Question about applying for hospital jobs

How long should I wait after applying for a job before following up? And what's the best way to followup? Also, I'd like to ask what caused them to overlook my resume if that's the case. BUT would that just make me even more of a pest and make them Black-ball me?! I HATE WAITING!!! Can you tell? :) ...

I need to write this for my own sake. I can no longer apply or test for these company positions. I am being rejected in one way or another by all of them. I have done this for going on 30 years. I can't take it anymore. It is so very very painful to deal with this. I think in my heart I have given up finding any MT position or any job at this point in my life. All I do is get angry, cry, throw things. Very very depressed and I get from friends is either God has something special for ...

I applied for one of the jobs listed on here and another site. I got a call saying they would call last Friday. When that didn't happen, I got an email saying they would call today in a certain time frame. That still has not happened. I know patience is a virtue and that they are dealing with multiple resumes, but I had an email from a recruiter in the specialty area that I was looking at, so I was hoping the number of resumes had dropped some (not just a general rec ...

I'm sure that this question has been asked and answered before, but wanted to bring it up again. Have any of you ever applied for an MT position for a clinic or hospital that was out of state and asked if you could work from home for the clinic/hospital, and you were hired by the clinic/hospital? I see so many ads for MTs, but none are in my state and more than most times, they don't list whether telecommuting is an option (perhaps it is assumed in that regard that the posi ...

I am thankful to be working for a company who provides plenty of work, easy platform, great QA, greats supervisors, etc., but the pay lacks, so I have been looking off and on for something a little better, again, pay-wise. I received an email today from a company, who has had great reviews on this board, about testing for them. So, I open the attachment and there are 14 pages in the written portion of the test, once that is completed and if I pass that, I then have to take the ...

I'll leave them as soon as a full-time position opens up. I'm trying to exit the MT field, so I am applying and sending resumes for Unit Secretary positions, Patient Registrar positions, Specimen Processor positions, etc. Right now, it looks like I will be simultaneously applying for a part-time position as well as a full-time position. There's a daytime office cleaning position I am thinking about applying for tomorrow morning, and there is a full-time family pr ...

We just found out our hospital jobs are being outsourced to Nuance. I am really worried. From the webinar we attended, Nuance said all the right things and it didn't sound too bad, but it sure doesn't mesh with what I'm reading here. We have to make a decision about whether to go with them or not by next week, and I don't feel like I have all the answers I need yet. I feel like I'm being pressured. I want to ask them questions b ...

I've just finished MT school and am starting to apply for jobs while I wait for my final grade. There is nothing in town, I live in a small town and the hospital fired all their MTs, so I need to work from home. But every ad I see says no newbies AND many say school doesn't count for experience. Of course, my school promised that most places did count our training as 2 years' experience, but I have this sinking suspicion they lied. Do I go ahead and apply for these jobs, or ...

Or how from that hospital do you live? ...

I have taken a new job to transcribe for a hospital in Canada. What are the differences? Can you post (or email me) links for websites that you use for references - looking up doctors, meds, etc. Is the spelling different? ...

It is insulting to all of us with the way that MT pay has gone down the drain, it is frustrating and aggravating to look for a "decent" job these days, trying to work out which companies will treat you fairly, which ones lie about their platforms, work, etc., and not only do these companies not want to pay us what we are worth but now I see that MANY companies are requiring the MT to have or "be willing" to purchase hundreds of dollars worth of equipment. If an employer can PROMISE IN ...

Kind of wondering if this last job posting on the jobs board might be associated with one of those "you pay us to find you a job" type of organization. I googled Medical Jobs Online and found nothing stating that are a legitimate MTSO :( ...

I tried entering my ID plus dep on the Fluency for Transcription page and it said my account was inactive. Okay, so I tried twice with Remedy to get it reactivated. Both times I got emails telling me it was working. Tried again and no luck. Am I on the right page, the one with the hideous orange splash, the same one we use to find our stats? Any help appreciated, I really don't want to have to call tech support if I don't have to. Do I even need to d ...

