I applied for a medical scribe job with ScribeAmerica and went through a few steps, like submitting an application, taking a typing test, and doing a virtual interview. The whole thing is pretty automated, so you don't really get to talk to anyone or ask questions until after you get the offer. When I got the offer, I found out the job actually required traveling to four different places, which wasn't mentioned at all in the job posting or application. Since I'm new to scribing and use public transport, this made me worried about how reliable it would be. Juggling different locations with various routes and travel times seems tough, even for experienced people. I emailed them to see if the schedule could be more regular or mostly at one spot, but they never got back to me. Considering how much time and effort I put into the hiring process, it was a letdown not to get a response at that point. The pay was also really low for Boston, especially with the travel expectation.

The interview process included one online video interview, which was recorded and asked situational questions, and a phone call that consisted of logistical inquiries for placement. The overall interview process was ok, but it felt very disconnected because there was no real communication with the manager or head of the department I was going to be placed in.

I saw the job posting on Indeed. A few days after applying, I got an email to schedule a phone call. A scribe who was also doing recruiting part-time called me. We had a relaxed conversation where she asked me basic questions like my background, weaknesses, and strengths. She said she thought I'd be a great fit and that I should expect an email about the next steps. I got the email with an offer letter the next day and took the job.

The interview process was straightforward. They asked a few questions virtually (similar to Hirevue) that allowed multiple tries and then they had a phone call. After that, they gave a job offer via email. There was a 30 minute call after that and paperwork. Then training and an exam (must pass to be officially hired).

- Can you describe your experience?
- What does accountability mean to you?
