LOVE! I have been working for Gulf Coast for almost 3 years. Absolutely ove working for them. Great staff from office to editors; open communication; decent pay with excellent incentive programs (weekend incentive and if you transcribe over 25,000 lines a month you are paid more). I work on the ChartScript.net platform. I believe they also have Dictaphone/VoiceScribe. I have been very, very happy working for them. Also, there is always work! Please e-mail me if you have further questions :-)
Have reviewed the information in the archives but was hoping to find someone that works for them currently or has recently worked for them. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. ...
Looking for any info on Gulf Coast Transcription of FL as I am seeking a new home. I am currently working and have time to explore options before jumping ship. ...
Any other GCT MTs on MT Stars at the moment? I can't get in to Chartscript.Net tonight. I get this message: Unable to open this internet shortcut. The protocol https does not have a registered program.
Anyone else experiencing this oddity? ...
They have terminated some office/administrative people and now have eliminated weekend incentives and given pay CUTS to transcriptionists. Work is nearly non-existent. At the beginning of the summer they said it was a temporary slow down and would pick up shortly. Instead it seems to be getting worse. Anyone know anything??
I really really like this company and hate to see this happening. ...
Someone asked about them and I am bringing it back up to the top. One person said it all now VR, another said they saw their only account in the "Nuance pool." I don't get it. First of all, what is a Nuance Pool? I work for them and although work has slowed down, if Nuance was now contracting, wouldn't the work be completely gone? Also as for all VR, it's about half and half. We are hoping the summer slow down will end soon and work will pick up ...
It appears that Gulf Coast has either severely cut the hours, or laid off most of their IC transcriptionists. I was laid off. This was a nice company to work for, and I would really feel bad for them, but they told us things that just weren't true since last summer when they started losing work. Plus they appeared to deny the rumors on this website back in September. Then we got a really nasty email from the main supervisor a couple months ago all about how they were ...
A friend was laid off recently from them, but then another friend advised me to apply and that work would pick up after the holidays. Any idea what's going on? ...
Could a current employee tell me what is happening with this company? Work dwindled to nothing and there was talk of acquiring new accounts, but I had to jump ship before that happened. This was a wonderful place to work and I am just wishing and dreaming. Have they picked up any new accounts and are they still in business? Thank you. ...
I keep getting server error, something about it not liking my sender address. Well, I've used 2 different addresses with different servers and both don't work. ...
Fort Myers, FL. I know there is info in the archives, but I have not seen anything recently. I really need an honest answer in regard to pay scale and flexibility with scheduling. Any help appreciated!!
TIA ...
Has anyone tested with them?
Here's their testing process if you're interested......it's a hoot!
I got a Word document which asked me to supply the correct spellings. The auto-correct feature already did this for me when I opened the document, so that was a no-brainer.
There were questions in which I had to choose the correct way to word a paragraph, etc. There was one that was especially troubling to me, it required me to choose the correct paragraph and it listed several ...
Does anyone have any up-to-date information on Clear Choice Transcription. What is their platform like? Is it straight typing or voice recognition? What is the training like? How many lines can you expect to type? Is there flexibility in the position? I would just like to get some honest opinions from someone that has worked there so I know what I'm getting myself into. Thanks! ...
I was wondering if anyone who had recently applied to Gulf Coast Transcription had heard back yet. I see they have a new ad on another job site. I applied last week but haven't heard anything yet. I got error message when I submitted my application, but the site said not to worry about it.
Anyway, just getting anxious. Thanks! ...
have heard it gets slow during the summer, particularly July-August, but this slow? I love it there, I really really do. I read, below, about people who said just get used to the slow down and I am trying, but I am not evening making minimum. It all seemed to happen after the computers were switched over or whatever it was mid-May with lots of work and now barely any.
I need reassurance that it always is this slow and will pick up in the autumn. In the meanti ...
read the archives and there has not been a whole lost posted recently. The corporate office is in Illinois. Looking for good/bad, platform info, pay, flexibility of schedules, etc.
Thanks so much! ...
Please don't make fun of me for this one. I am truly confused. Wouldn't a report that you transcribed during the pay week necessarily have been transcribed on one of the days of the pay week? I just don't get this. I am a little mathematically challenged and would appreciate someone making this clear for me. ...
I'm wondering if anyone has some updated information on ANP transcription? I've searched and found some older info regarding late payment, low rate. I've passed their tests and have transcribed focus groups before, and right in their contract it states how often they pay and the rate, so I'm clear on that. I'm not trying to make a full-time job of this gig, just some extra money. It's always scary to hear some bad news about a prospective job, but it didn't se ...
