why Silent Type requires an in-house training? - MT
Posted: Jun 20, 2010
Does anybody know why Silent Type requires an in-house training? Is the platform so complicated that it can't be done through a Webinar or even just on the phone? I've worked for a few places over the years, and there was nothing that couldn't be handled in a phone call with, at most, some graphics in a Go To Meeting type deal. I just find it curious and makes me worry, like--if the platform is that cumbersome and complicated, do I want to work for them? Even when I was brand, brand new to MT, we did this type of thing over the phone.

[ In Reply To ..]Did you go for the training? Have you started working for them? Sounds like they may be a decent company on talking with them.

I have been with Silent Type for a year now. I enjoy the fact we work M-F schedule and no weekends. I also enjoy the fact that we have good QA. I also enjoy the fact we get vacation and bonuses. I also enjoy the fact we are offered health insurance and 401-K. Girls don't forget these perks when you are complaining about the work being light. I have been in this field for over 35 years and there is always the concept of too much work or no work in the field of transcription. Do ...
