mttest.com - What a waste of my time

Got Duped again. Send my resume in, got ASKED to test, Feel I did excellent on the test, but get a mail back saying that they cannot hire me at this time. Knowing that no one ever gives you any explanation as to why you fail, I went ahead and sent a mail asking why. The answer I received really threw me off. The answer was: "We require at least 3 years experience to hire". My resume clearly states that I have almost 2 years exp so they made me test for absolutely NOTHING! GREAT ...

Spent a long time testing this weekend to a company who shall remain nameless. objective test really tough but I aced it. 5 dictations....I scored 96.6 out of 97. not good enuf. 19 years means nothing? on to bigger and better pastures... ...

One instance I sent something in and THEY spelled it wrong and blamed us for spelling it wrong in the reports..the rest of them I get,,, "I checked and there is nothing in the system for that to be happening...the MTs are doing it wrong so that ASR is picking it up and making it print out that way" perhaps your manager needs to send out a message...Well if you mark it NEVER to capitalize then it should never capitalize and even if they are right how come on one report the stuff is capped a ...

Don't waste your time on this guy. The test is ridiculous, and the pay is peanuts. They are having offshore "transcribers" type GENERAL AND CORPORATE reports, and we all know how horrible OS "transcribers" are at figuring out the nuances of the English language. Then the U.S. proofreader is going to have to fix all of the errors. There will be no money to be made as an editor in this position. OS "transcribers" can't even get the SOCIAL HISTORY section of a medical report rig ...

MJOL ads. This is a service requesting you to pay $110 for 3 months for their service!! Complete waste of time!! ...

As if we don't have enough BS to wade through and crap emails to read before trying to get a little money from them, I read an email that says "Here is a list of the previous MTIs that were renamed today." Really? Like that matters. If I am going to spend my own time reading the emails that seem more like a trap on how they can keep from giving my my bonus, I would rather read a specific instruction....not that someone got paid to change the name of the instruction. ...

Sent in request, my TM sent in on for next level. Well, the powers above decided my placement of period and/or comma impacted the integrity of the record and should be scored as incorrect verbage rather than punctuation. The 1 point for verbage as opposed to .25 for punctuation makes that short report a fail. Give us a frigging break. Don't know why I waste my time. Just when I calm down and think "working here isn't so bad", something l ...

Just took another test at that site and, as we all know, most of the time the tests are ridiculously easy and yet I keep failing...supposedly. Something fishy in Vancouver:))) ...

this is quite worrisome! ...

On the newbie page is yet another thread with nothing but mindless- "don't waste your money/time" posts from supposedly experienced MTs. Like it or not, MT isn't disappearing. Neither is AHDI. Like it or not, credentialing is going to be a fact of life if you're an MT. I'm no big fan of AHDI either, but I have paid enough attention to what's going on in the industry to know what the wind is bringing in. The MTs who do little more than bash and dash, w ...

When it is dictated that the patient had knee surgery, (a couple of other procedures), then says rotator cuff and patella surgery... would that be considered a repeat of the knee surgery? How am I supposed to know if when he dictated this, he was referring to the same surgery or not? I blanked it and got an error on a post audit. If I had repeated a DX in the list, I would have been marked off for that---cannot win either way. ...

posting the same jobs for which they received 735 responses, mine included. 31 years of experience, multispecialty, 3 compatible computers, and must have got 100% on the easiest 'test' I've ever taken...I wonder which of us will 'get a life' first...and who's the bigger fool at this point, the poster or responders... jes' sayin'--know what I mean KB? ...

On the mttest site I have noticed that some are by Career Step and others are not. I always pass the ones that are not, but when Career Step is involved, I seem to be told every time I need more schooling and this is after being an MT for 18 years and also having run my own business. Does anyone know of any companies that do not use Career Step for testing? Where I work now didnt and I had no problems. Other places I worked, I was not tested with Career Step involved and ...

