know when you got hired but I also had a bad experience with HR there! - black label

Applied over a year ago. Did test. HR called, said I did amazing on test, talked to woman for over an hour, said she would send out schedule form and computer spec. sheet... Waited a day or so, sent e-mail back stating that I never got it... Waited for response, sent another e-mail couple days later, no response...

Then a month passes by and the same HR woman calls back and says ''you get the prize for being persistent,'' said she missed the multiple e-mails, and said she would resend.

Got them, filled out schedule, bought new computer... ZIPPO..... Never heard from them again.

What a joke!

I spoke with the recruiter initially,
then the owner and HR.

I can only say what my own experience is (and no I'm not management but isn't the point to make money??) and my experience has been a very positive one.

This sort of smacks of management IMHO - Maybe, maybe not

How about that Ford company making a $1 billion profit? Way to go, capitalism.

I tested with both and know I did well (lots of experience with this stuff) but have heard nothing back from Probity and got a letter of interest from Encompass, which I responded to, then NADA.

I noticed the only real problem I've seen regarding Encompass in the archives is their inability to get back to people in a timely way and I am seeing that in action. Anybody? ...

Something new that's being instituted since our recent acquisition by Nuance, so maybe Focus is using it already? Looks like a way to get even pickier about QA, in my opinion, which our incentives are based upon. I've been really happy about the way Encompass has done QA up until this time. While the requirement is really high (99% minimum, 99.5% for incentive bonus), the way they add all the lines together first and then average out from there is totally logical, un ...
