Is Chronicle Transcripts worth it? - sm

Posted: Nov 28, 2011

I have been invited to test for them, but I wonder what kind of company they are. I have IE9 and they want an older version of IE for the test (yes, the dreaded MTTest), but I am just wanting to make sure if I test and get hired, it will all be worth it in the end. Are there any current CTI MTs here? I would appreciate any info!

Run fast. I worked there for about 8 months. - The platform was God awful and

they seemed very unorganized. I was originally told it was a mixture of traditional typing and ASR. The trainer just laughed and said that was a misprint as it was all ASR. I did have an occasional non ASR job, but then the voice was so miserable it wasn't worth it. They did pay on time so that was a positive I guess but that was really the only positive experience I found with them I left about two months ago for a better opportunity.

Thanks for the heads up. Won't waste my time them - :)

decent living wage at this company? I've gone through the archives and saw comments on the platform but some posts said those issues were resolved. It is possilbe to earn a good paycheck without working 18 hours a day? Do they really have nonstop work consistently or is this just a backlog situation? I'm on the fence and afraid to jump from one pot to another. Thanks for any insight. ...

It's been a couple weeks and I thought I'd provide an update for those wondering if this is for them. The pros as I see them are that they are very flexible, they pay fast and via Paypal, and they respect their staff. However, the work itself is a crap shoot. They have a nice feature that let's you listen to a half hour of it before you commit, but if you judge wrong, you are working for minimum wage, possibly less if you are overly contientious or just plain s ...

So I've been working for these 2 companies for about the past 2 weeks and I'm just wondering if anyone else who works for either one of them can give me any tips. I really like the work and the flexibility, but I am sooo S-L-O-W. I just did a file for Fox and it took me 3 hours to do 25 minutes of the file (very clear audio). For Net Transcripts it seems to take me about 4 to 5 hours to do 30 minutes of dictation. For me I find Net Transcripts a bit more difficu ...

Hi All! I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with New England Transcripts based in the Boston area. (This is not New England Transcription - I sent my resume to them too and really hope to get in because I hear they're good to work for). They do interviews and focus groups and stuff like that. Would love to stay in medical, but it's getting kinda scary. Anyway, I sent my resume and they immediately replied (not always a good sign). I foun ...
