A community of 30,000 US Transcriptionist serving Medical Transcription Industry
I recently obtained my Certificate from a community college for Medical Transcription/Coding. I also work full time at our county mental health clinic, scheduling appointments for patients, answering telephones and transcribing reports for 3 psychiatrists (2 speaking in broken Indian dialect). I have submitted many resumes online to all types of transcription agencies and physician's offices. Can anyone tell me how long it takes to get a job as a remote transcriptionist and if you have any pointers, I appreciate hearing any advice you can give. I wanted to pick up part time work to earn some extra money for the holidays. I haven't heard a thing from any of the agencies that I applied to. I am getting very down and wondering if I made the right choice in my career.
