Having such a hard time finding employment

Hi everyone my name is Amanda and I am a recent MT graduate. I have been completing application after application and I either get an email saying that they are looking for 2 or more years experience, they are not currently hiring, or no response at all. I was just wondering if anyone could offer any advice as to how to go about getting a foot in the door. I am getting really discouraged and this process is so grueling!! ...

Hi everyone my name is Amanda and I have recently completed a MT course. I am finding it very difficult to find work...I have completed several applications and keep getting emails that say they are looking for more experience, they are not currently hiring, or I get no response at all.

I have been a MT for three years. I have been working for somebody else and have recently decided to start up my own business. I have sent out over 200 letters/business cards to area doctors and thought for sure it would produce a better return. I was just wondering if anybody has any advice. I'm trying not to get discouraged and I just keep plugging along but I'm open to any and all thoughts. Thanks in advance! ...

I am looking for something part time, like 15 hours a week. If anybody can message me and let me know of what companies can get me tested and hired soon, that would be great. Also, it is a definite to avoid companies with issues, especially those who don't pay. I know, all companies have issues. I work part-time as a teacher's aide and really thought they would have me full time by now. Well, they don't and I'm getting in a hole I can't climb out of without a second job. ...

I am frustrated and probably should not even post this - but I have been out of school for 4 years now. I landed a job before school was done with a PT/OT clinic full-time. I had wanted to get experience typing hospital records, but have not been able to find work locally and when I apply online I am told I have no experience, even if I pass their tests, I am not given a job. I went into this field because my instructors told me I would have no problem finding work in any area ...

There are these 3 horrible ESLs, and I mean HORRIBLE--I cannot believe they are even allowed to dictate they are so all over place, mispronouncing every third word-- but my question is WHY, out of all the other fairly good dictators I do on a regular basis, are THESE 3 constantly being audited. If I really believed it was random, (and I just can't) I would have less of a problem with this whole Fiesa thing. But WHERE are the audits on the reports by the GREAT dictators?&nbs ...

I used to be a high producer. Now I just don't care. I dread having to start work everyday. They have completely squelched my spirit and have sucked the life out of me. Now I'm just praying for a miracle so I can get them out of my life. They don't deserve me. ...

Hi.. I was wondering, what is the least number of hours you can work part-time with employment status. Thanks! ...

Cut made with a 15 blade into deep tissue. Is this fragment or complete? I am so confused. I would want to add a "was," but does it not having a "was" or "is" make it incomplete? I have been researching grammar, but I know sometimes medical fragment sentences tend to be acceptable. ...

After being switched every couple of months to new accounts I am now having trouble making any lines. Lately I have been wondering if they have changed how they count lines. Also I am on an account that is done in the UK which means 100 percent ESLs and zero normals. Anybody else struggle? ...

I wanted to know some pointers to get ahead with understanding a doctor's dictation in certain parts of a voice file. I am having a hard time even though I have been doing MT work for over a year. Any suggestions would really help. Thanks ...

Anybody having a hard time making their line count lately? ...

Thanks for sharing ...

If your employment with an MTSO is "at will," doesn't that apply to BOTH you and them? The legal meaning of "at-will employment" is as follows: "A common-law rule that an employment contract of indefinite duration can be terminated by either the employer or the employee at any time for any reason; also known as terminable at will." So, given this legal rule, why are we deemed ineligible for rehire when we leave an MTSO without what they perceive as fair notice? ...

For anyone who has changed from full-time to part-time status, have you still been able to get time off when needed, and what exactly is meant by flexible part time (flexible for whom)? With all the recent changes, I am finding it necessary to begin heading in another direction. ...

I took a test for Medquist three months ago and was told I didni't pass, even when I know I had to have. I got a call this afternoon from someone in HR about wanting me to please take the test again.

Has anyone else answered ads for them. You do a really EASY test. They offer to train you for free.. then send you emails... basically to schedule a job interview. You text them. They send you this agreement, which says that in order to work for them you need to plunk out $450 to buy their software.. This does not quite seem on the level to me.. I have been working in this industry going on 20 years. I work in house right now.. but job situation is precariou ...

In a nutshell, I graduated from Career Step in 2007 with High Honors and worked for TRS for a year. I was happy at TRS and produced quality work (98.5% accuracy). Then life intervened and the past few years have been rough. The good news is, I survived I would like to get back into transcription, but I am having a hard time filling the "recent" experience qualification most reputable companies have. In an attempt to refresh my skills while I am waiting on rejection emai ...
