Is the workflow any better at Synernet ? should I bother applying ?

I just received a call from the CEO stating that they were "making tough decisions" and I was to finish what I was doing and then I was laid off. They immediately cut off my access to email, the SGS site with the timesheet and Spark. ...

I've just finished MT school and am starting to apply for jobs while I wait for my final grade. There is nothing in town, I live in a small town and the hospital fired all their MTs, so I need to work from home. But every ad I see says no newbies AND many say school doesn't count for experience. Of course, my school promised that most places did count our training as 2 years' experience, but I have this sinking suspicion they lied. Do I go ahead and apply for these jobs, or ...

I see they adverstise quite often and I don't mind working 2nd or 3rd shift. I just had a few questions first before I apply. 1. How often do they give raises? 2. How good is the insurance, meaning, is there a very high deductible? 3. Do they leave you alone as long as you are doing your job? 4. Is there room for advancement? 5. Do they contribute to retirement? Thank you all in advance! ...

I have a couple questions before I apply. Do they pay extra for working holidays and are the holidays company paid? Are there a lot of ESL? Thank you and Merry Christmas ...

I am so tired of trying to find that "perfect" fit for a company to work for. Good companies are so few and far between and I just want to finally find a fair place. It seems like the only companies left are MModal and Nuance and I wouldn't work for them for anything. So, before I apply for Synernet, how are things there? Thanks :) ...

For anyone working at TransPortal currently....how is the workflow? How often do you run out other than the typical times of around holidays? Thank you! ...

Anyone know if we are still supposed to be calling the workflow team when there is no work available? It's not listed under the work availability policy as something you need to do, and then when you call, you are put on hold and it states the hours are "4 p.m. to 9:30 a.m." Is this Eastern Time, Central Time, Pacific Time??? Frustrating to say the least. ...

If we think things are bad NOW with NJA and work flow ... just wait. Each Workflow Manager has only been given ONE "POD" so far but as of this week, they will each be given a SECOND POD to oversee, each POD having at least 200 employees. The Workflow Manager that I've been assigned to told me on the phone this morning that her mind-bending work load is about to DOUBLE and that she will be overseeing 400 employees. She said she hopes she didn't make a big mistake by ta ...

giving a 2-week notice? I am so sick of sitting and waiting for work that doesn't come. I have begged and begged for more work (and there are several late/heavy accounts just sitting there) and still get NOTHING. Would you even bother giving 2 weeks' notice or would you just quit signing in? ...

Seriously. What did they lay off like 12 people? What good did that do, really? It didn't do any good and hurt the ones laid off. ...

that our supervisors never question how someone with 10-15 plus years experience could leave such nonsensical and totally stupid words and phrases in our dictation? Of course, this is being dinged by offshore. And, I swear I remember changing or deleting a lot of these, but there they are back again after sending. ...

with that german transcriptionist job on the board. I tried to bluff my way through the test and did not fool them. Next, I will give the french test a shot. ...

In December I was contacted by MedGarde's recruiter to set up a telephone interview. This was after I had submitted my resume and tested for them. The interview was 45 minutes and consisted of multiple questions regarding my education, experience, etc. Then there was a verbal test on computer knowledge. Then there was a verbal test on medical terminology knowledge. Afterwards, she thanked me and told me she would be in contact with me by early next week. ...

In FIESA I was corrected for, but didn't lose points for, leaving out the word "of" after the word "off," as I learned in transcription school that it is not correct to say "off of," you just need to say "off." Should I tell my TSM to mention this to the QA person or does no one care since I didn't lose any points? I have also seen blanks in reports that this QA person added to my reports for words that I know I typed correctly because I am very familiar with my accounts and have ...

I just wonder, as an MT we are REQUIRED to respond IMMEDIATELY to an email that they say "respond immediately" to. But if in that email it states any questions, please let us know and you email them back with questions and now 2 weeks later, you still have not received an answer back. Why is it that we are required to immediately respond and have emailed the same question now a few times and yet no answer from their side. I wonder how this makes their side of the company run so ...

when all they have to do is read this board to find out why MTs are leaving? Not that I expect any logical actions from them but since they are paying an outside company to do the interviews, this is an added expense. ...

