Has anyone tested for Keystrokes? If so, can you tell me how long before you hear from anyone regarding testing, interview, etc.? Thank you!

if you don't hear from there. Almost all the straight transcription is going away, and the VR accounts I have are AWFUL. At 4 cpl, you'd be lucky to make minimum wage most days. I've know I need to get out of MT for a while now. Guess the KS VR is the push that will finally make me do it. Good luck to you.

It's not hard to make money on 4cpl on VR - with escription

I average $10-12/hour with escription making 4 cpl.

I make that and more on VR, too, with KS. sm - KS MT

I think it depends on the account. No matter what someone here asks about any company, there will be naysayers.

It took them a few days to get back to me, but that was several years ago. The worst was waiting for IDs, but that has changed.

Not a naysayer. I'm sharing my experience. Period. - Current KSer

Perhaps you are new to MT. At one time, a skilled person could make good $, $25-30/hr. That can't be done with KS. Maybe it can't be done anywhere anymore. IDK.

$10-12/hr is not even minimum wage in lots of places. I can't believe we're settling for t - Current KSer

And I'm on Chartnet. Must be worse.

I'm on Chartnet, too. I average $14 an hour. Not good but I have work and it's consisten - KS MT

I am not saying that it's great pay, but it's good for me right now. It's more than I was making at MM a short time ago. I worked both for a short while, but then went to KS full time.

I don't think the $25-35 mentioned above happens anywhere anymore. I have never been fast enough to be at that level, but I am accurate and work hard. I am OK with the $14 an hour.

Chartnet?? - Blanche

Chartnet is still a thing? I thought they died last fall when they got rid of their developers.

What are you talking about? They still have developers and a lot of customers. KS owns it but othe - IT Geek

I did a beta test for them last week and talked to two programmers.

Where do the rumors come from all the time on so many companies?

I was partly mistaken - they only got rid of one developer, and it was in May, not fall of last year...

Still, I'm surprised they're still in business, considering KS's history of money troubles.

$10-$12/hr. is good money now for an MT, given that so many - accounts are either gone or hardly have work.

Help finding testing site link with KS - mt

[ In Reply To ..]
Can you please give me the testing site link? This is a ridiculous problem but when I sent my resume to the recruiter she gave me the link to their site and supposedly the test site but I do not see where you actually do the testing. I even emailed her again and she sent me the same link to their site and still do not find where to go to test. All I find is a link to her email to send a resume. Is it right in front of me and I just don't see it? I feel like an idiot.

I recently saw a job ad for this company and am considering testing for a job. The job ad does not specifically state their equipment requirements. I went to their company web site to try to find out, but I can't find any place where they list whether you need a footpedal to take the test. I feel like a bonehead because I'm sure I must be missing it somewhere. I did find where they list some hardware and internet requirements and it just says you need speakers a ...

I tested last week and got such bad dictation I could not believe it. I tried to transcribe it as if I was getting paid the usual 8 CPL and realized it would take more time to complete it and I would be making zero money. Sloppy H&P with a heavy accent, whispering AND loud background noise; a coronary catheterization dictation that I commend an MT on even completing that I was supposed to edit. I sent the test back anyway and got an email saying I didn't pass the minimum, whatever tha ...

My question is this? What is everyone's issue really? I see a lot of complaining but I have found that in this industry if you do your work and stick to your schedule you make plenty of money. In addition, I see complaints regarding not getting answers to questions, etc. Can you not get information from account specs and research? Again, this is an industry where you have to do some leg work to get the job done 90% of the time (most companies do not have team l ...

I've failed each test. I actually passed the first set of tests for Webmedx, but then they gave me a VR test, and I've never done that before, so I failed. I even got turned down at a local hospital. I've been out of the field for the past 2 years taking care of my baby, so I'm very rusty right now. I used to be a very good transcriptionist. I've only worked from home once before. The rest of my time has been spent working at a hospita ...

All of the negative posts on here and the company board are making me think I'm going to decline the offer. Sad thing is, I have already caught them in a contradiction, which confirms what many of you have said one can expect from this company. I sure wish I could find a company that appreciates what we do for them and shows it by not misrepresenting what they have to offer and by paying a decent wage so as to encourage its people to stay put. I'm tired of a ...
