How To Spy On Potential Employers


There are several firms that might have a job opening in your area of interest, but you want to know “the real truth” about working for the firm.  Databases like MANTA and HOOVERS will provide basic information, but you’d like to find what it’s like actually working for the firm.

Besides searching Facebook and Twitter for comments, try these websites:

GLASS DOOR  Take a look inside companies with former employees.
SPOKE.COM  This site is fee based but some people will love the data.
JOBGRADES    Big firms can get really killed at this site.
THE STAFF CANTEEN   A newer site with less firms, but some big hits.
JOBITORIAL   An employee rating system

BEST NON-MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION JOB SITES


Not all transcription jobs related to the field of medicine.  Legal transcription is needed. Teleconference tapes need transcripts as do stockholder conversations.  Here are the best websites to look for opportunities:

ACCUTRANGLOBAL.COM    Has all types of transcription offerings.
FANTASTIC TRANSCRIPTS    This is a well-designed job site.
NET TRANSCRIPTS   Legal and police transcripts are the key arenas.
AMERICAN HIGH-TECH TRANSLATION  Strong in legal and police work.

MORNINGSIDE PARTNERS  Does transcripts for news networks.
THE PURPLE SHARK    Despite the funny name it is a transcription hirer.
SPEAK WRITE   This is a voice to tape dictation company.
TIGERFISH   Another fishy transcription firm.
UBIQUS.COM    verbatim trans-cams across the globe
