Transcriptionist resume help

I would really appreciate any help you are willing to give me. I have not been having much luck finding a job and am getting desperate. I am wondering if my Resume may be putting me at the bottom instead of at the top of the contact list. I have over 30 years of experience and my resume contains the names of 15 companies that I have worked for (I sometimes had 2 or 3 jobs at one time, but I include everyone because some were Acute Care and others were Clinic Specialties). I am ...

I am updating my resume, and I am wondering if I should include Acute Care experience. I do multi-specialty clinic work and H&Ps, Discharge Summaries, Consults, etc. for various Veteran's Administration hospitals and clinics. I would like to say I do Acute Care on my resume to beef it up, but because it is for the Veteran's Administration, the Acute Care reports are usually for things typically related to older patients. No trauma-related stuff, only minor surgical procedures. ...

I'm looking to get out of my job in a bad way and my resume was less than pretty. I ran across this site and it was awesome. It's free to update your resume but charges to print or email, copy, etc. But for a cover letter and resume was only $2.95 but will auto-renew at $34 if you don't cancel within 2 weeks. But I did the trial period and got an awesome resume and fantastic cover letter. It's easy to use and fun. Hope this helps a little bit. http:// ...

Dear Fellow Transcriptionists: I am in need of a career counsler who specializes in resumes. I live in Chevy Chase, Maryland, which is outside of Washington, D.C. and I need someone to help me with my current resume so that it is current.

I read every line to all of the posts here for the last 24 hours, slept on the decision and thought a lot about it this morning. Even in putting my resume together my hands were shaking ... not sure if it's the right decision or not. But I'm trusting, trusting, trusting. I feel like I've weighed every option and taken every scenario under consideration and my final decision is, I HAVE to make a move. The days of transcription with this company are extremel ...

In posting a reply in a different thread, it brought back a memory I thought I'd share. I had just turned 18 and my mom had just had surgery. I went to the hospital to visit her but wasn't sure where she was. The nurses asked me what surgery did my mom have. I replied, "A vasectomy." Oh my how the nurses laughed! They replied, "Oh no honey, I think you mean a hysterectomy." And look at me now, been an MT for nearly 20 years! ...

When I see an ad saying that companies are looking for a few good "transcriptionist's" (sic), I always think that maybe they should be proofing their ads before submitting them. ...

Hello, Any and all comments to this question would be helpful. I am new in the medical transcription field. I have been having a hard time finding a job, and one day I get an email from this company. The email said they work for Affiliated Healthcare. I googled the company name and came up with a few hits as to what this Affiliated Healthcare company is. I transcribed a sample and sent back in. I received an email the next day stating they would like to hire me, to please reply to posting. I ...

TTS is recruiting, that is ironic! - but so true to form in this business. Every day I run out of work at some point during my shift and they say "We will let you know when it starts coming back in." Meanwhile I am making no money. I used to be a happy, loved my job, transcribing in the hospital - over 10 years ago. Since my hospital farmed out to these companies that I have tried to work for - NOT happy, not even able to earn a decent living. H ...

I have a question and maybe someone out there knows the answer. I have a resume which I created on Word. I would generally send it as an attachment to an e-mail; however, I'm finding that recruiters for some reason are requesting the resume be pasted into the e.mail. If I do that, I lose my formatting on the resume and the text gets all messed up. Does anyone know of a solution? I feel really dumb! Thanks! ...

I put my resume on here and in the job wanted board. I was wondering as more people put their resumes on and yours gets older and further down the list do you still get companies contacting you or should you put a new one on to move it back up the list. I only put my resume on 2 days ago and got 3 contacts. No bad MT Stars. ...

I recently applied for a coding position at a hospital. The last line of the job listing said, "Motivated students with strong interest in coding may be considered." In my resume, I explained what I was currently doing; taking the AAPC coding course, and in using directly quoted info from the AAPC website (below where it starts...."This course teaches"... and ends with ......"volume 3 procedure coding". I am currently a student in the CPC-H® coding course administer ...

I have had six radiology transcriptiion jobs in 25 years. I had one on-site job for 10 years and the other 15 years at home. I can easilly explain what my duties were when I was on site. It was in the 1980s when the equipment I used then seems ancient now and if the interviewer is young she probably would not even know what I am talking about. Anyway if I transcribed for five companies at home doing the same straight typing radiology reports do I really need to itemize wha ...

I was hired at MM by acquisition. My prior company is gone. The 2 companies before that are gone, out of business. Therefore, I have no "recent" references. On a job application, what info do you put down for MM address and phone number? What about when they ask for your direct supervisor's name and phone number? I am afraid this is going to keep me from getting another job. ...

Its been literally about 9 years since I made a resume up. The last company I worked for was acquired by Nuance, which is how I got with them. No resume needed. The school I attended years and years ago is no longer the same name. They changed names and might not even be around anymore. My old resume is on my old computer packed away. How do you put that kind of stuff down when it has been so long?! Also, the company I worked for got picked up by Nuance. I cannot remember the exact month or year ...

And 2 seconds later add is down. I am getting so discouraged. This must be a pretty good gig with many people applying. That's just my assumption because obviously the add is now down. Does anyone know if Vista is supported? They mentioned windows 7 and 8, but not Vista, so I have to assume it's not. I applied anyway. Probably won't receive a reply, but just in case I don't want to waste anybody's time. ...
