ShurCan transcription - Vickie R

Posted: Aug 15, 2013

They have posted a job as of a few minutes ago. When calling their office, the lady was very rude and had no time to talk. Wonder if she is this way with a nonemployee, how she really treats her employees.....

Maybe it's because she was busy - nn

Vickie, most MTSOs/recruiters do not appreciate people calling the office with "general type" questions. She was probably rude or abrupt because she had many things to do and was interrupted by a phone call. I have not yet seen the ad, but most MTSOs/recruiters prefer that you not call the office.

ad clearly says "NO phone calls." I'd be ticked too. - 2 months training at 6 cpl with experience

Now that's something to get ticked over.

5-6 line?

5-6 cents per line - price charged

Before judging a company about pay think about this - does anyone every consider what the going rate transcription charges are in the state they are being hired? Did you know that the going rate in Nevada is 10 cents per line and that is hard pressed to even get that. Go out and try to get a client with straight transcription and maybe you would understand why the pay is cheap. Be hard pressed now days to even find a client that is not voice recognition.

Then they should advertise locally in their state - We have to live

I agree, pay scales and cost of living is different in each state, so why don't they just run a local ad and hire in their own state? They don't do this, because nation-wide, they can find the best of the best and that is what they want....they just don't want to pay for it.

They hired me a couple of weeks ago. I put in a ton of time doing all of their paperwork and training, etc. She then just let me go because I could not figure out (with no direction or answer to questions) how to open templates she sent me in dropbox (which is horrible if anyone has used it) that were only opening for me as spreadsheets...not in word. We tried everything and could not get it to work. I had an IT friend fix it for me and told her I got it figured out, then she let me go and said I did not follow directions (of which I never got any!) Best of luck if you pursue this, but as others said I would not waste your time for the nightmare and pay. She was also very rude to me. :(

Sorry, but it's not classy to call. An e-mail would have been better.

The lady that runs this company is very mean-spirited. I interviewed and tested with her and she treated me horribly. She was very demeaning and degrading and completely unwilling to mentor an oncoming transcriptionist with her accounts. She expected perfection and when there some very minor errors, she abruptly ended the conversation via messenger and pulled my account out of the dropbox. I was horrified. I would not work for her if she paid 10 cpl.

Since the advent of voice recognition and overseas outsourcing, transcription has ceased to be a profession. I will NEVER -- repeat, NEVER make the money I was making as a transcriptionist at a hospital 5 years ago, before we were replaced by VR and cheap outsourcing to India. Now all that's left are transcription companies here in the U.S. that don't want to pay much more, lie to us and tamper with our line counts. GET OUT, GET OUT OF TRANSCRIPTION! ...

It seems that everyone has negative things to say about how employers do not pay MTs what they're worth and how they offshore the easy stuff, but pile on the lousy ESL stuff on the transcriptionists in the States. Too bad there can't be a general strike of U.S. MTs - a day without transcription - just to show how we're needed. It seems to be the only thing employers would understand. Impossible, I know, but I bet employers would sit up and take notice. ...

If anyone, especially brand new rookie transcriptionists, get a job offer from DIT transcription, DO NOT TAKE IT!!! I have worked there for about 3 months now and have yet to be paid. They will not return my calls or emails regarding this (but they return promptly when I have a question about a dictation) and when the owner, ****, did finally email me back, he said the check was in the mail, and of course, it wasn't. I did research the company before I took the job an ...

Wow, did anybody read their ad? It is so full of DO NOT requests--do not call me, do not say you will do the work and then not do it, do not do this, do not do that, etc. I wonder if someone applying for the job included an equal number of DO NOTS for the MTSO if he or she would respond? I am thankful that I already have a good job. I would not want to work for anyone who is so negative in an ad. If it is this bad in an ad, how is s/he in person? She fails to ...

Don't work for this company. They are extremely picky. One person tells you to do it one way, another tells you differently. They tell you to leave blanks for another to listen to (that's what we want!) but then complain that you are leaving blanks. No one can hear some of the poor dictators and you need to leave a blank. If you decide to try to fill in the blank, you are wrong too. I am a very experienced transcriptionist to have been treated this p ...

PLEASE..do not be foolish enough to work for this company!! They are offerring 3 cents for VR. A seasoned MT well versed in voice recognition software, particularly Editscript, produced by eEscription out of Massachusetts, can make 500-600 lines per hour. At 3 cents a line that is slave wages. It will average you 12 cents a line on a good account. I knew this would happen eventually. I am making 4.5 cents on Editscript and making 28-30 an hour before my IC status. Do not ...