How long do you have to wait before reapplying for a job at medquist? ...

Okay, this is somewhat of a strange situation. I have been looking for a job in the field that I was in prior to becoming an MT 11 years ago, which would be a full-time position with benefits. Currently I am IC. I had lost my previous job due to downsizing and the office/company that I worked for basically closed it's Wisconsin branch except for a handful of employees. I just found out that one of the employees at this small Wisconsin branch of the company that I use ...

...and taking a transcription test, is it wise to type verbatim even if there are errors or try to clean it up? I'm an older MT and haven't applied in a while. I'd just like to know an opinion out there. I'd hate to not get a job because I "cleaned" something up when I should not have done so. TIA. ...

This question applies to anyone... Do you apply for an MT position even if they state they're not hiring newbies? If so, has it made a difference or is it a waste of time? Thanks! ...

I am considering applying with Q.E.D. Transcription. They seem to be a stable company to work for from what I've read. Does anyone have any experience with them or input? Any info appreciated! Thanks. ...

I am considering applying to Diskriter. I just received an email with some questions. I am wanting to know any info on the criminal background check. I had some hot checks about 7-10 years ago and paid them off then, but am worried about this background check and also my credit is not that great. Could someone please clue me in? Also, do you need to take a picture of your desk/work area to work there? I have a alcove in my bedroom where I do my work since I live in an apartment. I ...

I'm curious about the MME certification/position. Can anyone please give some honest insight as to what the difference in pay is, what the testing for the position is like, etc. I would like to apply for the position in 2 months and would like to know what to expect. Also, once you're an MME does that open up advancement opportunities into QA, CCM, etc.? Any information would be appreciated. ...

Out of 4 slots how many of those do you think will be given to MTs? I wish whoever is applying good luck. ...

Does anyone ever simply e-mail a resume to a company rather than completing the long, drawn out application they want filled out when you click the link to apply? I have 30 years of experience and do not want to spend time filling in information about every job I have ever had and why I left, where I went to school, emergency contacts, etc on their application, only to never hear from the company and would prefer just to e-mail a resume with a cover letter. Does anyone ever do this? ...

I'm assuming the competitive pay is probably 8/4. But what are their benefits like; cost, coverage, etc. Is the PTO decent? I've seen mixed messages on here. Some are really happy, some are not. Any info appreciated. TIA ...

Is anybody having trouble applying for jobs on here? I have applied to like 5 different ones and am getting emails saying my message was not delivered for some reason? Anybody else having problems?? Thanks in advance! ...

Be very careful when applying to SoftScript. They have many openings but I have applied, when through the testing, got an interview, but they never called and when trying to find answers they never respond. I would be very skeptical of working for a company like this. I also checked a little into them and found out that I was not the first one that this has happened to, plus getting work can be a problem and keeping work can be a problem. ...

Someone in post stating was trying to be certified but seems to me most want experience rather than certification. Which one most applies? ...

I know I've read somewhere on the board about this company but can't remember where. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking for steady PT evening work Sun thru Thurs (3-4 hours nightly). More than experienced with over 25 years in the biz, university/acute care accounts, except radiology. Thanks. ...

Are there NO decent places out there to work? Just when I see something that looks like what I am seeking and want to apply, all I see is negative posts. I realize that everyone has their opinion and just because someone does not like it does not mean I would not etc. BUT, there are always more than one negative opinion, and all cases that I chose to ignore warnings, I walked right into the nightmare, just like they said I would. Seriously, is ANYONE happy where they work? Please tel ...

I need to cut my hours and my present employer won't let me. I can only work about 30 hours a week. I have several years of experience on DQS and am decent on DQS ASR. Does anyone know if Medquist hires for part-time, are there are any benefits for part-timers, and what are the schedules like? Do I get to set my schedule or do they? Any info is appreciated. Thanks! ...

Hi there, I'm interested in applying at Keystrokes. Does anyone know what the current f/t requirement is? I see they are hiring only FT right now. Is this according to line count or a set schedule. Thanks for any info! ...
