| If you repeatedly apply for a job, your
name will be remembered - and not in a good way. Also, some employers
prefer that applicants apply through their own web site. Do not contact
them through the job board or by e-mail or fax or telephone. Again,
this creates a negative first impression. When applying for a job,
follow the instructions posted by the employer.It's also important
to keep track of jobs you have applied for, any e-mails, interviews
or discussions, and the outcome of the application. We had an applicant
who would send us e-mails: "Have I applied for a job with you
before? I can't remember." If we had responded to this, we would've
advised the MT that yes indeed - she applied with us every time we
posted a job anywhere! We also would have reminded her that she did
not pass our screening test. This person was wasting our time, over
and over and over again. |

If you want to reapply for a job, make sure you state the reasons
why this time things will be different; i.e., you took some classes
to improve your knowledge, you have more experience, etc.There is
a shortage of qualified medical transcriptionists. Make sure you
go about your job search in a way that will leave a favorable impression
and grant you the best chance for success!Julianne Weight has been
a medical transcriptionist and medical transcription service owner
for more than 25 years. For more information on medical transcription