They would just make the formats for all work types the SAME across the board. It's NOT the changing of dictators/facilities that is so difficult...it's the having to check 1 thousand different sets of account rules!!! UGH! ...

Really getting fed up....virtually NO work since Labor Day....looking elsewhere and don't want to burn any bridges, but what's the point of giving M*Modal 2 weeks notice if there's no work to type and I could actually be making money at a new job in that 2 weeks' time?! ...

Is Transtech one of those companies that doesn't bother to contact you if you fail their test? Or do they eventually let you know one way or the other? It has been a couple of weeks since I have tested and haven't heard a peep. ...

How long do you have to wait before reapplying for a job at medquist? ...

Okay, this is somewhat of a strange situation. I have been looking for a job in the field that I was in prior to becoming an MT 11 years ago, which would be a full-time position with benefits. Currently I am IC. I had lost my previous job due to downsizing and the office/company that I worked for basically closed it's Wisconsin branch except for a handful of employees. I just found out that one of the employees at this small Wisconsin branch of the company that I use ...

...and taking a transcription test, is it wise to type verbatim even if there are errors or try to clean it up? I'm an older MT and haven't applied in a while. I'd just like to know an opinion out there. I'd hate to not get a job because I "cleaned" something up when I should not have done so. TIA. ...

How long should I wait after applying for a job before following up? And what's the best way to followup? Also, I'd like to ask what caused them to overlook my resume if that's the case. BUT would that just make me even more of a pest and make them Black-ball me?! I HATE WAITING!!! Can you tell? :) ...

This question applies to anyone... Do you apply for an MT position even if they state they're not hiring newbies? If so, has it made a difference or is it a waste of time? Thanks! ...

I am considering applying with Q.E.D. Transcription. They seem to be a stable company to work for from what I've read. Does anyone have any experience with them or input? Any info appreciated! Thanks. ...

I am considering applying to Diskriter. I just received an email with some questions. I am wanting to know any info on the criminal background check. I had some hot checks about 7-10 years ago and paid them off then, but am worried about this background check and also my credit is not that great. Could someone please clue me in? Also, do you need to take a picture of your desk/work area to work there? I have a alcove in my bedroom where I do my work since I live in an apartment. I ...

I'm curious about the MME certification/position. Can anyone please give some honest insight as to what the difference in pay is, what the testing for the position is like, etc. I would like to apply for the position in 2 months and would like to know what to expect. Also, once you're an MME does that open up advancement opportunities into QA, CCM, etc.? Any information would be appreciated. ...

I need to write this for my own sake. I can no longer apply or test for these company positions. I am being rejected in one way or another by all of them. I have done this for going on 30 years. I can't take it anymore. It is so very very painful to deal with this. I think in my heart I have given up finding any MT position or any job at this point in my life. All I do is get angry, cry, throw things. Very very depressed and I get from friends is either God has something special for ...

Out of 4 slots how many of those do you think will be given to MTs? I wish whoever is applying good luck. ...

Does anyone ever simply e-mail a resume to a company rather than completing the long, drawn out application they want filled out when you click the link to apply? I have 30 years of experience and do not want to spend time filling in information about every job I have ever had and why I left, where I went to school, emergency contacts, etc on their application, only to never hear from the company and would prefer just to e-mail a resume with a cover letter. Does anyone ever do this? ...

Is the workflow any better at Synernet ? should I bother applying ? - nm

nope - nm

Don't think Synernet is hiring anyways - as there have been staff reductions

Don't waste your time. The work load has NOT improved - tired of being broke

i quit very recently, tired of being broke - nm

I will be too, if I can find somewhere that doesn't run out all the time - Skimpy Christmas

Same with me - Time to go

I turned in notice too. Guess if several of us leave, will leave more work for - the rest -- hate to go but I gotta eat !

Doubtful -- they'll probably just turn on their overhiring machine again. nm - Sad
