After searching the archives all of the information there is old and I would really appreciate some up-to-date information.

TIA

All I can tell you is that I'm training with them now, and I'm not impressed. I start back at it tomorrow. They pay 3 cpl but nothing to help you out while you're training, just your 3 cpl. SR. And so far what I've seen is a mess.

The recruiter is really great, though, as far as someone to get along with.

Pay is LOW, LOW, LOW - xatsi

Depending on what acct you're own, it can take forever to find doc names, discern formats, blah blah all the while being paid peanuts. Maybe peanuts would be worth more than 3 cpl.

That's the problem; recruiters usually ARE great--sm - CM

--that's part of their job, to schmooze and bring in the bodies--but you generally won't be working with them and many recruiters (though certainly not all) will paint an unrealistic picture of what the company is like. You really can't go by the "feel" a recruiter gives you for a company, or at least that has been my painful experience more than once over the years.

But a recruiters can work in your favor. The recruiter was so - anxious to have me sign on she gave me

terms that have been very helpful to me, maybe not so the MTSO. She wanted me (IC) to give specific time I would work. Told her I couldnt do that I could commit to 5 hours in the first shift. She wanted me to say specifically what 5 hours but I wouldnt. So she sent me a contract for any 5 hours in the first shift. Sometimes I log in at 8, sometimes 10, just as long as I get 5 hours in.

You were fortunate, then, as sometimes what happens is--SM - CM

--the recruiter will make promises that your supervisor/manager/leads/whatever will not honor. I had one recruiter in particular tell me I was hired for a particular job (large hospital, low ESL, a certain shift and certain pay rate) and when I accepted and was hired I was then told I would be on a different hospital (very high ESL percentage), and a different shift than I was promised. The only thing they couldn't mess me around with was the pay rate, as that was written into the contract itself, and none of the rest of it was.

Get it in writing is the moral of the story, I guess, and beware the bait and switch.

Fortunate? Prefer to think standing up for myself. Not letting MTSO - walk all over me. Knowing SM

what IC means and what can, and cannot, be asked of me. Not being a witch about stating my rights, but not backing down either.

worked there at beginning of year, hated the platform and pay, nm - was too low

I worked there for almost 18 months and was miserable the whole time. They are the worst MTSO in my opinion. I went through at least 6 supervisor changes in that short time. They leave faster than they come in. I was way underpaid and filed a complaint with the DOL in Florida and got screwed big time. Do.Not.Work.There. I implore you! I have former QAs as references for me and they left as well. It's bad.

Thanks so much everyone for your replies. Will definitely keep looking! :) - anon

I've looked through the archives here and I'm not finding any current information on SOAP Transcription. Does anyone have any recent info for me on the company? Are they a good company to work for?
