Nuance testing compared to other company tests, ie Softscript.

Is anyone who transitioned from Webmedx to Nuance making more than they were 6 months ago? We got a letter in January stating we would be by now because of "performance improvements and increased production capcity." Well that is not happening. After the next cut in pay, I think I will be close to minimum wage real soon here. ...

Has there been an "official" word on when certification tests (CCA, CCS, CPC) will begin using ICD-10. AHIMA site indicates "once ICD-10 is implemented," which I assume would be October, but I swear I've seen posts that people have taken the tests using ICD-10 recently...? Thank you! ...

Just took a test with one company. Getting ready to take a test for another company and realized that the test company is one and the same. Does this mean the tests are the same? Would anyone know if the companys that use the same "tester' can access the same test? I just don't want to do it again and find out I wasted my time. Thanks! ...

I was thinking of applying to SoftScript since they have straight typing. I have tons of acute-care exp, but I am so tired of taking tests. Just wanted to know may be long the test is and how hard. Thanks. ...

I gave them a try and tested, looking up every stinking answer, verified usually with Stedmans and I got a 74%???? sheesh. ...

I just finished testing with Softscript. Whew that was kind of hard -- much different than what the other companies have you do. You really had to know your medical terminology and about disease processes and what medicines are used for what. Now I just have to wait to hear results and if I have a job or not. This is so agonizing at times!!!! ...

Can anyone please tell me about the Softscript testing and interview process? Is it that mttest one? Is there an actual transcription/typing test (wondering if I need to dig out the footpedal)? About how long is the interview and what sorts of questions will I be asked? I am just trying to be completely prepared. Thanks for any information. ...

I tested for a company who stated that my skills were not up to their requirements, which I find very difficult to believe, as I have been in this business for 10 years, nonetheless, I am beginning to wonder if some of these companies are not scamming us. I was required to transcribe four different files with the shortest one being 6 minutes and the longest 12 minutes, but apparently, they were not good enough. Again, I am baffled as I kept all the files I did and I did not find one ...

Is it acceptable to contact a company a few days after testing to inquire about your results? Or do you just wait until you hear back from them...or maybe not hear at all? ...

Anyone know of a company that doesn't require testing? ...

Applying for a new job is a job in and of itself these days. Is anyone else having this ?? All these tests on these job applications. They are sometimes hours long. Some of these test reports are HARD. They are harder than most I do now. I work for MW now. I don't really have time to go through all these tests for hours and hours for FREE. I'm thinking of just not doing it and forgetting about that particular application. One of them I really was interested in too but what if I do all ...

What do you think about objective test for Nuance? I thought that part was fairly easy, but not the transcription part. I can do great on actual transcribing in job setting, but for some reason I always do poorly on testing for jobs. Am I the only one who has trouble or are there are other people like me here. Very frustrating when trying to get job and you cannot even pass the stupid test!!!!!! ...

I've applied with Nuance & would like some info about their testing procedure. Is actual transcription required (as opposed to only multiple choice, etc.)? If so, what kind of foot pedal is needed? What is the level of difficulty, is it easy or hard to understand, ESL, etc? (I have visited another forum in the past ... several MTs who had applied to both M-Modal and Nuance stated that one of the 2 was fairly easy for an experienced MT to pass; however, the other was h ...

Does anyone know anything about the company SoftScript? ...

Hello! I would like to know some pros and cons of a company that I have an interview with tomorrow. They are called Softscript. The only reviews I see on here are from 2010. One is good and one is bad. Anyone currently working with them? ...

Softscript--What a Confused Company http://www.softscript.com/ AVOID THIS COMPANY!!! What a bunch of really unorganized and mismanaged people there. The owner and HR offered me a job (in writing) then called me and rescinded it even before they got my overnight package. This all happened after stringing me along for a month. Buyer beware. ...

I applied to and tested for Nuance on Friday. Any idea how long it takes to hear back, one way or the other? TIA :-) ...

I am taking the Nuance test and can't make the audio any louder. I have followed the directions within the test to save work, press Take a Break key, enter the test again, and also turned computer off, etc. blah blah; Bottom line - audio starts out loudly but degenerates in volume and clarity. Did anyone else have this problem and how did you fix it? Thanks for any help you can provide. I will fail this if I can't hear it. ...

demotions and promotions at the company. The story is... ...

Hey SoftScript employee below trying to defend company, I am writing in all caps too, but I did not post anything prior. SOFTSCRIPT DOES USE A BAIT AND SWITCH TECHNIQUE. THIS HAPPENED TO ME! Want proof? I worked for . The recruiter is . I never even was trained for the position I was hired for, but a week into working for SS, I was contacted by HR stating, "You are not the right fit." I stayed on for a month, until a position with another company came al ...

Have read lots of negatives. My basic question is about whether there is enough work available and what the benefits are like especially health insurance. Am just really looking for some accurate current info. Thanks. ...

Help!!!! I am not able to complete the testing on Nuance mt.test site because my computer will not allow this program -- Javascript. Has anyone else had this problem? I am just wondering how you get around this. On the yellow Active X add-on site, it will not allow this. I am at my wit's end as to what to do. I have not tried going on Technical Support. I have tried that before and they never really help much. So very useless, why ...

I am so tired of going to MTjobs.com and seeing the same Nuance and SoftScript ads over and over and over. Anyone else feel that way ? ...

Trying to decide which to test for. Tried to send an email to SS regarding their current add for a transcriptionist for an orthopedic account but it returned undeliverable using their email address provided on their site. Anyone know of another way to contact them? Thank you ...

Nuance Fiesa is about to drive me insane. 0.25 deduction for not putting a period in. REALLY???? I will contest it, but hate the amount of time we have to spend defending ourselves against this crappy QA system. Thinking about SoftScript. Anyone able to compare how their QA stands next to Nuance. Any info for comparison purposes welcome. I realize there is no such thing as a perfect company, but... Thanks. ...

I've heard bad things about both, but which is worse? Pay per line? Pay for headers & spaces? QA torture? Thanks for any advice! ...

Some days are more aggravating than others with this company. ...

I understand several other WMX employees have gone over to Transcend. Am going PT myself and wanting to know how you all like it as compared to WMX. TIA. ...

Approved time sheet for last week. Used the new pay plan to see the difference. I had over 99% and under 10%. Good thing because I MADE LESS MONEY with this new plan, almost $40. That's for 1 week. So multiply that by 4 weeks - $160 per month. I don't think so. Already took a pay cut by doing VR. Time to start sending out resumes. ...
