Hearing back - Maddie

Posted: Apr 14, 2011

Did anyone hear back after sending their resume to Transform for the positions they have available? I hate this waiting and waiting...it makes me nervous.

Sometimes it takes a while to hear back from any company - sm

I learned this about a year ago. Applying to one company isn't enough if you're in a situation where you really need a job. This time when I started searching for a new job again, I swear I must've emailed 80 to 100 resumes over the course of a couple days. I didn't hear back from any the first couple of weeks but now it's been almost a month and starting to get responses. Good luck to you and to us both.

Thanks for your reply. I know what you mean. I have been applying to so many places, I feel like I'm hitting my head against a brick wall. I have 10-1/2 years of medical transcription experience and about 20 years of legal transcription experience, but still having a very difficult time to get a job. Good luck to you!!!!

I applied with them back in March - TransformMT

I took the test late Friday night and got an e-mail from them Monday morning. Don't know if they are always that quick or not, but that was just how it worked out for me. Good luck to you, I hope you hear back soon. I know waiting really sucks.

Wow. They are hiring??? I work there and NO work - Starving MT

Can't be the same company I work for, based out of Montana or Nevada I think? I have a few friends who work there too and everyone is fighting over work. They did go to VR on a lot of accounts recently and I think they lost a lot of MTs. Platform is too hard to make any money on.

Maybe the same - TransformMT

It might be the same company because the account I work on is in Montana. I am doing editing and we use the MModal platform. Honestly I don't find the platform to be the problem. The dictators are. Anyway, there is PLENTY of work on my account. Guess I should be thankful. Hope yours picks up soon.

I have applied to 20 different companies for jobs and not one single company has replied. I have over 20 years of experience. Is it just me or is the medical transcription field just flooded right now with people submitting resumes because nobody wants to do voice activation? In the past, I would always hear back right away. ...

I invested in a "good" or what I thought was a "good" pair of headphones a while back. However, lately I have been struggling with dictators. It seems like more and more of them have mumbling, stumbling speech making it EXTREMELY difficult to interpret. In a "perfect" world, our job would be soooo much easier and not having to struggle with them mumbling, whispering, holding conversations (or at least attempting to) while dictating, and on and on. Oh well, at least I have a j ...

Had eye exam today--getting new glasses. Can't wait to see better. I also had a brief hearing test as well. Got set up for appointment with audiologist. It seems my left ear does not hear low tones and the right does not hear high tones. It is no wonder to me as all the years I have worn headphones, ear buds, or loud music. Keeping my fingers crossed. ...

...the business model works well for them. They made their money off you before you even signed on. They made it 1) when they landed your previous facility's contract and 2) when you were gullible enough to sign on to help voice wreck unemploy yourselves. If they wanted you to stick around you'd be so overworked you could not stand it. Nothing new about any of this stuff except this appears to be the latest set of Nuance casualties. In another month there will be another new set when t ...

Help - Have no sound on right side of my headset listening to a tape in my Lanier. Headset works in Express Scribe, though. If I switch out the headphones for another pair, can't hear on the right side there either on the Lanier. Lanier has been working fine up to this point. Any suggestions as to what the problem is and how to fix it? ...

I will be purchasing hearing aids soon and have two related questions. What type of headphones can I use, if at all, with: In-ear hearing aids, Behind-the-ear hearing aids. Would also be nice to know where I can get same at a decent price. At this time I purchase my transcription gear at Martel Electronics. Thanks, all, and keep that volume turned down (no my hearing didn't go that way; I am just getting older). ...

I'm sick of testing and testing and never hearing anything or hearing back we're sorry, you don't meet our needs. I have 15 years of frickin experience. My QA scores are always between 99% to 100%. I know the BOS. I do QA for crying out loud. I'm starting to think it's easier for MT's with little to no experience to get a job these days than it is for a seasoned MT who actually knows what they're doing. I think the whole reas ...

Anybody elsewhere experience that?

Anyone out there have any hearing loss? I have developed significant hearing loss. My ENT has encouraged me to keep transcribing, with the use of a boosted headset and I am trying. Telephone use is very difficult and almost non-existent. Boosters do not help. Also diagnosed recently with RA and having difficulty with my fingers, but not letting it get me down. I am on treatment that is working well. Just wondered if anyone else is having any of these issues and how they are dealing with them. Th ...

the MTs she interview over the phone state the only reason they are leaving there jobs in pursuit of a new one is because there is no work. She said that is not a valid reason and she would hesitate to hire me because I was yet another one to state that. ******* That is the truth!!! She said if the work should get low or slow, would I leave her? I was at a loss for words. I mean, I guess she was right, but what the heck else am I to say the next time. If ...
