Have an interview with TeleTech@Home tomorrow - TransitioningOutOfMT

Posted: Sep 24, 2014

They are a customer service at home type of company. Most positions start off at $9/hour depending on the client. I'm so nervous. I want out of MT so bad, I don't want to make another decision I'll regret.

Good luck! - sm

Yay for you! Even if it doesn't turn out to be exactly what you hope, at least it's guaranteed hourly pay, and you'll still have time to check out other types of work. Be sure and keep us posted as to how it goes.

I think Teletech is similar to WestAtHome, in which case some of their clients are catalogs like Lane Bryant, Sears, etc. Right?

Good Luck! Nm - Janet

Well, you can look at it this way. You know the old saying, "...from a frying pan into a fire?" Well, the way I see it, worst that will happen is a fire into the frying pan!

That being said, I quit MT completely 3 years ago and had a couple of jobs that did not work out, but NONE (I mean NONE) were as horrible as what MT ended up becoming.

So, take the bull by the horns and best of luck!

WooHoo!!!! Buy-Bye per line pay....sm - TransitioningOutofMT

It is a seasonal position that will lead to a permanent one. It Starts out at $8.50/hour and the shifts are anytime between 5:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. EST. Training starts on 10/9 and is paid (same hours as shift). It'll be anywhere from 24 to 28 hours. Holy crap, a steady paycheck. I'm not sure what I'll do. The hours work perfectly for me as I'm work during the day at the school cafeteria. I'm out, I'm finally getting out.....

I have an interview for a full time medical office assistant position tomorrow morning. Things are still going pretty well for me with MT right now, but part of me feels like I need to get out now.. BEFORE the bottom falls out... (even though in my situation, there's been no indication to think it it will) I'm sooo scared to make this change ...scared that I won't get the job, but also strangely scared that I WILL get it.... I have no idea what it pays, but it&# ...

Just wondered if anyone is happy. Currently tested and have an interview. It is for the current job posting. I am needing something part-time that actually has work. I have two jobs right now and one is more famine than feast and I really need to get away from that one. It is going to be mostly VR...but if I get the Escription platform that would be nice since i do like that platform. Thanks for your help!!! I have worked for the Q before and well, I can ...

I have a job interview at a huge hospital tomorrow for a medical records analyst. I'm very excited that I even got a call for an interview, but I'm also scared beyond words. I haven't had a face-to-face interview in 12 years and I've become such a hermit that I'm scared to death of going for an interview, driving there, answering questions, etc. I went back to school, just finished and got my degree, applied for this job and now I have an interview so i ...

I was wondering for you all working at Synernet and working third shift, is the shift differential decent? I was recently laid off from my job of several years and nervous about having to start over elsewhere. I was making a decent wage at my last job, but of course due to downsizing lost my job. This company "seems" to sound good, but don't they all at some point? Thank you in advance, and if you don't feel like posting on the board, just message me. Ag ...

I'm interviewing tomorrow morning with Amphion. Even after all of these years in the MT business, I admit that while I'm excited, I'm also a bit nervous. Has anyone else interviewed with Amphion recently and can clue me in on what to expect? I was told the interview process would take about 30 minutes but no other details. Thanks for any input anyone can offer :-) ...

I turned in my resignation 2 weeks ago and my last day is tomorrow. No more nagging about line counts and MUP when they can't even pay me minimum wage (although mine is the second highest in the nation). I've done this work for almost 9 years now and have enjoyed it, but the pay is just getting too low and I'm sure I can find something better in another field. Good luck to you all. ...

my new life of not dealing with trying to produce a medical report for a MTSO to look good and make profit. How things have changed in the medical world and it is getting ulgier by the day. The demands put on MTs are totally unreasonable. I am walking away because of retirement and I am thankful I can. I honestly do not know if I could survive under the stress of trying to produce perfection for such minimal pay and know that a MTSO is making as much as me for each line I ...

I got an email from HR today that my husband was 'accidentally' added back on my insurance. Note that he has not been on my insurance for almost a year. How this happened I have no idea. That means my paycheck tomorrow will have about $400 deducted from it just for that error. The email basically said "Ooops, sorry about our mistake you will be reimbursed with *next* paycheck." That means a 2-week wait for their mistake. I am not desperate for the money (thank ...

I know there aren't very many of you that probably like your boss enough to send them a gift, but if you DO happen to have a nice boss it wouldn't hurt to tell them so they don't become mean and cynical like the rest of them! Employers like to hear it when they do a good job just as much as the employees do! ...

my line count, glug, glug down the crapper. Have gone over the tutorials about a dozen times, but there are sooo many changes, the main one being in the appearance of the screen.

I know some of you are on lockdown already and for that you have my utmost sympathy and empathy. We are supposed to start tomorrow. There are NO HOURS on the swap board and we have been running into NJA every day since MQ did the management shuffle. I have my resumes out and took some tests this weekend. Hopefully I will hear something soon so I can get off this merry-go-round that just isn't merry any longer. I don't want to worry every wee ...

Why no news? I hired someone to come in tomorrow (a mother's helper) to help with the kids as I assume we are starting tomorrow (originally told on 10/5 but then someone on this board said 10/11). I don't know how many hours I can work or any details whatsoever. Anyone else hear anything? Do I need to scrounge around for ANOTHER IC job? ...

My mentoring phone call is tomorrow. Does everyone get a mentor as well? What do they talk about? I have a list of questions for her but they're mainly about complaints. I'm even going to ask if I can't do my job good enough, then they should do it themselves or even send it back to India. I want to know if this mentoring program is the first step in my being fired. I'm very concerned about my job and maybe I shouldn't ask these questions, but the way they treat us ...
