MTSOs posting jobs ads need to be a little more forthcoming with info - Please sm


Posted: Dec 12, 2014

Would it be such a problem to list all aspects, including pay, in the job ads?  MTSOs, could you please not go on and on about how great you are and give us information we need so as not to waste your time and ours?  Why make us jump through the hoops of resume, application, and testing.  This is a very time consuming process, especially since we will apply to more than 1 job? 

In addition to equipment needed, IC/employee, platform, shift, etc., what is your production requirement?  Are there any bonus incentives?  What exactly is your pay for VR and ST?  Why is it such a secret? 

I have seen ads (smaller companies mostly), who will even state the specialties, and whether or  not there are heavy ESLs, and their dictation practices.  These are open and honest ads.  They hide nothing.  They seriously need an MT.  They want them to know what they are getting into.  Anything else is a waste of time and effort for everyone.

I have posted this same request many times. - some comply, some do not. SM

especially about the pay. They're pretty tight with that information, but some do let it out.

Yes, the smaller companies will give more information but the bigger ones have recruiters who are paid to waste everyone's time, including their own, with incomplete information. I will state one company who is very good about wasting an MTs time with computer information; they make you go through some sort of computer diagnostic thing, then the recruiter says she's not a computer person, she'll let tech support figure that out.

Then you waste more of your time on the phone or emails trying to figure that mess out with several people at TTS.

SoftScript Posting Jobs For 100 MT
Apr 22, 2013

After 18 months of no problems, and flipping between 6 accounts with the most idiosynchratic site specs, on top of the most outmoded platform, suddenly I don't pass audit, taking off the same error 3 times against me. Their editors and auditors know less than the MTs they are judging; I caught them on 4 different errors. They treat you like toilet paper, so those 100 MTs they need (wonder why?) better change their designations to TPs! ...


Why Does Accentus Keep Posting For Jobs, And Not Just Say It Is Nuance
Jan 03, 2013

That is unfair. They should just advertise under Nuance now.  People might jump to the job thinking it is another company, and come to find out it is Nuance.  This is false advertising. I surely wish Accentus would quit posting job openings. I get excited whenever I see a good job listing then I see it is Accentus/Nuance all over again. Sheesh.  Thanks for listening to my little rant. ...

I Will Keep Posting This Info Until Every Affected MT Sees It
Nov 19, 2014

If you work on Veterans Administration (VA) accounts, you MUST be classified as an employee and earn the appropriate wage determination rate (in the neighborhood of $14 to $20-plus an hour depending on county).  In addition, you must have a separate hourly rate of pay that is applied towards a benefits package. If you are doing this kind of work and are not properly classified or you are not being paid what you're supposed to be paid, REPORT YOUR MTSO TO THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR.   ...

The MTSOs Have Found Another Way To Screw Us -- Anyone Have Info On
Apr 26, 2010

Looks like the MTSOs have found a new trick pony.  They tried to screw Medical Transcriptionists out of hard-earned money by trying to implement line counts based on VBC (visible black character), but very few MTs were willing to accept that, so not many MTSOs are still trying to push it.  Now they have found their newest way to screw the MT -- “meeting quality” mandate in order for us to keep the minimum wage we currently make.  Pay is set at .09 for 65 char line wi ...

It is insulting to all of us with the way that MT pay has gone down the drain, it is frustrating and aggravating to look for a "decent" job these days, trying to work out which companies will treat you fairly, which ones lie about their platforms, work, etc., and not only do these companies not want to pay us what we are worth but now I see that MANY companies are requiring the MT to have or "be willing" to purchase hundreds of dollars worth of equipment.  If an employer can PROMISE IN ...
