Swew!!! Just finished testing for Keystrokes - Feeling optimistic

Posted: Apr 02, 2014

I hope to hear from them, but if not I will just keep on in my search. Hertz rent a car sent me an email to call and set up an interview with them for a Domestic Agent, working from home starting at 10 dollars an hour and double pay on holidays. I am calling first thing in the morning. I am determined to change jobs from the company I am at this year and I will let nothing get in the way...

The Hertz job looks interesting - but onsite training in Alabama

If you can go to Alabama, I say go for it! Most of us aren't making that much as MTs after we pay our self-employment taxes. Let us know if you go.

You book reservations and get good discounts - Feeling optimistic

They also have good benefits. I hope I get it, but am still putting in applications just in case I don't...either way, this year I'm out of Nuance on the first thang smokin..

Good luck to you! I'd do it in a heartbeat. I could not find anything at their website. nm - Not hopeful for MT

We have a Hertz Center here - Feeling optimistic

and I think at home jobs are only available for people who have a call center within their zip code area, that way if your computer goes down, you have to go inside the center to work.. My cousin has a job at Google where she works at home. She lives in Atlanta and that is where they have a center at

Do anyone know..... - Just me

how much the Hertz people get paid for customer service or Google. I just wondered because Hertz had a lot of positions open and the one nearest me would be about 30 miles one way. With gas prices and people don't seem to want to pay more than 10-12 bucks an hour.....would it be worth it? Hertz was not a work at home job.

I just finished testing with Softscript. Whew that was kind of hard -- much different than what the other companies have you do. You really had to know your medical terminology and about disease processes and what medicines are used for what. Now I just have to wait to hear results and if I have a job or not. This is so agonizing at times!!!! ...

Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't help think that the training person on those videos is trying to sell used cars. The tone of her voice sounds so fake - and some of those incredible words she used, like "streamlining" or describing this exceptionally wonderful program (not her words, but something like it). It was my impression that she got the job to train us 3000 MTs because of her salesman-like attitude, not teaching expertise. She fumbled around, not very profes ...

I am an LPN who is currently taking classes to become an RN. I just finished my final in my MT course that I took online through US Career Institute. I stumbled upon this site when researching for an at home job for MT's. I was going to take the certificaton through AHDI thinking that would help give me a boost but I saw a post saying it was not really a big deal if you take it. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on what is the best company to work from home for. ...

$66.03. I worked my BUTT off tonight for $8.25 an hour. Back in the day, those 1400 lines would have grossed at LEAST $116 for the day, AND, I wouldn't have worked 1/4 as hard then as I did tonight for that measly 66 bucks. Doctors and lawyers are paid for the education over and over and over again. WHY is it so different for MTs? Twenty-two years of this and I can't believe I'm reduced to this. Wow...... ...

I just finished MT school/training and am beginning to look for jobs. I live in a small town so I'm sure I'll do work from home. However, I am as nervous as heck because I don't know if I can manage 98% on most tests. I haven't yet taken an employment test, but by the time I finished school I was hovering around 96-97 and just couldn't seem to get any better. Do I even have a chance here? ...

Well, I started my new job as an office assistant and I love it. It was nice to know that when I got home, I was done for the day. I did not have to work into the night and worry about making my lines. On Friday, we had absolutely no patients scheduled and no doctors were in the clinic and I still got paid. If I had been doing transcription, I would have been without pay for the entire weekend and would have had to compete with everyone else on my account on Monday to try ...

Wow! I just completed the Inscribe test. It took me a solid 6 hours today, plus an extra hour or two the other night. I feel like I started out doing very well, but towards the end I was leaving a lot of blanks. I just hope I did well enough, and they will give me a chance. Anyone else test recently? Thoughts? ...

After working for the Q/M-Modal for 15 years, and transcribing for 30 years total, I transcribed my last report on Friday, 06/22/2012 and started residency. I got paid $863 this week for less than 40 hours of work, and I didn't listen to a single report. I almost felt guilty. I get 15 days off this year paid vacation, which will go up to 18 hours next year. Sure, it was a lot of work to get here, but it was much easier on me than the other students bec ...

I am thinking about taking a billing/coding class, but noticed that getting a job after that involved having the RHIT or CCS. I am wonding if this will be a catch 22 and don't want to spend time in school for coding if I cannot pass these 2 tests when I am done, as it looks like I will not be able to get hired without these certificates. Sorry about the confusion on this. Thanks for your time and info. ...

I had to request a medical report for myself and oh dear lord what a mess that point-and-click stuff is. They check all items in a ROS and the thing throws it all together in giant run-on sentences, separating everything by a comma, and leaving weird spaces everywhere. There's no consistency anywhere in how it makes things look, i.e. in a numbered list that has 1., 2., etc., putting one space after the period after the number and the next one putting 2 spaces, then back to 1 space, then may ...

Feel that it's not really what you want to do? I finished my coding course at Andrews and truly don't feel that's what I want to do. I feel disappointment in myself because I invested that much time in school and did very well, but I feel it's not really the job for me. I was just wondering if anyone else has gone through this or anything similiar? Did you just stick with it until you found a job and did your feelings change? I kept try ...

I have finished schooling for the ICD9, and am getting ready to start an adjunct ICD10 class. The AHIMA is changing the test to ICD10 at the end of April. I wonder if there will be any ICD9 on there at all. Also, for the coders out there that have trained with the ICD10, do you find it will be a better system than ICD9? I am excited to learn it. Thank you, PJ ...

Does anyone know how long it might take to hear back from Patient First regarding my application and typing test?
