any experience with the jobs posted on Elance?

Looking to get some information and anyone's experience with Elance. I initiated a profile and posted some proposals but unless I am a complete idiot, the pay seems to be ridiculously low. Like, who would ever work for that amount of money? I found a couple job offers, which are the ones a summitted a proposal to, that appear to be reasonable. Outside of that, to the best of my knowledge 20 cents an audio minutes is obsured. Is that not $12.00 an audio hour? So ...

of sudden disappear? I see some jobs just have a line through them and are to be removed in short time but some have posted for a very short time then disappear and they look like legitimate positions. ...

I am seeking an hourly QA position, but never see openings for anything other than line pay. Where should I be looking for these positions? ...

on these internet sites. I keep applying and never hear anything but a canned response at most thanking me for my interest in their company. I have 13 YEARS EXPERIENCE!!!! What am I doing wrong? I'm starting to get discouraged and am seriously thinking of a career change, but don't know where to go. Anyone else with lots of experience having problems finding work? ...

on their website, but after going through 2 weeks of red tape for a QA job being told they are all filled. The recruiter says, "oh, we are just waiting for background checks on the other posts." Really, it takes 2 weeks to check background on one person. Obviously, they do not understand the stress and time involved in going through their ridiculous process and red tape, and then 2 weeks to a month later, still nothing, BUT THE JOB POSTS ARE STILL THERE. Please don't ans ...

I am a new graduate and need to find a job! I am also new to this site. I got the site info from a friend that has been doing transcription work for many years. She has given me some leads, but as of now, nothing! It appears that most of these companies wnat 2 or more years experience. Does anyone know how I can start and get some experience? I suppose in anything and not just medical. Experience in transcription is experience, right? ...

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 ...

I thought this was a really cute and interesting way to raise money for breast cancer awareness. Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon made this video to help raise funds and it looks like they had such a fun time doing it. And they even included all different departments of the hospital. It brightened up my morning a little and made me smile, and I wanted to share with you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEdVfyt-mLw ...

Just to try to help any exasperated MTs out that are hesitant to leave the house for the work field. My stepson has a REAL at-home job and he loves it. He works for a company called New Corp, you can Google that. He works a real 40-hour per week schedule, although you can opt for part-time if you need to supplement MT income. He answers calls and troubleshoots for Direct TV. He also gets the full Direct TV package for free as a benefit of the job. When he answ ...

Is there anyone out there currently employed with Cardioscribes? I realize that there is some India association but at this point I am so desperate for a job I would take any kind of association with it if they were to offer. If you are employed with Cardioscribes would you either please email me or just give me some insight on the company before I apply? Platform, pay, benefits, schedule, strictness of the schedules, etc., the usual and anything that you can think of. ...

I worked for this woman as did at least two others I know of. I am so sorry you gotted tricked by her. She has been doing this sort of thing for a long time. For the longest any post that was posted about her would get deleted, therefore you could not really find out what was going on with her. She has a hablt of using people then making excuses like telling you she is moving, and she is going through a divorce, etc... She owed me and two others money for quite some ...

Is this really true? I was already on the fence about it....I despise ADHI but at the same time realize having CMT could possibly help find a job and sometimes (rarely) get a CMT diff. Not to mention the test cost $300 whether you pass or not. So now you have to pay to pass the RMT? This can't be true. I mean, if you can pass the CMT you should be able to pass the RMT w/o having to PAY for it. ...

First of all, I apologize for coming across as "gloating." I really didn't mean to do that. I have been working sporadically since February, for a few of the companies that have been mentionned on the company board, and i have posted my experiences with them, U-Scribe being one, Inscribe being one and Mediscribes being another to name a few examples. I am technically "homeless, having lived in a motel since I relocated, but thanks to friends and family, I h ...

personal issues, I am going back to school. Well, I had a job interview for an inhouse position that is perfect for me and I think I got the job!!! I am just so excited!! The bennies are awesome to say the least. I never thought I would be able to work inhouse again since I live in such a rural community. I just stayed persistent and I pray I got it! I need it so much! ...

FN has again posted an ad for editors/speech rec people to work on M-Modal. It appears that people are leaving due to this platform. FN does not appear to have acquired new accounts. See post below about the M-Modal platform and this company. This used to be a good company to work for. It's the platform that is just terrible and impossible to make a living wage when using it. Your mileage may vary. ...
