    I am an MT with 1 year experience na. Med trans is not for everybody. Maraming pitfalls yan. I have seen colleagues who are still struggling despite having experience. Maybe it’s because of their limitations in terms of English usage, hearing acuity which is a skill that takes time to develop along with typing skills and some other factors. MT companies prefer to hire those with 6 months to 1 year experience and preferably with allied medical background. You are lucky if you are nonmed and get the job. Once hired, you should maintain accuracy and line counts because that is where the company earns. As a beginner or new grad, they will not pay a starting salary that’s high if you do not meet their standards. Tyaga muna sa mababa. It will take time before you could demand. You also have to have the discipline and the determination to learn to be better every day. Good luck to all of you!
