Rebecca on job seekers board, I really would like to know, sm - the name of company

Posted: Jan 05, 2010

I notice in this new post an apology for not getting back with so may e-mails. I received the testing from this woman with an e-mail stating that I qualified to test, but no response from my e-mail requesting the name of the company I would be testing for. Needless to say, I did not take the test.

I took the test - jd

I took the first test and she said I had passed and sent me two files to transcribe. She said that if I got a 98% she would be calling me that day with an offer of a position. I never heard from her again. I have done lots of cardio and I have done QA, and I feel sure that I did well on those files. They were short and pretty easy, and I went over each one twice to be sure they were clean. I have since emailed her to ask what happened and to ask the name of the company and have heard nothing back. Seems like a lot of trouble to go to in order to get someone to do free work, as was suggested by someone on here, but I can't figure out what's going on.

I got the same response you did. sm - asteinour

She sent the two files and stated if I got 98% I would be offered a job that day as well. I have heard nothing from her. I sent her a follow-up e-mail as well, and still nothing. I am assuming she needed to get some files caught up and this was a free way to do it. How frustrating!

i also tested, passed, and asked about the company. Have not heard anything since.

If she gets 100 resumes a day, why does she keep posting - ? Makes no sense.

That was my first clue something was fishy. I would go to the 100s of resumes that I have before I post a job opening. Weird.

testing without knowing??? - Curious

Just wondering, did she give any information about the job or the company before you took the time to test. I think I would at least want to know the name of the company I was testing for. When you asked about the company, what information did you get? I can't understand why these people want to waste our time. Don't they have lives or jobs or something?

Her 2nd ad is now gone . . . - SoCal MT

That says a lot, doesn't it?

2nd ad - Tara

I think the moderators on this board take off any ads that don't have a company name per the rules of this board so it probably wasn't her that removed it.

Her ad was removed because she did not follow MTSO guidelines. NM - Moderator

Rebecca ad - old, tired, frustrated, angry MT

Does anyone remember what the original ad said? I too tested twice and did well. I was really excited until I came in here and read what was going on. Well, if 100 of us test and we all do reasonably well and only one or two things need to get fixed to send that note onto the client - that's a lot of lines that got done (free) I wish she would repost and clarify this!

Does anyone actually work for MW Transcription Services? When you go to her website, all you find is her hawking her book and multiple ads for schools (including the matchbooks that guarantee $60,000 year). Her “SERVICES” and “RATES” tabs are empty. How does a company get any business without having any of that type of information on their website? In fact, the only tabs that have any information are the ones that offer her ebook for sale and her ...

On Job Seeker's Board, which is for employers to post jobs available, someone who appears to be a job applicant, and seems to be a "new" poster asks: "What is CV and why would someone ask for that to be included in a job application?" Since this question might get lost or deleted from the Job Seeker's Board, I sent an e-mail to the poster, but will reply here in case more than one person has wondered. CV can be the abbreviation for the Latin term Curriculum ...

Hello fellow MTs, I have mainly worked for a local company out of my home. In fact, it's been my only MT job. I didn't mind giving out information such as my social security number for an IC position because I knew this person well. This company paid via mailed checks so there was no exchange of bank account information. I am asking because I have been contacted through this board to test after posting a job wanted ad. Please help me out if you can. My questions are: How do ...

In case you have not figured this out already, you are probably not going to ever get out of MT into some other office position unless you become proficient in Microsoft Office. I just had an interview and was once again told that I was less likely to be hired without those skills (part of the job is MT; that part they liked). If you've been doing nothing but transcribing and editing medical reports for the last 20 or 30 years, like I have, it's time to brush up your skill ...

She's paying $8 per hour of audio. Her example is if she gives your 4 hours of audio work, you will get paid $32 for the work. Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the 1:3 ratio (3 hours of transcribing per 1 hour audio), that would only come to about $2.60 an hour. Right? Or am I grossly wrong in calculations here? ...

I don't know how many are aware, but one of the reasons you never get called for an interview is because the ATS (automatic tracking systems) rated it low, so it never reached the interviewer's desk. The link below will help you to "customize" your resume for each job you are applying for. It does this through an analysis of both the job posting as well as your resume, and then it points out missing keywords. After you make the corrections, you can download the resume and then use ...

It is so very frustrating! I type for a wound care clinic, and, of course, a great deal of the patients there are diabetic, as am I. About a year ago I learned from my diabetic teacher that a local supermarket chain pharmacy offers all diabetic supplies and meds for free, whether you are insured or not. At least once every couple of weeks I type a note in which the doctor says the patient hasn't been able to afford his/her diabetes medication or insulin, and they seem to ...

You see it periodically, OB, radiology, and something else but it's pretty clear the work will be OB. The test consists of 3 files (getting this from the ad) and you should finish it in less than 2 hours. 3 files? How long are the files? So, my real question is (the other two were thiinking out loud), does this ad get run periodically to clear out the backlog or is it really a legit job and why does it come up so often? It's not the exact same ad everytime ...
