Which company (the big 2) has the most user-friendly SM - Sara


Posted: Dec 27, 2013

pre-employment tests/testing?  I usually breeze through most of these tests, but have heard stories that some are set up to deliverately fail, that one of them is easier than the other one. 

I'd like to hear from an applicant who has tested at both of the big twp, both MM & N, if possible.

Thanks for any help.

I work for N...on my way out! - Read boards.

Unfortunately, all the bad stuff is true!

Pretty much 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. - Cannot remember much difference.

I tested a year ago for both. They both used the same system for testing, like "mttest.com" or something like that.

But as far as content, honestly I don't remember thinking one was harder than the other.

I passed both, worked for both, and for what it is worth I found MM to be a far nicer "place" to work, so I gave up on the 'ole N.

They both pay peanuts, though; hopefully you already understand this from reading the boards. There can be absolutely no dispute about that.

Your concern should be the long-term picture - Not the test

What good is taking a test and liking it, when the rest of your days working for them stinks?

I know you asked specifically about the test, but I find that a little odd. I'd be more concerned about who I was spending my days working for.

That being said, MM and Nuance have an ongoing battle to see who can be the worst to work for. I seriously think that.

So, I guess you should test for both of them, and may the worst man win.

I found the AMs and even the director of operations at Nuance to be entirely disrespectful of me as a person. They don't want your ideas, they gossip about you, and the DOO just listens to the AMs and doesn't think for herself. She is spread too thin, perhaps, which is why they are advertising now for a new one.

Worth trying MModal now to see if I can be better treated.

TTS - Friendly, Polite, Yet Professional
Mar 10, 2012

Earlier this week TTS contacted me asking if I was interested in working with them (I had applied back in 2010 and due to various working conditions offered, I had declined the position). However, this offer, I must say, was most attractive. I read the post below; however, after talking with the recruiter I found: a.  She was most knowledgeable and helpful with my questions, friendly, polite, yet professional. b.  Pay offered was close to 10 cpl (straight text) and close to 5 cpl (VR).  ...

I had no proof of ANYTHING, any of the threats, etc. I just don't want anyone else to have to go through what I did. The threatening emails about MUP or not reaching th ...
