Failed Medquist test in September... - BH


Posted: Dec 15, 2009

After failing the Medquist test in September 2009, they just e-mailed me today saying
Medquist - Eligible to Retest.   Just a few hours later, I got another e-mail saying "Employment Update - Medquist.  You are eligible to retest."

I thought a lot of people are losing their jobs at Medquist.  Why the desperate urge to hire, especially people who failed their employment test?

People are not losing their jobs, they are quitting because of low pay.

retest - soopasta

That simply sounds like an offer to you to re-test if you are still interested, not an offer to hire you.

I didn't get the "desperate urge" feel from what you posted. I believe that MQ, like any other company keep your tests on file and within a certain amount of time, e-mails you in case you are still interested.

Try it again, if you'd like. I disagree with the first reply, I think MQ pay is competative. I do well.

Well, good luck if you decide to re-test!

I failed other tests with other companies and no company ever got back with me and asked me to test again twice in one day and called me later that day. I don't know how much they pay per line. Do they pay more than 8 cpl? What do they pay for speech recognition?

Failed The Test For SGS??
Feb 24, 2013

So, I go through the grammar portion of the test, use a ton of reference materials when I needed to and I failed the test? Huh???!!! There wasn't even a place that told me what my score was! I have 10+ years in this field and can't see how I failed the test and it's just not sour grapes on my part.  This kind of shakes me to the core and makes me not want to apply anywhere else! Anyone else have this happen?  ...

II'll Probably Fail The Medquist Test Today Again
Nov 26, 2011

I took the Medquist test again today, but I don't expect the perfection they seem to demand.  I actually got an RLP (real live person) at Medquist to speak to me about testing 2 weeks ago.  She was a little help.  She said they have 1,000 take the test monthly so no wonder they are not interested in any particular transcriptionist.  I suspect, though, that only 20/1000 pass it.  I actually worked for Mx for 7 years part-time, and I love their platform.    ...

Regarding A September Thread About MTs Being "nasty, Miserable" People
Oct 07, 2013

Quote from your post: " MT's are among some of the most nasty, miserable... People I've ever come across."    I'm a little late to the party, but here's my 2 cents for the OP: You appear to be the kind of person who pulls 1 green M&M out of a bag and then assumes all M&Ms in that bag must be green.  There are nearly 100,000 MTs in the US, but only about 400 visit this board.  Do you see where I'm going with this, or do I have to ...

I know there is one account in the many I encounter every day that I has this little tidbit waiting to bite you in the rear end. Looking forward to 2 more fails - even though I am in the 99% range. I do not know how I am going to do any better with the sound quality and the horrid ASR I am given. I al ...
