Has anyone who responded to the recent Keystrokes job openings heard anything yet. Just wondering. Thanks

I'm supposedly on their "send openings" to list. However, I haven't heard of any openings in probably close to 2 months. As well, the ones they do send me about are never the same as what they advertise.

I would hope they aren't just trying to build-up a resume pool and have no actual job openings now.

I too was on that list, but have not heard anything for a while. You are right, the openings that were available were the same old ones, the bottom of the barrel, it seems like. I was really excited when I saw their recent ad on this site, but it seems unrealistic since everyone is complaining of being out of work or very slow that they would be hiring this time of year with the holidays coming up.

right on .... positions they hire for (crap platform) are never the ones they advertise; and ... - those who accept the lowest pay. n/m

Keystrokes platforms - Curious mind

[ In Reply To ..]
If anyone knows, how many platforms does Keystrokes have? Which are considered the "crap"?

I am new to at-home work and was hired by Kestrokes several months ago. I find everyone nice, I but do have a hard time making my lines. Maybe my platform I am on is not good?

There is nothing I plan to do about this, but would feel better if I knew it was not just me.

Thanks!

Meditech, for one, as stated in List post just below this. - n/m

DocQscribe is a GREAT platform..MQ just stinks...I am hoping I can make Meditech work never tried it...The one I am now is not so great either.

Keystrokes hired me at more money then I have been making as well. 9 cpl..

I applied a short time ago and they did not have a shift that worked for me, but said they would e-mail me with openings. It was for the Meditech platform that a lot of people here say is hard to work with. I never got an e-mail. I applied because I had seen good reviews on this company on this board in the past.

KS never will. I worked there long enough to know one thing: Do not believe too much of what is said and nothing of what you hear or read.

I was just wondering if some of these companies read what people say and perhaps, a BIG maybe, they take it into consideration. Has your company ever sent a group email out about something they read on here? I know at Landmark, one time a long time ago, someone came on here and made accusations that she was not paid by them. The owner send an email to us, letting us know that she was an upset former employee and they have never not paid anyone, ever. Just wondering if oth ...

I noticed on the job seeker's board lately Transcend has openings every week. I also realize they are one of the top 3 dogs in the industry supposedly, but I cannot help but notice the other 2 top dogs are not advertising weekly to job seekers. I bet many will say because they are acquiring NEW accounts, but I am suspicious it is because they cannot keep MTs. ...

I don't understand these MTSOs. I've interviewed with both Keystrokes and Transcend per their job seeker's board ads for all shifts available, part-time and full-time, and offered a job. However, both declared no 1st shift openings and that they are only hiring for 2nd and 3rd shifts, nor do they have any part-time openings. They both indicated that 1st shift rarely has openings and they don't regularly hire part-timers. Why do they advertise thes ...

The email states that, if you pass the test and get the job, you will get a 5% raise with max of 10.5 cents typing, 6.3 cents ASR, although....hmmm.... no QA rate is mentioned. Did MMEs not get the same pay cut that the rest of us MT/ASR editors did? Very interesting that no QA rate is mentioned....me thinks me smells a rat hidden in the wall. ...

Would current new hires at JLG for the new verbatim account please answer these questions: 1. What is their cpl rate? 2. How difficult are the dictators? 3. Is there enough work? 4.

I haven't worked for almost three months and I figure at least a verbatim account shouldn't be that hard to get right. Plea ...

I hate my shift and would prefer a day shift. After getting the weekly "help on weekends" emails stating short-handed due to MT resignations, I thought......hmmmm....must be an opening on days somewhere. I've asked my TL who said she'd check. That was 2 weeks ago. ...

As I scroll through various openings and peruse the various listings, it is astounding to me how many employers do not know how to word the description properly. E.g., they fail to include the most basic info, such as whether it is a telecommuting or an on-site job (and it's not clear from the duties and responbilities). Not including those details wastes everyone's time (if an applicant is interested, they must ask the question, then await the reply). Then, of course, are th ...

I have been seeing more and more job openings for Medical Scribes. They are even showing up as part of other job descriptions. The ads that are strictly for a Medical Scribe state no prior experience needed and sometimes only a high school diploma as their only requirement – no Medical Transcription education or experience. Pay $10 an hour. Anyone else noticing this? One of many ads I am seeing: …full time Registered Nurse for an office/c ...