Does MTTest use the current BOS 3 rules? I never updated because my last job didn't follow BOS that closely. Would I benefit buying the BOS 3 and going through it before I tested at MTTest? Thanks! ...

How exactly do you score well on these automatically graded tests from mttest? I am a CMT with many years experience and while I do pass, sometimes I get a score in the 80s and then other times its the high 90s. I have been told that some let it automatically score and others manually score them. What is the secret? Is it just a formatting thing that throws the scores off so much? ...

I believe that if we all boycott MTTest, that these companies will have to find other ways to test applicants. From this point on, I will no longer take any tests through the MTTest website. Also, any company who throws more than 3 or 4 dictations at you for testing purposes isn't worth working for. So, MTSOs, get ready for the onslaught because I doubt that I'm the only one willing to do this. No company is worth the grief of having to spend hours taking tests, ...

Regaring MTTest and their pass/fail inconsistencies - I'm wondering if they don't set these things to fail anything after a certain number of test takers. I'm just saying, if I were an MTSO hring a weed-wacker like MTTest, and with the high number of applicants these years, I'd be saying something on the order of "just send me the top 20." and so MTTest takes the top 20 from say...50, or even the top from after 2 days of open testing, and then 'defaults ...

I'm a recent MT grad. and was wondering how this website works? Are there any websites that offer practice tests that are similar to the type online companies use? I haven't taken any online tests yet and wonder do most companies let you use a foot pedal? Or do they use the F1, F2 etc. commands? thanks for any advice! ...

When using mttest, do you expand the abbreviations the first time encountered in the report? I know mttest can be tricky and I'm worried I'm doing it wrong. Thanks! ...

The site is very literal. Here are some tips. Objective: 1. Thoroughly read the instructions. Don't try to think about the instructions - simply read them and follow them. For example if it tells you to type the correct spelling of a word into a field (picking a misspelled word out of a phrase), only type that word - not anything else. 2. Look up every single word and definition before you make a choice. I don't care how much you T ...

it the next day? Will they save your test overnight? I started late today and ran into a problem (personal) and was wondering if I could finish the test tomorrow. Appreciate any info. ...

HELP? Has anyone out there recently passed the mttest.com (created by Career Step) that most all companies are utilizing to prescreen their candidates? I am a Career Step graduate (high honors) with many yearsâ�� experience working for a very large global transcription company; yet I cannot seem to pass the aforementioned test to save my life. I find this strange for the following reasons: 1. I passed the same (or nearly the same) test, on the 1st try, with a 99% combined score t ...

It has been my experience that any time a company requests that you go to their testing site to complete a test, it seems to be a waste of time in screening candidates. The audio files are extremely hard to hear and half the time the audio skips. There should be a better way to screen applicants than by using these testing sites. It is a no-win situation. You spend two hours doing their screening and trying to transcribe reports that are not the work type that they are ev ...

I find myself shying away from companies that use mttest. Something about that method of testing and scoring just doesn't sit right with me. ...

If anyone knows of a hospital, clinic, or large practice offering remote full-time or part-time employee positions, I would really appreciate an email. I have the sudden need to help support a family member long term (in addition to myself) and really need to find a long-term remote employee position for the stability. Yes, I watch all the various employment sites and even individual hospital sites, but I was hoping that maybe, just maybe someone who works for a hospital that does th ...

I am wondering what the average for part time and full time status is either if it is done by line count or hours. Thanks so much! ...

Has anyone working for an MTSO been downgraded from full-time status to part-time status based on not enough hours worked to be considered full time, yet making well above the minimum amount of earnings required for full-time status? ...

It has been inconvenient, and maybe a bit confusing at times, to check my time card hours for my shift as, because of my time zone, part of my hours show up on the next day because I work 2nd shift. I wonder if I will get overtime for yesterday, even though I did not work overtime. I had to start work several hours early because of maintenance, so all hours were completed before the hour my hours start showing up on the next day. Fine. But the last couple hours of yesterday show up as today, ...
