Unusal because the account that I had been hired on was swamped. However, they pay training pay for 90-120 days, tell you they are paying you line rate and don't. If you want to live on the street, great place to work. PS - email me if you wish.
I only worked there for a couple of months but - Former focus

the first 3 Saturdays I worked didn't have any work at all. It sucked.
It depends on your account to a great deal. Find out if you're on a "follow the sun" account. It could be that as it gets dark on this side of the world the work is going over to the other side of the world. The account I was on was like that.

I work at Focus, and I run out of work sometimes, but most of the time I have work. Every once in a while I will have a day where there is just hardly any work. But like say today, I worked over 6 hours and I just got a no jobs available when I went to download a job. I am about to recheck cause usually if you wait a few minutes some will pop in. But as far as having no work consistently no that hasn't been my experience.

Anyone Know Anything About Focus Infomatics? May 04, 2010I received an e-mail today from a recruiter at Focus Infomatics.

Focus Infomatics - Anything About Their Platform? Dec 07, 2009I looked through the archives but couldn't find anything about their platform. I did speak with their recruiter and YOU HAVE to have a 32-bit operating system, XP or Vista, and Windows 7 is not compatible. I'm pretty sure that when I looked at these guys about a year ago now, they set you their computer like many of the national companies do. Also, does it seem like more employers are looking for MTs. I haven't been on this site for a while but I think it was in Octobe ...

Is Focus Infomatics Really US-based Now? Jan 29, 2010A former manager of mine from "brand X MTSO" (in reality, a very dear friend now) got thrown under the bus. She knows how "QBay" does. She is considering an MT or QA job for Focus Infomatics. Focus claims to not offshore, and has offered my friend 8 cpl. That sounds terribly lame wage wise for all that experience.
When I couldn't drink the MQ Kool-Aid anymore, I was making a whopping 9 cpl. Of course, try doing the math on that formula come payday.

Will I Get Hired? Sep 06, 2010I have a question for all MedQuist MTs . . .
I called them and was told that I qualified and passed MedQuist's test. That was about a week ago. I was told that I am still being "considered" and "reviewed." One recruiter told me that it would just be a matter of time before they could get through all of the paperwork. Another recruiter simply told me my file was still being "reviewed." What does this mean? Does MedQuist always offer jobs to those that pass their testing? Or is it possible t ...

I have applied everywhere, outside the house and inside. I have attended resume counseling at the career center, nobody is interested in helping me pay for any schooling, they change the s ...

They off-shore EVERYTHING left over as soon as possible, so being out of work is a condition you should expect as long as you continue to work for the very people the hospital just sold you to.
