So it occurred to me... - MT

So I was going to apply for one of the jobs on the Job Seeker Board...it's one of the bigger companies, which I usually try to stay away from, but it's the specialty in which I'm really good at, so I said what the heck, I'll give it a try.  So as I'm fixing my resume to send it in, it occurs to me that this is how these big companies get the names of the little companies to swallow up whole.  So I decided not to apply.  People complain all the time about not getting call backs or how their company is constantly advertising when there is no work and it occurs to me again that I'll bet this is their ploy to get names of hospitals and clinics to gobble up and then send the work overseas!  It's a little suspicious how you keep hearing about how they buy this hospital and that hospital and hundreds of MTs are without jobs, yet those people who do get hired for these places have NJA constantly, get docked to part-time because they can't meet their line count, etc.  How is it that these hospitals have enough work to keep a whole transcription department busy, but then they get bought out, and yet there are still many MTs who have absolutely no work?!  It has to be that as hundreds of MTs are applying for these companies, which require YEARS of experience, they are using your resumes as their scouting tools to get more business that they turn around and send overseas to make tons and tons of money.  MTs talk about how we should stage a walk out or what have you to show these companies "we aren't going to take it," but what we should do is boycott the nationals and do not apply there for jobs when they are the ones stealing away all the work.
