A community of 30,000 US Transcriptionist serving Medical Transcription Industry
Has anyone heard of or done business with this company? They are offering employment after I take their "tests" and possibly purchase software or textbooks. Just wanted to make sure the company is on the up and up. Any information you can provide me would be greatly appreciated.
Not only are they DEFINITELY a scam, but I found 2 identical websites with different names; and there are probably many, many more.
Transcription America
Healthcare Employment
These 2 websites are IDENTICAL, except for the name. These people are so arrogant, that they actually use exactly the same Testimonials, and only change the salutation.
On the Transcription America website, the testimonial starts:
Dear TA,
I wanted to "Thank You" for providing a professional training program.
On the Healthcare Employment website, the testimonial starts:
Dear Colleague,
I wanted to "Thank You" for providing a professional training program.
The sad part is that there are so many “match book” graduates out there desperately looking for a job – any job – that they fall victim to these scumbags because they either do not thoroughly research the company before they get sucked in or they have not found MTStars yet to clue them in on what the “real” world is like.
Sometimes I wonder why these so-called schools do not warn their graduates about these types of scams. How hard can it be to hand them a “things to watch out for while searching for a job” fact sheet with their final grades?
Boy, I really am starting to yearn for the “good-ol’-days” when you went to a building to interview and you knew exactly who you would be working for.
Off my soap box now.
Good luck to you.
